BOISE -- The Boise State men's basketball team will play in the National Invitational Tournament for the second straight season.

The Broncos are a 4-seed and will play the Washington Huskies, who finished 7th in the Pac-12 this season. Despite being a higher seed, Boise State will likely have to play on the road due to the fact that Taco Bell Arena is a host site of the NCAA Tournament this year.

This is the sixth time in program history that Boise State will play in the NIT. Just last year they won at Utah, 73-68, before falling in an elimination game at Illinois, 71-56.
