Nevada @ Utah State

What to Know

The Nevada Wolf Pack haven’t won a contest against the Utah State Aggies since Jan. 2 of 2019, but they’ll be looking to end the drought Friday. Nevada and Utah State will face off in a Mountain West battle at 9 p.m. ET at Dee Glen Smith Spectrum.

The Wolf Pack came up short against the Colorado State Rams on Tuesday, falling 82-72. Guard Desmond Cambridge Jr. did his best for Nevada, finishing with 36 points (a whopping 50% of their total).

Meanwhile, Utah State was close but no cigar on Tuesday as they fell 78-76 to the Wyoming Cowboys. The defeat was just more heartbreak for Utah State, who fell 71-69 when the teams previously met last month. Forward Brandon Horvath (20 points) was the top scorer for the Aggies.

The Wolf Pack have to know they’ll be fighting an uphill battle given the 11.50 point spread they are up against. Those betting on them against the spread shouldn’t have high expectations for them since the squad is 2-5 ATS when expected to lose.

Both of these teams will be looking to put their recent losses behind them and walk away with a win. We’ll see which team satisfies their hunger and which team leaves with an empty stomach.
