UNLV on thursday

[stymeman]

so what's everyone think, I think we'll be competitive as usual, but playing the Rebels not a full, full strength kinda has me worried. Thanks for a fun season guys looking forward to next year and if you get any CIT or CBI games on the road!!! UNLV 71 UW 64

Rebels seem to always get the calls in the Thomas & Mack. No way refs let them exit in the first round.

The Rebels definitely have an advatage at home. Having said that, if there's one team in the MWC that can mysteriously vanish with a team full of top 100 recruits it's UNLV.

Nothing would satisfy Wyoming fans more then watching an under-manned Wyoming team beat a talent rich Heath Schroyer team in the tournament.

If WYO plays their "A" game. We win 67-61.

If we don't show up at all, we get blown out 43-74.

If only half if our guys show up we lose 58-68.

Here is to playing like we did against CSU in Laramie! We're gonna need it.

Thinking about Wyo in this tournament only creates frustration. I know fans claim every year is "the year", but I think with Nance this team had a legitimate shot at ending up in the championship game.

Agreed.
But at 40/1 odds I would kind of like to place a bet on us. Not that I even know how LOL

Odds are never 0, but with Nance, our chances would have been much better.

Game is at 230 on a Thursday, UNLV has under-performed so far this season...UNLV fans should be busy or in class.

I don't expect UNLV to have a huge home court advantage. They aren't a feared team.
Plus, Sobey has his parents in Vegas, and we all know he averages 33 ppg when his parents are there to watch him.

Pokes pull the "upset" over the 4 seed.
