UNLV
No. 16 Brigham Young has long been anticipating its game at No. 8 Utah on Nov. 22. But if the Cougars aren’t careful, they could get tripped up at Air Force on Saturday.
With the exception of a late scoring flurry by Wink Adams, UNLV failed to impress in its only exhibition test Tuesday night.
The confidence of UNLV’s defense was so apparent against UNR on Sept. 27. The Rebels were flying to the football and delivering big hits.
Thirty years later, Robert Smith still is automatic from the free-throw line.
To guarantee a bowl appearance this season, UNLV needs to help itself and receive help from others.
Before Wink Adams was recruited to UNLV, he was a student of the basketball program’s history. He knew all about the great players and teams of the past, and it was his dream to be a part of it.
After leaving UNLV in 1991, Anderson Hunt played basketball in France, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Venezuela.
In a lot of ways, UNLV basketball coach Lon Kruger walked away pleased after Saturday’s closed-door scrimmage against Arizona State.
Many times during UNLV’s five-game losing streak, the Rebels failed to make a key offensive play here or get a crucial defensive stop there.
