NCAA Basketball action resumes today when the Portland welcome the Broncos in what should be an entertaining match at the Chiles Center. If you plan to watch Portland vs Boise State live, stream online, or on TV today then first check out our Pilots vs Broncos preview below.
Portland Pilots vs Boise State Broncos
The Pilots go into this one with a 75% winning record, and naturally as favorites over the Boise State Broncos. Portland will be sure to keep an eye on the current Boise State streak (Won 1), and take necessary precautions. The Pilots are averaging 70.8 ppg this season (good for number 156 in the NCAA), but not as good as the Broncos’s 74.5 ppg average in the 2010-2011 NCAA season.
Playing on the road, the Broncos will need to play to their strengths and their 108 total steals is their strongest statistical attribute (and good for number 12 in the whole NCAA Division 1). The Boise State are 7-4 this season overall (0-0 in the Western Athletic Conference) and today will hope to improve their 3 – 3 record away from Taco Bell Arena.
Portland have been dominating their opponents this season in the 3 pointer percentage departement. Their 43.6 3 pointer percentage is the number 3 best among the 350 colleges in the NCAA D1, and that will be an area that the Boise State coaching staff will want to balance out today if they want to dampen Portland’s 5 – 1 home record. After 12 games, the Pilots hopeful will be counting for a victory to improve their standing in the West Coast Conference.The 4,852 expected fans in the Chiles Center will be in for a treat today and if you want to join them and watch Portland Pilots vs Boise State Broncos online live streaming on ESPN3 or on your TV – then make sure to tune in at 22:00 ET today.
