Bill Ireland won his first against Saint Mary’s, but I think that was before the Gaels started recruiting all those 6-foot-10-inch power forwards from New Zealand.
UNLV Football
The bad news for UNLV is it won’t be able to face New Mexico again until next season.
HOW THEY SCORED
Maybe New Mexico will again provide the relief UNLV so desperately needs. The winless Lobos were just the tonic last season when the Rebels visited New Mexico and ended a streak of four straight losses — three by at least 20 points – with a 34-17 victory.
When New Mexico took the field at Texas A&M to open the 2009 football season and usher in the Mike Locksley era, Lobos followers were optimistic.
Matt Murphy has been an integral part of UNLV’s offensive line since his first season, when he earned freshman All-America honors.
When Mike Clausen moved from quarterback to safety last week, Caleb Herring knew his chances to take a college football snap skyrocketed.
