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 [...]

Fanatical friend 1: “I have an idea. I was drinking a beer last night and I says to myself ‘Wanna know what would be fun? WAC fantasy football.’”
Me: “You’ve got to be kidding. You realize the mere acknoweldment of this will be enough to scare women off of as long as we live in Reno?”
FF1: [...]

Nevada is bringing the WAC Basketball Tournament back to Reno.
With the talent the Wolf Pack has coming and developing on the roster already, hosting the tournament has obvious benefits.
The Wolf Pack should have a chance to make another top 10 run in 2oo9 and 2010, and having the tournament in Reno will help the Wolf [...]

The Nevada football team doesn’t deserve any criticism for scheduling Nicholls State, a Football Championship Subdivision (more concisely known as Division I-AA) team.
For starters, the BCS big boys have made scheduling FCS teams about as trendy as the iPhone. Even Hawaii scheduled enough FCS opponents this season to technically qualify for the Big Sky championship [...]

Well, that was fun for about a quarter and a half.
Nevada played pretty much straight up with Nebraska for the first 20 minutes of Saturday’s game. Sophomore quarterback Nick Graziano made some nice throws, the defense held sturdy against the Cornhuskers, and cornerback Jonathon Amaya even gave the Wolf Pack a fleeting hope when he [...]

So apparently there’s a fairly significant football game on Saturday.
Nevada has a chance to earn national respect when it plays Nebraska in the Wolf Pack’s toughest game since coach Chris Ault returned the program to respectability.
As such, the next few days will be devoted to everybody’s favorite event – the start of football season (who [...]
