I like the Broncos here for a couple of reasons. First, they have an elite defense, ranking 30th in points surrendered. They were also 10th in the nation in rebounding margin, and they are taking on a Cornhusker squad that finished 16th of 18 Big Ten teams in offensive rebounding. The Broncs have shot 70% inside the arc in the first two games of the tourney and should be able to have a huge advantage in second-chance points. The other factor that favors Boise is the fact that the Huskers have been awful in close games, going just 1-6 in games decided by four points or fewer. If this one plays close, the Broncos should have a nice advantage.
