Utah at Nevada

Steve Alford takes over in Nevada after signing a 10-year deal, coming over from UCLA. He inherits a team that went 29-5 last season and made it to the Dance, but returns no starters. But, they do return the reigning Mountain West sixth man of the year in Nisre Zouzoua. It's very likely that Nevada will put up over 80 points in this game, and that would spell a lot of trouble for Utah, a team that is 17-40 ATS in their last 57 games in which they allowed over 80 points. Home favorites in this range with less than two returning starters are 88-48 ATS. Back Alford and the Wolfack to win and cover.
