ABOUT CSUN:Â The Matadors are 3-4 on the year, but have won three of their last four games. Nine different Matadors are scoring at least 4.7 points per game, led by Atin Wright's 10.2. Former Bronco Trent Johnson is leading the Matadors this year as the team's interim head coach. Johnson played from 1974-78, helping lead Boise State to its first NCAA Tournament appearance in 1976. He finished his career with 1,155 points and 702 rebounds - still ranking 16th and fifth in Boise State history, respectively.
SERIES HISTORY:Â Boise State leads the all-time series against CSUN 8-0. The Broncos are 3-0 against the Matadors during Leon Rice's 12 seasons as head coach. The last meeting was Dec. 28, 2019, a 103-72 Boise State victory at ExtraMile Arena. Abu Kigab made his home debut in the game, scoring a career-best 33 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. Boise State is 2-0 on the road in the series, last visiting in 2006.
STAT STUFFER:Â Marcus Shaver, Jr. paced the Broncos Friday against Tulsa, leading the team in points (17), rebounds (8) and assists (7). He is one of 14 players nationally to post those figures in each stat column in a game this year and the first Bronco to do so since Chandler Hutchison's triple-double against Portland exactly four years prior (Dec. 3, 2017), a game in which Shaver played for the Pilots.
CALLING CARD:Â Boise State head coach Leon Rice claimed before the season that the 2021-22 Broncos had a chance to be the best defensive team in his 12 years as head coach. Through seven games, they have made good on that prediction. Boise State is holding opponents to 60.4 points per game. The Broncos have held seven opponents to fewer than 70 points and five under 60.
