San Jose State is coming off its best performance of the season, an 87-71 home victory over Nevada. The Spartans had lost 14 of their previous 15 games.

“San Jose just played the best game of the year for them,” Boise State head coach Leon Rice said. “They just beat Nevada by (16). They played us great the first half down there. The game was just a little too long for them with not as much depth—especially inside—and we did a great job with that.

“They’re playing good right now. Their record has never added up to when I watch them. When I scouted them and watch them on film, you’re like ‘They look pretty darn good and pretty explosive.’ Now they just beat Nevada by (16), they’ve got a lot of confidence. We’re going to have to defend.”

Junior guard Coby Garland torched Nevada for 29 points, six assists and three steals. Garland is averaging 19.3 points, 4.5 assists and 3.3 rebounds this season and has topped the 20-point mark in five straight games.
