Boise State, Defending the Home Court
In what will hopefully be a long ongoing series, I'll be highlighting Boise State's Active Home Winning Streak. BSU extended their home winning streak to 14 last night after taking down Portland (Portland Game Preview/Thread Fanposted HERE). That bumps BSU up into a tie for 12th with #17 Creighton for the time being. As you can see games are being played on all kinds of dates so I'll update this chart at least once a week, probably conveniently on days when BSU gets bumped up. Here's the top Active Home Winning Streaks in the NCAA Division 1:
| Rank | Team | Next Opponent | Next Game Date | Streak |
| 1 | #5 Duke | vs UNC Greensboro | 12/19/2011 | 40 |
| 2 | #1 Kentucky | vs Chattanooga | 12/17/2011 | 39 |
| 3 | #2 Ohio St. | vs S.C. Upstate | 12/14/2011 | 30 |
| 4 | Notre Dame | vs Maine | 12/08/2011 | 24 |
| 5 | Temple | vs Villanova | 12/10/2011 | 23 |
| Purdue | vs Eastern Michigan | 12/08/2011 | 23 | |
| 7 | #6 North Carolina | vs Long Beach St. | 12/10/2011 | 20 |
| 8 | #24 Harvard | vs Fla. Atlantic | 12/22/2011 | 19 |
| 9 | George Mason | vs Duquesne | 12/21/2011 | 18 |
| 10 | Bucknell | vs Richmond | 12/17/2011 | 17 |
| 11 | Texas St. | vs Huston-Tillotson | 12/28/2011 | 15 |
| 12 | #17 Creighton | vs Houston Baptist | 12/17/2011 | 14 |
| Boise St. | vs Fresno State | 12/19/2011 | 14 | |
| 14 | Long Beach St. | vs Eastern N.M. | 12/19/2011 | 13 |
| Long Island | vs Saint Peter's | 12/17/2011 | 13 | |
| 16 | Col. of Charleston | vs Tennessee | 12/14/2011 | 12 |
| 17 | Akron | vs Ark.-Pine Bluff | 12/15/2011 | 10 |
| Boston U. | vs #24 Harvard | 12/10/2011 | 10 |

Boise State has over a week before they play their next home game so it's highly probably that by the time they play Fresno State on the home court, December 19th, they'll be tied with Long Beach State at 13. As far as I can tell, the only team ahead of us that could fall at home is Temple. Temple vs Villanova will be a great game in Philly. Start spreading the word, this squad is defending the home court well and it's a great time to be there watching them. Lets pack it on Monday, December 19th vs a former foe and make this a place MWC teams are nervous of coming to!
