Why it matters

This victory gives Boise State a regular-season sweep of New Mexico and keeps the Broncos in the hunt for a top-4 finish in the Mountain West standings, which would earn them a first-round bye in the conference tournament. The loss is a setback for the Lobos, who entered the game tied for second place in the conference.
