Fresno State has the edge with Robinson, defense, and they shoot the ball a little better. Still it’ll be close and whomever executes the best in the last four minutes wins. 

We have Royce Hamm now.  We can defend Orlando Robinson!

The split was especially pronounced against San Diego State. When Hamilton and Williams played together in that game, UNLV outscored the Aztecs, 38-35. With one or both of them out, San Diego State had a 27-17 advantage.

I'm really interested in this game. It should give us an idea of how good that Fresno win was or wasn't.
