Last Saturday, Nevada football reached the lowest point in Brian Polian’s head coaching tenure when it lost to the 0-6 Wyoming Cowboys. In the second quarter of this Saturday’s game against Hawaii, the Wolf Pack trailed the Rainbow Warriors 17-0 and was headed for another head-scratching loss. You could almost feel the disapproval coming from the boosters in the suites on the third floor of the stadium.

Then Nevada rallied – thanks to a sideline speech from Don Jackson and Hasaan Henderson – and managed to score 30 of the game’s next 33 points.
