WAC Wednesday

[alliecat]

YTD 5-4 (+2.29)

2 Unit
UTEP +1 (-110)
Overall, UTEP is the better team, but Nevada has decent home court advantage. Both are undefeated in conference, but UTEP has rolled (+26ppg in conf) and has the better depth. UTEP is also more athletic and quicker and has the athletes to neutralize Fazekas. Nevada is young and can turn the balll over. I'll always give the better team a chance when a dog, even on the road.

1 Unit
UTEP/Nevada O141.5 (-110)
Also like the over as UTEP will push the pace and I think Nevada will sucummb. Nevada plays a half-court style, but will have to run a little when it gets down.

thanks lowelll - game did not go as I thought exactly, well the first half went better than expected. Nevada really showed some moxy being down by 24 and coming back to take a 7 point lead. The 3 to send it to OT was a gift to say the least, needed that for the side and the over. Foul trouble for UTEP really kept Fazekas in the zone. That being said, If UTEP would have lost the game, the return trip to El Paso might have been my WAC game of the year.
