Was this going to be the kind of game that UNLV and SDSU fans expected from their teams? Whenever UNLV and SDSU come together, it's another moment of renewed rivalry. On Saturday night, it didn't seem like too much of a rivalry between the conference foes as UNLV came out flat in the second half against an ever aggressive, defensive minded Aztecs squad. UNLV fell to the Aztecs 67-52.
The Aztecs are the top defensive team in the conference, and to top them, the Rebels would need to come out aggressively to keep pace with SDSU's grind effort.
