UNLV Football
In the world of UNLV football, all things are relative, comparable only to those Rebels teams that have struggled for so long.
UNLV cruised to a 38-7 victory over Western Illinois tonight at Sam Boyd Stadium, reaching .500 for the first time under fourth-year coach Bobby Hauck.
UNLV made sure, emphatically in fact, this would be no repeat of Southern Utah or Northern Arizona.
Three games into the football season, and so much is still unknown. Some questions will be answered Saturday night.
Students will now be allowed to enter the tailgate area with their student IDs. The fee for students to enter the area was dropped to $10 per vehicle, but non-students will still have to pay $20 per vehicle. Last year, the fee was $40 per car.
UNLV football faced a schedule to begin this season that most would have forecast a 1-2 record following three games, no matter the level of improvement the Rebels might have exhibited (or not) to this point. But Saturday night is significant.
Their high-octane offense is eating up the yards, but Green Valley is hungry for wins to go with the stats. They take on Palo Verde as Friday night football returns.
Caleb Herring knows what fellow UNLV quarterback Nick Sherry is going through because he has been there himself.
UNLV football coach Bobby Hauck shouldn’t have any problem getting his players’ attention this week even with a lower-level opponent rolling into town.
Fresno State coach Tim DeRuyter didn’t anticipate having extra time to prepare for Boise State and certainly not under these circumstances.
Caleb Herring may or may not start at quarterback against Western Illinois on Saturday. Coach Bobby Hauck said he would evaluate Herring and Nick Sherry this week in practice, and likely will make the determination on game day.
At the start of his Monday news conference, Bobby Hauck, UNLV’s football coach with the 6-34 record — 7-34 now, after coming from three touchdowns down to beat Central Michigan on Saturday night — said he would answer questions only about the Chippewas.
UNLV rallied from three touchdowns behind, scoring 31 consecutive points to stun Central Michigan 31-21 tonight at Sam Boyd Stadium.
UNLV would seem to be a mental wreck after a stunning run of errors in its first two games, but looking inside a football player’s head is almost impossible.
