UNLV2001

UNLV at Vanderbilt

Recommended Posts

Defensively, UNLV was led by a pair of senior linebackers. Grad transfer Rayshad Jackson finished with nine tackles while Javin White had seven, including 2.5 TFL and an interception he returned 44 yards to set up a field goal.

 

STAT OF THE GAME:

UNLV won the first-down battle 22-12.

 

REBEL OF THE GAME:

The UNLV offensive line did not allow a quarterback sack and led the way to 206 rushing yards from multiple runners to allow the Rebels to control nearly the entire game, including winning the time of possession battle 37:27 to 22:33.

 

QUOTABLE:

"Really excited for that locker room. Those kids have worked extremely hard starting from spring ball. Things haven't started the way we wanted them to this year, but these guys show up every day and they have had a great attitude. Defensively, I thought we played as well as we have in the secondary in a long time. Offensively, we got back to our roots - that's getting downhill and running the football on people and it showed today."

-UNLV Head Coach Tony Sanchez

 

REBEL NOTES:

-Vanderbilt will return the game by playing in Las Vegas in 2023

-UNLV played an SEC team for the first time since traveling to Tennessee in 2004

-The Rebels improved to 2-4 all-time vs. the SEC with their first win over the league since downing Arkansas in the 2000 Las Vegas Bowl

-Javin White hauled in his second interception of the season and the eighth of his career

-Kicker Daniel Gutierrez shined on special teams, nailing a career-long 44-yard field goal as part of 10-point afternoon

-Oblad threw two touchdowns for the second straight game

-The 10 points were the least scored by any UNLV opponent since an 80-8 win over Idaho State in 2015

-The 10 points were the least scored by a UNLV opponent in a game played away from Las Vegas since the Rebs stunned Wisconsin 23-5 in 2003
