Pick

I’m sticking with Nevada here. San Diego State’s owned this matchup in the last few years, but this is the best Nevada team that Steve Alford’s put out, and at home, Nevada’s been tough to hang with, especially in conference play as some of the better Mountain West teams have fallen in Nevada already this season. San Diego State’s solid, but I just think this spot sets up well for Nevada to get the win. Give me the Wolf Pack here.
