As it stands today, Vegas has the Valley listed as underdogs in 4 of the games, with Boise and Evansville opening as a pick'em.

Does anyone know how long the challenge is slated for? Is next year still a go?

I think UNLV demanded that WSU play @UNLV, so I'm sure the series will continue and that will happen next year.

I didn't realize the SIU @ UNLV game wasn't until December 19th, that will be the 10th game in the series.

But yes, the series does continue for the next 2 years I believe.

The Aces are now a 1 point favorite. That's somewhat surprising since the five rating services that I saw this morning had Boise St. with the better rating.

I don't see a game on their that isn't winnable, except maybe Drake, and they might even have a chance as Fresno State has played below expectations so far this season and this will be on a neutral court.

I don't really see this as a winnable game for Bradley against Nevada. A win would signal that they have the talent to compete with the top-half of the Valley. I still think this team is a year or two away from that level.

They are facing a Kenpom #81 team. The best competition they've faced so far this year is #194 George Mason with their best win being against #246 Wofford.

65-55 Aces up with about 3:30 left. Would be a nice win!

UNI tied at 28 at halftime in Laramie. Playing down two starters with Lohaus (ankle) and Koch (ill) both doubtful.
