BOISE, Idaho (AP) -Dior Lowhorn scored 20 points and Kwame Vaughn had 18 to lead San Francisco to a 79-76 victory over Boise State on Saturday night.

With a little more than a minute left, Vaughn put the Dons up 73-71 by hitting a layup down the lane and the ensuing free throw.

San Francisco shot 51.9 percent from the field and hit 65 percent of 3-point attempts.
