Aggressive defense and clutch scoring lead to big win for the Runnin’ Rebels on the road against Utah State.
What a difference a week makes. Last Tuesday, the Rebels were 0-3 in the Mountain West Conference, had just fired their coach and were taking the court against a New Mexico team that was undefeated at 3-0 in conference play.
They were a team in disarray, with a season about to be lost.
Fast forward 7 days, and the Rebels are 3-3 in conference play after logging three convincing wins, with the most impressive being Tuesday night after an 80-68 win against the Utah State Aggies at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum in Logan, Utah.
