Boise State Finishes Second at Chicago Style Invitational

The Broncos had UCLA in their sights, down just 15/100th's of a point with one rotation to go. But the Bruins poured it on in the final event to score an easy win tonight. Boise State just can't get over the hump with an elite team.

That said, Boise State finally got a 196 team score, something they will have to do each and every week if they want to crack the Top 10.

Boise State in 2nd at Chicago Style Invitational

Boise State scored 49.2 on vault, what they needed to have, but just 48.9 on floor exercises and the Broncos are already down to #7 UCLA by more than 3/10th's of a point.

Through two rotations, UCLA has 98.450 to 98.100 for Boise State. Illinois has 97.725 while Missouri has 97.575.

UCLA has two score of 9.9 or better, while Boise State has zero.

Boise State Will Try to End Skid Against Air Force

Saturday's match up between Boise State and Air Force will match two of the bottom dwellers in the Mountain West Conference, but the separation between the two is considerable. Air Force defeated Boise State 74-59 on the Broncos' home court earlier in the season.

Air Force has struggled to a 1-7 conference record, but Boise State is 0-8 heading into tomorrow's game. The Broncos have only played well against nationally-ranked teams and if that holds true, it doesn't look good for Boise State's chances--Air Force is 11-10 on the season. One bright spot for Coach Leon Rice--freshman Anthony Drmic is currently third on the all-time freshman scoring average list at Boise State; Drmic is averaging 12.5 points a game.

CBS Sports Network will televise the game beginning at 7 p.m. tomorrow.
