Why Boise State Will Win
Fresh off an 82-64 dismantling of Illinois State in the semifinal round, the Broncos aim to notch their first-ever three-game early season tournament title in program history. BSU will take on Iowa State – a perennial top 15 team over the years that’s expected to regress a bit this season. Iowa State is guard-heavy and undersized, so if Christian Sengfelder can extend his range like he did in the semis (3-7 from deep), he could present a spacing issue for the ISU defense. Getting comfortable early and playing strong defense throughout the night will be key for Boise State.
