Live Thread Double Header: Utah vs. Utah State and UNLV vs. Nevada

Double header tonight is also rivalry night with Utah State traveling to Utah which is always a really good game and then Nevada-Reno traveling to UNLV. If you are feeling gutsy weigh in Peru State at Wyoming

Utah State Aggies @ Utah Utes 6 PM MST 

Peru State @ Wyoming Cowboys 7 PM MST

Nevada Wolfpack @ UNLV Rebels 7:30PM PST 

The two TV games should be great because Nevada and Utah State are the top of the WAC and will challenge for the potential only bid from their league, and a win agaisnt UNLV and Utah will strengthen their RPI.  Nevada has not been as good in recent year since Trent Johson left town a few years ago, but they are still a high level WAC team that will be able to compete with the Rebels.

Nevada is 1-0 on the year and was not challenged against Montana State as they won by 14 points.  In the one game on the year the Wolfpack had four players in double figures lead by forward Luke Babbit who poured in 26 in their opener.

UNLV also was not challenged in their opening win over Pitt State with a 91 point performance, so it is hard to tell how good UNLV really is.  Plus, this game will give us an idea on those transfers that are now eligible.

Yes, it is football season, but here is a chance for an early season live thread with some hoops.  Sorry for the delay pesky computer problems.
