Nevada at San Diego State: Pack faces 'great challenge' in battle for West Division lead

One thing is for certain — the winner will be in first place.

One thing is less certain, though appears likely — the game should be a close one.

The Nevada football team travels to face San Diego State on Saturday night, with both teams sitting at 4-1 in the Mountain West’s West Division standings. The winner will take over sole possession of first place with just two games to play, along with holding a very valuable tie-breaker.

The Aztecs (8-1 overall) are No. 22 in the College Football Playoff rankings, although unranked in both major national polls.
