UNLV vs Utah

This is a fun team to watch. I try not to complain about officiating but these guys are terrible. Second half should be a shootout. Not gonna try to get ahead of myself cause this is my first chance to see the team in action but we could be in for a very fun year.

Hot damn! The Rebs looked good in the 1st half.

And what was hat I saw? Legit half court offense?

Seems like we have opportunity to be tough playing different styles.
 
No Smith tonight? He came back in the game yesterday after being so hurt he couldn’t finish his free throws. Maybe he’s a little sore today.

But this performance is even more impressive considering Smith hasn’t played.

Yeah, by now his ankle is probably swollen the size of a baseball though.
 
As excited as I am, talking about the Elite 8 is stupid at this point. I just want this team to keep looking great in nonconference play. If I look ahead I’ll look ahead to conference games at the most. We haven’t seen great success in conference play in forever.
 
Crowd was rocking at the T tonight, way more fans then Monday (maybe 7k?). When Jojo hit that and 1 three and the crowd went nuts, felt like old times. Haven't been 5-0 since 2011-2012.

Dead on. It is fun to get up for these games but you gotta win the conference if you want bragging rights. Not feeling the flexing I saw tonight. Show me what you got in march.

Elite 8?! I dont think this team is Top 25 yet. Our bench has to become more consistent, then we can have the crazy talk. Until then, its win the next game.
 
I agree that any elite 8 or even tourney talk needs to be tempered. I don’t see any more than 2 losses (U of A, Northern Iowa) for the preseason. What I really want to see is the Rebels not start the conference season with 2 or 3 L’s in the first week. Once we get to the halfway point of conference will I allow myself to think about post season.
