5 things to look for Saturday when UNLV visits Wyoming

Five things to look for when UNLV's football team plays at Wyoming at 11 a.m. PST Saturday.

1. Snow could fall on game day, so that might force both teams to rely even more on their ground games.

2. The game, though, could turn on who produces the better passing game. Having quarterback Blake Decker back in the lineup is a huge boost for the Rebels.

3. Turnovers are important any time, but they can be especially critical in dicey weather conditions. Holding on to the ball could be an issue for both teams.

4. Which team wants to finish the season strong and which one wants to just finish it. The side with the higher energy level likely will emerge the victor.

5. UNLV is a 3-point favorite, so the game very well could come down to a field goal at the end. Even a chip shot would be no sure thing if the field is slick.
