BOISE, Idaho (Interstat) — A surging San Jose State looks to build on its biggest win of the season when it visits a reeling Boise State in a Mountain West Conference men’s basketball rematch Saturday at Taco Bell Arena. The Spartans (7-19, 3-10 MW) stunned first-place Nevada 87-71 on Tuesday, snapping a six-game losing streak. The Broncos (15-11, 6-7), once in the conference title chase, have lost three straight and five of their last seven. All momentum hinges on the play of each team’s standout. San Jose State is powered by guard Colby Garland, who is averaging 38 minutes and 22.1 points over his last seven games. He erupted for 29 points and nine assists in the win over Nevada. In the teams’ first meeting on Jan. 27, a dominant 89-58 Boise State road victory, Garland was held to 10 points in 30 minutes. Boise State will counter with forward Drew Fielder, who scored 16 points in that January rout of the Spartans. Fielder has been a bright spot during the Broncos’ slump, averaging 16.3 points over his last three games, including a 27-point performance in an overtime loss to UNLV on Feb. 13. The Broncos have traditionally owned this series, winning 16 of the last 17 meetings. Their defense, which held San Jose State to 32.8% shooting in the first matchup, will need to rediscover its form after allowing an average of 82.3 points during the three-game skid. Meanwhile, the Spartans, who also got 21 points from Adrian Myers and 15 from Sadraque NgaNga against Nevada, will seek to prove their latest performance was a turning point, not an aberration. A win in Boise would give them their first two-game conference winning streak this season. For Boise State, the game is critical to stop its slide and improve its seeding for the upcoming Mountain West tournament. Tipoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. PST Saturday.
