When Colorado State and Boise State faced of Jan. 31, the Rams were still reeling after the loss of senior guard Gian Clavell.
The Broncos, at the time, were expected to challenge San Diego State for the Mountain West regular season title.
Oh, how things have changed.
CSU seems to have found Clavell’s replacement in fellow senior guard Antwan Scott, and the Broncos have lost three of their last four games, including a 61-53 defeat at the hands of last-place Air Force. Despite returning All-Mountain West players in Anthony Drmic and James Webb III, Boise State has been wildly inconsistent, especially on the road where it has lost its last two games.
