Mountain West revises basketball schedule after COVID cancellations
MW revises schedule, adds TV commitments
The Mountain West announced Tuesday a revamped conference basketball schedule for all league teams in light of games that have been postponed because of COVID-19.
Also, TV assignments were made for conference games with CBS, CBS Sports Network providing the broadcasts. The league already had gone to a travel-saving schedule where teams play two consecutive games against another conference opponent.
For UNLV, the changes mean new dates for its series against Air Force, Fresno State, New Mexico and San Diego State. No new dates have been selected for the Wyoming series, which was postpoined because of COVID-19 issues at UNLV.
The broadcast announcement puts UNLV on national TV for all but one of its Mountain West games, including the Jan. 2 game against San Diego State that will be televised on KLAS-8.
