STOCKTON, California — Marcus Dickinson nailed a trey to give Boise State the lead in triple overtime and the Broncos held on to beat Pacific 82-76 on Saturday night.

Jessup totaled 22 points and Dickinson had 16 for the Broncos (3-2).
The Tigers were a finger-tip away from winning in regulation when Jeremiah Bailey grabbed the rebound off Jahlil Tripp’s missed 3 and scored underneath, but time had run out and the teams moved on to overtime.
