Can a bishop and a knight checkmate a long king?

My king's about 5'8, can he be mated by a bishop and a knight?

If a long King controls 3 horizontal squares each side plus the one it's standing on and the 3 in front and 3 behind, there's no way an opposing Bishop, Knight and King can control those 13 squares and mate at the same time.

Yea. I won a game OTB with a knight and a bishop
