This shows you have freaking sad things are.

You know how you are DEFINITELY going to get crushed… but then you end up playing nearly perfectly and the other team just doesn’t happen and you pull the upset? Happened with Marv at Reno, maybe last year against SDSU, or last year against Creighton. Just one of those games where things click … and you know it’s not a “where has this been” but it’s a total fluke. But you smile and take it.

That’s what I hope for in a handful of our games where we aren’t the better team.

USU is currently -5.5. Seems like a no-brainer to bet big on the visitors. This is where the pendulum sometimes swings. We do have talent and find a way to put in a good performance.

USU 73
UNLV 77

Most important, we get free tacos.
 
I’m tempted to go because for 52 bucks you get 4 tickets and 4 coupons for chicken fingers.
 
CKK era always plays down or up to their opponent. Wouldn’t be surprised it’s close, pull off a win or it’s over by halftime. It’ll be interesting to see if the players throw in the towel early this season or not. I don’t know.

USU 73
UNLV 56

That’s my guess.
 
I’ve got zero expectations for a win. CKK is beginning to wear the expression of a defeated coach who only sees one outcome at the end of the season. If his team talks are anything like his media comments, I don’t see the players rising to the occasion. They’ve got eyes and ears.

Edit: Just checked the score. 5 min in and UNLV has scored 4 points. No bueno.
 
Unlv getting hosed by calls and shooting bad but rebs up 1 with 420 left first half. Rebs are hustling way more than in recent games.
 
Wow, great win with horrible offense and shooting. Guys did hustle. How many clutch free throws has DJ missed over the last 2 years?
 
Well just when I saw no light, the door gets cracked open. Caught the last minute of the game. Announcers said we were down 7 in the final couple minutes?
 
Yeah, a couple big threes by Rish, Dedan with a couple good buckets, USU didn’t score over last 3 minutes (almost 3).
Wow. We’re the ones who usually buckle in the clutch. Nice to see them execute. Sounds like they played with some fight. I didn’t think CKK had it in him to instill in the team.
