But the next 10 plus minutes would be disastrous for the Runnin’ Rebels as they saw its lead disappear in a manner of minutes.
Down six, the Broncos scored the next 12 points to go up six, and they finished the first half on a 29-11 run to take a 12 point advantage going into halftime, and 12 points was the final margin of victory for the Broncos as they defeated the Runnin’ Rebels 78-66 on Thursday night.
