ABOUT NEVADA: The Wolf Pack is 7-5 this season and off to a 1-0 start in Mountain West play. After starting the season 1-4, Nevada has won six of its last seven, with the lone setback coming at No. 6 Kansas. The Wolf Pack is led by preseason MW Player of the Year Grant Sherfield, who is averaging 18.8 points, 6.6 assists and 4.9 rebounds per game.
SERIES HISTORY: Nevada leads the all-time series 51-28. The Broncos and Wolf Pack met three times last season, with Nevada coming out on top each time. The Broncos have dropped their last six road games in the series, including two last season. Boise State's last win in Reno came Jan. 13, 2016.
60 IS THE LIMIT: Boise State is riding a seven-game win streak, thanks in large part to a historic defensive performance. During the win streak, the Broncos have not allowed an opponent to score more than 60 points. It is the fourth time in program history Boise State has held seven consecutive opponents to 60 points or fewer, and the first time since the 1988-89 season. Two of the previous three streaks stopped at seven games and the school record is eight, set during the 1986-87 season. During the streak, opponents are shooting 37.5 percent from the field and 27.6 percent from three-point range.
ON THE ROAD: Boise State has won 36 Mountain West road games since joining the league prior to the 2011-12 season, the third most in the league over that span. Since the conference reached its current membership in 2013-14, the Broncos have won at least three Mountain West road games every year. Only Fresno State and San Diego State can make the same claim.
SEVEN STRAIGHT: Boise State enters the new calendar year riding a seven-game win streak, during which it is outscoring the opposition by 18.1 points per game. It is the Broncos' ninth win streak of at least seven games in Leon Rice's 12 seasons as head coach. Boise State is shooting 49.3 percent from the floor and 39.8 percent from three-point range during the stretch.
CALLING CARD: 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 14 games, they have made good on that prediction. Boise State is holding opponents to 58.2 points per game. The Broncos have held 13 opponents to fewer than 70 points, nine under 60 and two under 50.
