Ding, ding... maybe we weren't included because we wanted to build MWC up or had our eyes on bigger prize and those snakes wanted to screw us
Snooty Predators
- Thread starter WarthogRebel
- Start date
When our Lady Rebels went to SUDS last fall and beat them on their home court by about 40 points they never got over it. Here our football team is light years better than they are and here we are.
I don't know man.
I mean you are trying to build the best most viable conference possible and you are going to shut out a school many people think is a no brainer over some petty grievance?
And all 5 other schools involved who also are attempting to create the best conference possible agreed to box out that school as well?
This is true.
But money creates ceilings for schools and their ability to compete.
It becomes more and more difficult over time to keep pace.
Can UNLV do well in a CUSA or an AAC? 100%.
But over time if they aren't getting the same revenue as other G5 programs through media deals they are at a disadvantage.
We all saw how long it took and how hard it's been for UNLV to turn the corner in football.
I don't think ending up in a lesser conference (potentially) than we are now some how catapults the program forward.
Shifting gears a bit, I'm sure you all will be glued to the set tonight (7PM Pacific, 3-0 WSU vs 3-0 SJSU in Pullman, The CW network). Game is apparently a near sellout. Friday night in Pullman, the fans will be juiced. Worth watching simply to see all the coed camera shots. Looks like the marquee game for the MW this weekend. You guys and SDSU both have byes I guess?
SJSU lost both of their coaches and starting QB. You will beat them. They are not at UNLV level.
To be fair, I wanted to beat sdsu 75-0 before all of this. But to your point, lets aim for over 100. Lets give Ricky White video game numbers.
If you want to find out, switch place with OSU and put the game in Pullman. I guaranteed you, that stadium will be sold out within a day.
The PAC is becoming MWC. You are not going to be better anytime soon. And you are not going to get UNLV.

"Tonight's reruns of The Flash, Gossip Girl, and Supernatural will not be seen this evening. Instead you will get the Mighty Spartans of San Jose in Pullman Washington to take on the Cougars of Washington State."
So far the former Navy coach, which I won't even attempt to spell his name, is doing a really good job at SJSU. Former Coug QB Emmitt Brown isn't very tall, 5'10" I believe, but has a decent throwing arm. He can scoot if he has to. Very scrappy player. Their star receiver Nash is his go to guy. Nash a top receiver in the MW imo. Their defense has one DB that his name escapes me at the moment that plays like our LB Woodard. Don't underestimate this team. They play well but, they got their hands full vs WSU.
Who have they played? I'll wait... an over rated AFA team and 2 State teams that aren't States? About as light a schedule as you can go so far
Ken Niumatalolo is as good as a human as there is in college sports. I think he will do okay at SJSU, but the Spartan cupboards are hella bare. They're not good at all. Wazzu by 14+
I thought they would be way worse after losing Brennan and Cordiero. As a team they seem like they've been together for a couple of years. Credit to their coach and coaching staff.
Being the only CFB game nationwide at the time, I believe they will be high. So will our fans. Weed is legal in Washington after all.
My dad's a West Point grad so my DNA is to hate All Things NAVY.
But Ken is one of the classiest human beings on the planet.
Also screw Navy.

These cameras suck... it feels like watching HS football.
Imagine rushing the field after beating SJSU
Well it wasn't a full fledged field rushing, just a bunch of (likely drunk) students who sat there for over 4 hours and watched us come back from 14 down in with about 10 minutes left. Sorry if we have excitable fans. I suppose politely clapping from their seats would have been more civilized.
Nothing to do with being civilized, everything to do with awareness. You’re 4-0 and beat SJSU at home.
You look dumb.
Jesus Christ. SJSU showing they belong to the x
how do you guys thumb your noses at SJSU with a non invite? Lol
Cougs like to have fun and party. At 11:15 on a Friday night, the kids were excited. Does that make us look dumb? Guess what, we don't give a shit what anyone else thinks. But keep up the hate.
If somebody doesn't come back with a 'Yo momma' I'll be disappointed.
Not from me buddy. This isn't my board, and I am respectful of that. If you want to talk shit and call WSU fans dumb, come on over to my board and have at it. Cougs are always happy to banter with folks from UNR Southern. We are in awe of your esteemed history. I mean shit, WSU had only been around for 70 years when Nevada Southern got its start.
Wikipedia: The first college classes, which eventually became the classes of UNLV, were offered as the southern regional extension division of the University of Nevada in 1959 in a classroom at Las Vegas High School.
Respect for Rebel-Net prevents me from going on. And I remain optimistic that we will soon be conference mates. Even if you have to bring your mothership UNR with you....

Ok the UNR Southern quip cannot go unchecked.
Yo momma!
Post a link, I will be there. You took two OT to beat SJsU at you home ? I will be there.Not from me buddy. This isn't my board, and I am respectful of that.

You’re right the first classes for “UNLV” occurred in a high school in 1959.Not from me buddy. This isn't my board, and I am respectful of that.

However, classes (even in 2024) at Washington State are STILL in Pullman, WA.
