This will be the best show in Vegas this weekend. Can't wait to get in to the Allegiant. Senior Night, perfect home record, chance to lockup a trip to the MWCCG and home field advantage. I think the team will be prepared and motivated as usual.

One of the more important MWC games of the year, and it is logjammed with quite a few great games, and is stream only.  Would gladly have the conference swap this game's with the SDSU vs Fresno game so this could get on the tubes.  

4 months ago when the schedules were locked in people thought that Fresno vs SDSU was  a possible forerunner to the MWCCG. Go figure.

They certainly were never going to figure this one would be important.  But perhaps we should have some flexibility in these later weeks.  I am sure FS1 wouldn't mind an actual relevant game than any SDSU game from the last 2 years.

Barry Odom has 9 wins at UNLV which puts him at 10th on the all-time coaching wins list”

 

A coach who is in their first year coaching is already in 10th place all time with wins. Wow. That says a lot. Or maybe they have only had nine previous coaches all time.

I gave up reading too soon. Literally the next sentence is “There have been 11 head coaches at UNLV in the 45 years as a D-I program

Sounds like a fair prediction.  Teams normally get a 3 point bump for playing at home.  I'm expecting a good game.  It wouldn't surprise me to see either team win by a large margin or have it come down to the last drive--either way as the MWC says, my anticpation is at the PEAK! :)
