What's Next: Pac-12 Readiness Initiative for a New Era of Home-Court Advantage at Men's Basketball

11/25/2025 2:00:00 PM | Men's Basketball, Bronco Athletic Association

In anticipation of joining the Pac-12 Conference, the Broncos are taking steps to strengthen their home-court advantage and honor the supporters who make it all possible

Dear Bronco Nation,

We're off to another exciting season of Boise State men's basketball, with big home wins and an atmosphere that keeps getting better. We appreciate each of you and your support of our Broncos in creating the gameday environment in ExtraMile Arena. As we prepare to enter the Pac-12 Conference, we're taking an important step to strengthen our home-court advantage, elevate the fan experience, and honor the supporters who make it all possible.


What's Happening

Beginning with the 2026–27 season, Boise State Athletics will implement a full reseating of ExtraMile Arena for men's basketball and launch a new, high-energy courtside fan section. The BAA will also reallocate men's basketball parking to maximize convenience and get fans as close to the arena as possible.

What is Reseating?
Reseating is a periodic refresh of all season-ticket locations. Every season ticket holder selects new seats using a transparent priority system that rewards loyalty and ensures fairness while allowing us to realign the arena for the future of Boise State basketball.

Why Now
Demand and expectations have never been higher. We've sold out season tickets two straight years, reached four consecutive postseasons, and now join one of the nation's top basketball conferences. This is the right time to modernize ExtraMile Arena and position our program for long-term success.

Reseating allows us to:
  • Build the strongest home-court advantage in the Pac-12
  • Reward loyal supporters through a clear priority points system
  • Create upgraded seating experiences
  • Align ExtraMile Arena with our long-term strategic vision

Introducing: Our New Blue Chaos Fan Section 

(Official Name to be Voted on You!) 

Inspired by elite NBA game environments and our own Section TwHELLve, this new high-intensity fan section will be positioned courtside in P11–P13 (with P12 expansion based on demand). It will be a centerpiece of the reseat, designed for our most passionate, loud, and Blue Collar fans.

Imagine:
  • A more intimidating presence behind the baseline
  • Greater courtside access for fans who bring unmatched energy
  • A counterpart to The Corral Student Section that makes ExtraMile Arena the toughest venue to play in the Pac-12
This is about putting our hardest-working fans closest to the action.

What This Means For You

Your loyalty – and your support – will be reflected in the seat selection order. All season ticket holders, BAA members, and Lyle Smith Society members will select seats by priority and will receive full details well in advance.

Key points:
  • No fan will lose their status as a season ticket holder. However, it is not guaranteed that each fan will retain their current seating location
  • Group-specific policies and pricing (Courtside, Blue Chaos, Lifetime Seating, General Bowl) will be shared in December 2025
  • The student section and location of the Blue Thunder Marching Band will not be affected at this time
  • Philanthropic giving will help secure high-demand seats but is not required to remain a season ticket holder
  • A BAA fan advisory committee has helped ensure the process is fair and equitable
  • ExtraMile Arena will become the homecourt advantage you've always dreamed of! 

What's Next

Today: Initial announcement & Blue Chaos Fan Section Waitlist Launch
December 2025: Reseating update with policies, loyalty considerations, and pricing maps; mandatory opt-in form sent to season ticket holders
Spring 2026: Opt-in deadline for season ticket holders
Summer 2026: Seat selection by priority order
Fall 2026: Finalized seating and ticket delivery

How We'll Support You
We're committed to clear, proactive communication. You can expect:
  • A dedicated landing page with FAQs
  • Step-by-step email updates
  • In-person appointments with BAA staff (upon request)
  • Clear breakdowns of pricing, priority points, and timelines

Thank You

This initiative is about more than seating. It's about building the next era of Boise State men's basketball and creating an elite, unified home-court environment. Together, we will make ExtraMile Arena a place Pac-12 opponents fear.

More details are coming soon. Be on the lookout for follow-up communication in the coming weeks regarding opportunities based on your basketball membership. 


EPIC Lives at the X.


Go Broncos!
