UNLV coach Marvin Menzies is doing his best to rebuild the basketball program, but the Rebels can't seem to escape mediocrity and this year is no different as they are 4-4 and have lost their last three games. The Rebels are shooting only 43.7 percent overall and what's more alarming is their .273 percentage from 3-point range. BYU is averaging 84.7 points, which is about 14 more than UNLV and the Cougars have a .473 field goal percentage while also playing great defensively allowing opponents just a .401 shooting percentage. The Cougars have won three in a row following an 85-66 victory over Portland State on Wednesday with TJ Haws pouring in 30 points. This game is at T-Mobile Arena and not on UNLV's home floor and the Cougars are 6-1 ATS their last seven games against the Mountain West. UNLV is 2-5-1 ATS its last eight against teams with winning records. Play BYU.
