I like UNLV to rebound after losing to Memphis in Week 0. The Rebels lost starting center Austin Boyd to an injury in the second half. Losing a center during the game is tough because he's responsible for the protection when defenses blitz. Credit to Memphis' coaching staff. Once Boyd left, the Tigers blitzed on almost every down, finishing with six sacks. Now UNLV has an entire week to gameplan without Boyd and Hawaii can't hurt the Rebels like Memphis did up front. Look for UNLV to dominate on the ground after Hawaii allowed 173 rushing yards to Stanford. There are also high winds expected Saturday, which could limit Hawaii's Run n' Shoot offense. Give me the Rebels ML -139 for a half unit.
