Well, I said we'd win one of them and picked game one, and we were smashed, so I'll pick UNLV tonight.
Only one example in the back to backs of UNLV getting annihilated in the first game and that was at UNR, a 30 point loss. In game two, UNLV competed well even though the Rebels lost by 10 ultimately. Tied with three minutes to go, UNLV was ahead with four minutes to go before an awful, can't score, can't defend 4 minute stretch that allowed some goofus Pillsbury Dough Boy look like Karl Malone while launching ill advised three pointers from all over the court. But they had a chance, a legitimate chance.
I think the Rebels will show in the same way tonight but the difference is they'll get it done in a non-Menzies sort of way during "Winnin' Time!".
UNLV 69
Boise 68
Otz heads to midcourt and thrusts his fists in the air and exclaims victory.
