Quote from Bronco7454 on October 12, 2023, 1:47 pmThe Boise State Volleyball team has their fourth match in 8 days tonight @ San Jose State. This match can be watched online at the Mountain West Broadcast website:

OR it can be watched on the Mountain West streaming TV channel if you "stream" TV. This match is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. M.T. tonight. That's roughly 5 hours from right now.
Boise State will be trying to regain their form after a 1-3 loss to MWC leading Utah State on Tuesday and San Jose State will be trying to get back on track in the MWC after two straight 0-3 losses to Wyoming and Colorado State. Boise State is 5-2 in the MWC standings and San Jose State is 2-4 in the MWC standings. But San Jose State has a better overall record at 11-8 compared to Boise State's overall record of 9-8.

Quote from Bronco7454 on October 13, 2023, 8:25 amNice win last night for the Boise State Volleyball team - winning in 3 straight sets over San Jose State.
The Spartans have now lost three straight MWC matches by identical 0-3 scores to Wyoming, Colorado State and Boise State. That's nine straight sets that they have lost and it probably isn't going to get any better on Saturday as they will be hosting the MWC team that is currently # 1 in the MWC volleyball standings. That being Utah State.
To be honest Boise State looked pretty tired in that match last night and after having to play four matches in 8 days I don't blame them. It's insane scheduling by the Mountain West Conference IMO. But now they get a full week to rest up before having to play @ San Diego State next Thursday and then hosting U.N.L.V. in Boise on Saturday October 21st.

Quote from BSUBass77 on October 16, 2023, 6:12 pmThis begins the three weeks where BSU really struggles to win games. The notable exception was in 2016 when Maddie O'Donnell became the leader of the team and was just determined to finish the mid-season stretch very strong. In the third to the last game the Broncos would not go down and won a five set match against a much more powerful CSU team. The Broncos won the last two games and won the title.
This year is going to be bigger test. Our defense is getting better, but it will have to get much better to win New Mexico, CSU and UNLV. USU is the best team (by far) in the conference and I am hoping we can force a 5th set in Logan.
We need to win five of the remaining nine to get in to the tournament. I think we can, but if we lose steam during this stretch, the our team will be sitting at home during the tournament.
