Maybe the Wolf Pack’s 31-28 win against Utah State on Saturday was an inevitable letdown following the Wolf Pack’s epic four-overtime game at Boise State last Sunday.
Maybe the short week between games didn’t leave the Wolf Pack with enough time to properly heal and prepare for the Aggies.
Maybe it was impossible to match last Sunday’s […]

Wow, that was a painful first half. The Wolf Pack started out dominating both sides of the ball and grabbed a 14-0 lead. Then it looked like the Pack got complacent, the offense struggled, and the defense and special teams reverted to the form it showed over the first six weeks to go into […]

Call me crazy, but I think the Wolf Pack grabs its first WAC win today in Logan, Utah. Eventually somebody will put the Wolf Pack in a tough spot by taking the run option away from quarterback Colin Kaepernick, but that won’t happen today.
Talk about letdowns all you want, but Utah State just isn’t very […]

The Western Athletic Conference had a great weekend from a national publicity standpoint. Boise State’s 69-67 win against Nevada is the highest scoring game in NCAA history and will go down as one of the most exciting games this season. A national ESPN audience watched the Wolf Pack and Broncos rack up more than 1,100 […]

Nick Fazekas took the floor in Las Cruces, New Mexico, on Tuesday to take on a Reggie Theus-coached team in a hostile environment.
What, you thought those days were over?
Not with the beautiful fate of preseason NBA basketball. Fazekas returned to the House that Reggie Built as a rookie power forward for the Dallas Mavericks, and […]

I think ESPN analyst Bill Curry has a man-crush on Nevada quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
Even as both teams racked up enough points to reign down the unpromised fury of Y2K on the Bronco Stadium scoreboard, Curry spent most of the night praising the Wolf Pack’s freshman quarterback basically everything - scoring touchdowns, throwing the ball out […]

Nevada coach Chris Ault’s prophecy was almost fulfilled.
Since returning for his third stint as head coach for the Wolf Pack, Ault made good on promises by restoring the Mackay Stadium advantage and beating UNLV three straight times.
Taking down Boise State was the last item on the checklist, and the Wolf Pack almost earned the improbable […]

The Nevada men’s basketball team showed up in uniform for media day on Thursday, and center JaVale McGee looks like he had a productive offseason.
The official Web site lists him at 7-feet, 237-pounds - which is bigger and taller than last year. That kid’s a scary athlete.
With the possible exclusion of New Mexico State, […]

How does a team rack up 702 yards of total offense and outgain your opponent by almost 300 yards and still get beat?
The answer might seem complex – impossible even – but it’s actually pretty simple if you consider Nevada’s 49-41 loss to Fresno State on Saturday.

Scouthoops.com reports that four-star shooting guard Mark McLaughlin has given a verbal committment to Nevada.
The Wolf Pack now has verbals from two Top 100 recruits this season. Five-star power forward and Scouthoops.com’s No. 19 prospect Luke Babbitt committed this summer.
McLaughlin is rated No. 77 overall.
Babbitt and McLaughlin are pssibly the Wolf Pack’s highest-rated prospects of […]
