Why Boise State Will Win
In short, this one shouldn’t be close. Sacramento State has two wins all year, both against D-II teams, rank 307th in KenPom, and don’t have a rotational player taller than 6’8″. Boise State is the complete opposite, having started 8-1, jumping 24 spots in KenPom up to No. 61, and boasts one of the larger front courts in the country. This could be one of those games where Chandler Hutchison takes over and begins to take a stronghold on the player of the year honors. Broncos should cruise.
