Each team won on its home floor during the regular season. Boise State is 6-2 at home against the Rebels in Leon Rice's 11 seasons as head coach.

SO MANY SCORERS: Boise State is tied for the national lead with seven different players who have scored at least 19 points in a game this season. Emmanuel Akot became the most recent Bronco to hit the mark thanks to a career-high 19 points Friday, at Nevada. He joined Derrick Alston, Jr., RayJ Dennis, Devonaire Doutrive, Abu Kigab, Max Rice and Marcus Shaver, Jr. on the list.
