UNLV basketball 2017-18 schedule finalized
AT&T SportsNet, the primary outlet for the NHL’s Golden Knights, also will show several UNLV basketball games this season.
The network will televise seven Rebels games, six of them in the Mountain West.
The network, formerly ROOT Sports, is not available in Las Vegas on Cox Cable. It reached an agreement last Friday with CenturyLink. AT&T SportsNet’s parent company, AT&T Communications, owns DirecTV.
UNLV and the Mountain West announced game times and TV information Thursday, finalizing the Rebels’ schedule.
The Rebels will appear nationally 16 times — 10 on CBS Sports Network and six on one of the ESPN outlets.
Two game dates were changed and will be played on CBS Sports Network. UNLV’s game at Fresno State was moved up a day to Jan. 23 and will be played at 8 p.m., and the Rebels’ trip to New Mexico was moved back a day to Feb. 25 and will be at 11 a.m.
The Rebels open their season against Florida A&M at 7 p.m. Nov. 11 at the Thomas & Mack Center, and it will be streamed online at Mountain West Network on Stadium. Their first conference game is at 8 p.m. Dec. 30 at the T&M against Boise State, and it will be televised by AT&T SportsNet.
