CSU basketball misses chance to jump to top of Mountain West, falls to Boise State

FORT COLLINS, Colo. — The expected Boise State punch-back came with force, just a little later than expected.

This Boise State team is almost certainly NCAA tournament bound and was bound to have a vengeful reply.

It didn't truly come until the second half but it was enough to boost Boise State to an 85-77 win on Friday night at Moby Arena.
