Men's Basketball: Wolf Pack exact revenge on Lobos in Reno

85-58.

It was the score of the game on Jan. 5 earlier in the season. One that favored the New Mexico Lobos and embarrassed the then-unbeaten No. 6 Nevada Wolf Pack.

But it was also reportedly a score that was shown to the Wolf Pack players during practice leading up to Saturday's rematch in Reno, Nevada — an apparently effective tactic that motivated the players in a rematch they had probably been eyeing for a while.

Nevada (23-1, 10-1 MW) exacted its revenge, beating down the University of New Mexico men's basketball team to the tune of 91-62, proving in many people's minds that the lop-sided loss in the first matchup was an absolute fluke.
