The recent suspension of multi-year starter G Tre Coleman (a situation still unresolved as of Monday) didn't hurt the Wolf Pack much at Air Force last week, thanks in part to Nick Davidson stepping up with 26 points. However, it does rob Steve Alford of a top defender and further exposed an already-thin bench. Keep in mind that it took Nevada into OT to subdue Fresno in the first meeting at Save-Mart Center back on January 11. At 5-19, the season can't end soon enough for the Bulldogs, but they usually do playa full 40 minutes for Vance Walberg, such as Friday's night's fightback to claw inside of a double-digit spread vs. Utah State. Play Fresno State.

Nevada has had a heck of a time covering in conference and this is obviously a lot of points. The Pack are 3-9 ATS in conference and 1-5 ATS at home in the Mountain West. They were favored by 12.5 in the first meeting and won by 11. When the Bulldogs catch 10 or more points they are 9-5 ATS. They tend to be slow starters but I think they can once again muck a game up in the second half and keep this around 10-12.
