I hear that the Wolfpack don't have a very good defense this year. Do you think BYU wins by 4 touchdowns, or 5?

Good question. Better question. Is this the live game thread or the prediction thread? Labelling is important.



What is the TV coverage?

November 30th, 1:00pm MST on CBS-Sports network.



Nevada is #116 in Sagarin's Predictor ranking.



UNR's best win this year is 31-9 over Norm Chow's Hawaii. They also beat Air Force, lost @ SDSU in overtime, and lost to UNLV by 5 points. They've been roughed up a bit by UCLA, Florida State, Boise State, and Fresno State.



Nevada is playing in Provo in both 2014 and 2019. Last time they did, they cost Romney Fuga the rest of his season on a dirty hit. http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/09/27/byu-loses-top-defensive-player-to-season-ending-injury/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Excellent. Any chance you would do this for all FB and BB games.



Nice value add for CC.

I used to do a lot more around here. Nowadays I'm a bit too busy. It is nice to see others pick up the slack though, as they always do. I just come by to insult Schmoe!

Bump.



Nevada seems to be an average MWC team that can punish weaker opponents but gets punished by really good teams.



Time to begin the discussion.

BYU thumps the Wolfpack. And Anae gets falsely assured that "See, my plays do work. Why should I change or game plan for the other team? We do what we do and let the chips fall where they may." And then, BYU will play an equally talented Wash team and get beat bc Anae is stale and doesn't game plan for the opponents strengths and weaknesses.

Sorry to be a downer on this. I'm just not a big believer in Anae right now. He's a good guy and maybe with 2J the Oline will keep improving. But the play calling will still be the play calling.

Pray that we do not get UW. As near as I can tell, not having researched in detail, right now, UW is a better team than BYU. They will give the BYU Defense major problems. We do not match up well at all. If everybody we have left right now stays healthy, and Hadley and others recover, maybe maybe maybe we could hang close.



OSU took U to OT and won in SLC. UW just dismantled OSU. We have not dismantled anyone but Idaho State in the past month. We peaked. Lack of depth is showing.



Hope for OSU. Even AZ will give our defense problems - ASU, UCLA, UW - do not like the match-up right now. Maybe I will feel better too after a confidence builder and 3 weeks for the team to get healthy by skipping practices........WAIT.



8-4 is 85% certain. The Bowl opponent, will likely be favored.

38-16 thumping of San Jose State in their last outing. Makes me wonder if they got someone key back from injury or something because they were on a bit of a slide prior to that.



Nevada has a good offense. Their losses usually seem more due to giving up a lot of points. But they held SJSU to 16.

221 Direct TV - Choice Extra Package

158 Dish Network - Classic Silver 200 Package

Dish and Direct TV both have it if you have the right package to include it. Cable providers vary.



One source said 152 for DISH. Another said 158. My TV in So Cal has it in 158 - not 152.

After Nevada thumped SJSU, SJSU was so miffed, they knocked Fresno State right out of BCS Bowl contention this holiday weekend In a high-scoring slugfest.
