WYO @ Nevada

[BeaverPoke]

Well game 2 of the MWC. Let's get that record to 14-1 and 1-1 with a win on the road.

I think Wyoming dominates this game. Maybe not a 20 point win, but I think that the Pokes control the game the whole time. I think the players are probably fired up. Especially Larry Nance Jr. considering he only had 4 points against Boise St.

Time to blow a team out and show everyone that even though we lost to BSU, we are legit.

Pokes win 71-60

I still feel the same way there will not be any gimme games in the mwc every game will be a battle until Martinez is back!

Papa Shy will have them ready and pissed off

On the other hand, Nevada knows the Pokes can be beat and so will be more confident (especially at home)

UNR just got whipped by AFA......they'll have their backs up against the wall, knowing if they lose today, MWC play is gonna kill the Pack.

We already saw how Boise played with their backs against the wall. While I don't expect Nevada to rain 3 pointers I'm not going to rule anything out!

Of course anything is possible, but I'm predicting a win similar to the win in Boise last winter. The classic "welcome to the MWC!" loss at home for Reno.

I get the impression that he is working on teaching the team to move on and not remain upset over a prior game going into the next game.

The lack of depth on this team is really scary

Ugliest game ever.....

Coach Shy, its time to take off the rope around ADAMS AND LET THIS KID GO

I agree...Adams is going to be something special as the season progresses.....

 

[wyocowboy2014]

I don't understand why Adams doesn't drive more. His speed and athleticism is unmatched by most teams.

He's got a decent cross-over to beat most everyone in the league...I agree, he should be using it more to get separation and either drop a 15-footer or take it to the rim if it's there.....

Its because he is a true freshman and the coaches dont trust him quite yet but is time to let this thoroughbred loose.

How did the Pokes get so terribly out-rebounded? Nevada overwhelmingly up on offensive rebounds. Unless some strategy modification, Fresno State takes one from the Pokes.
