BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Darius Brown II scored 19 points, Ian Martinez had 18 and No. 18 Utah State beat Boise State 90-84 in overtime on Saturday.

Great Osobor had 14 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists for Utah State (18-2, 6-1), which earned its second straight win. Josh Uduje had 18 points on perfect shooting from the field, and Isaac Johnson finished with 13 points and 11 boards.

The Aggies trailed 75-72 with 1:05 left in regulation, but Uduje made a jumper with 10 seconds to go. After O’Mar Stanley went 1 for 2 at the line for Boise State, Martinez converted a tying layup with 1.3 seconds left.

Utah State then went 10 for 11 at the line in overtime. Martinez made four free throws in the final 14 seconds.

Tyson Degenhart scored 24 points for Boise State (14-6, 5-2), which went 2 for 10 from the field in overtime. Stanley had 20 points and nine rebounds, and Chibuzo Agbo scored 15 points.

Uduje was 6 for 6 from the field and 5 for 5 at the line. The reserve also grabbed six rebounds.

BIG PICTURE

Utah State: Despite the Aggies’ hot start, this was only their fourth game against a Quad 1 school. They are 2-2 in those games. Utah State has four more games against Quad 1 teams on its schedule.

Boise State: The Broncos are looking to regain their form at home. They had a 22-game home win streak after a 75-68 victory over Colorado State on Jan. 9. But they have dropped two of their last three home games with the loss to the Aggies.
