The Utah State Aggies are 11-1 on their home court this season and UNLV is fully aware of that as the team heads to Logan, Utah. The Rebels look to end a three-game losing streak Wednesday, Feb. 5 with tip-off set for 7 pm.
Last time the two teams faced each other, UNLV lost to Utah State 85-78. Utah State’s Sam Merrill and Koby McEwen are some of the Mountain West’s most effective backcourts. The Aggies can’t match UNLV’s Shakur Juiston and Brandon McCoy, who can help UNLV dominate inside. Both teams are on four-game losing streaks. The winner gets the No. 7 seed in next week’s MW tournament. It’s the final regular-season game for both teams. Tip-off is scheduled for 6 p.m. Saturday at Utah State.
