The Wolf Pack have looked a bit sluggish of late, and they struggled Saturday with Air Force until well into the second half. Coach Eric Musselman wasn't pleased with the performance, so his club will be motivated to dominate from the outset Wednesday against Colorado State. Musselman is seeking his 100th win in his short tenure at Nevada. Look for his players to give it to him with a strong showing.

This is a simple contrarian play. Nevada is one of the top teams in the country at 18-1, but at times the Wolf Pack has looked a bit bored in conference play. They're only 3-3 ATS against MWC teams and have failed to cover in two straight. Against a Colorado State team being given no chance in this one, don't be surprised if Nevada keeps it in neutral.
