A difficult start to Mountain West play turned downright ugly on Wednesday night as UNLV fell to 0-2 with a road loss at Colorado State.
After the Rebels squandered a late 10-point lead, Patrick McCaw drove the length of the floor to hit a layup to tie the game with six seconds remaining.
But Ben Carter fouled John Gillon on the other end and the guard made the second of two free throws to give the Rams the win.
UNLV played extremely well for a big portion of the second half. Overall, it was another tough night.
