In the end, Eric Musselman’s biggest worry Saturday night turned out to be how to substitute in the final minutes while also honoring his seniors.
Nevada, a second-half team all season, turned it on once again in the final 20 minutes Saturday at Lawlor Events Center, blitzing San Diego State, 39-16, after intermission to score a no-doubt 81-53 win and a share of the Mountain West title.
The Wolf Pack finished the regular season at 28-3 overall and 15-3 in Mountain West games, tied with Utah State at the top of the MW standings.
