For Nevada basketball coach Eric Musselman, every Wolf Pack basketball game is like the Super Bowl.
So playing UNLV is no different for him.
But he understands the importance of the rivalry game for Nevada fans and for the surrounding Northern Nevada community.
Nevada (19-1 overall, 6-1 Mountain West) plays at UNLV (11-7, 5-1) on Tuesday night. Tip-off is set for 8 p.m. UNLV played San Diego State on Saturday night.
The Wolf Pack is coming off a 100-60 win over Colorado State and had a bye Saturday.
