Tony Sanchez talked about how he wasn't especially proud of hitting 80 points, but he had his first victory in hand as UNLV's football coach, so he was going to enjoy it.
"It's going to be a long night in our house," Sanchez said to laughter following Saturday's 80-8 victory over Idaho State at Sam Boyd Stadium.
Eighty is an eye-popping number, something that UNLV had never reached until this game and something no Mountain West team had done, either.
