Broncos Return Home to Host New Mexico

WHAT'S NEXT
Boise State women's basketball will host New Mexico on Feb. 7 at 1 p.m. MT. The game will be broadcast on the Mountain West Network and 670 KBOI AM.

GETTING HOT
Boise State is currently on an eight-game conference win streak, the longest the team has achieved in a single season since 2015-16. If the Broncos extend to nine-consecutive wins, it would be their first time doing so since joining the MW in 2011-12. The last instance of a nine-conference game winning streak in a single season for Boise State occurred during the 2007-08 season when the Broncos were in the WAC.
*NOTE: Only regular season games over a single season are included in the winning streak; the conference tournament is excluded.

New Mexico has won its last four games with the most notable win being a 68-57 victory over UNLV. New Mexico sits third in the MW standings with a 16-7 overall record and 8-4 in conference play.

Boise State leads the all-time series 18-12 and 11-3 at home.
