Nevada vs Fresno State Prediction 

Fresno State comes into this matchup on a lengthy losing streak and they are searching for their second conference win of the season. The Bulldogs do have a Mountain West win over Air Force, but they have lost 12 of their last 13 games. Fresno State is shooting just 40.8% from the field this year and their defense has allowed at least 82 points in four straight. Nevada has won two games in a row and they have allowed 65 and 60 points in those two wins. Nevada did beat Fresno State by a score of 77-66 on the road earlier this year and while I do think the Wolf Pack will get another win here, I think Fresno State can cover this number. Take the Bulldogs and the points.
