Blown save with two outs in the ninth... Pack wins 53-52

For the better part of half a decade now, Utah State was the team dominating the WAC and always finding a way to pull out those close games in conference play.

This year, Nevada is that team. They went through their growing pains last year and are reaping the benefits of that experience this year. They're just a really good team.

Still, USU had them beat tonight. Up two, with the ball and 49 seconds to go, you should close out that game. Make even 50 percent of your free throws, and the game at least goes to overtime. Turn the ball over one less time, and the Aggies might have had a victory on their hands.

The 14 assists on the road against a good team is a nice start, and if that team play continues, good things will happen. Also good to see USU churn out a very good rebounding performance against a team that crushed them on the boards a few weeks ago. 

I'd be lying if I said I wanted to talk about this game any more, so I'm not going to.
