The Mountain West men’s and women’s basketball tournaments are a little more than a month away.
While both Boise State squads have played nine league games and have nine more left on the schedule, their games Wednesday against UNLV could play a crucial role in determining seeding for next month’s conference tournament.
The Bronco men (10-12, 5-4 MW) are currently tied for fifth in the conference standings with UNLV (11-10, 5-4), and only the top five teams at the end of the regular season earn first-round tournament byes. Meanwhile, the Bronco women remain neck-and-neck with New Mexico for the regular-season title with identical league records of 8-1.
