The Wolf Pack basketball team entered this season with a goal of never losing back-to-back games.
That team made it nearly halfway through the year before that goal was dashed, losses at Wichita State and New Mexico in its last two outings ending that hope. Those back-to-back losses were the deepest Nevada has gone into a season without consecutive defeats since 2005-06, a decade of campaigns, but coming off those back-to-back losses, the Wolf Pack is now faced with its most adversity of the season.
And given how last year went, when the team won just nine games, this group of players will have to prove they can fight off adversity when it hosts Wyoming at 3 p.
