Nevada is a trendy upset pick in many pools but it is not going to happen. The Wolfpack are nowhere near the team that made that great run with last yr, as Kirk Snyder is playing for the Jazz. Nevada's biggest weakness is Texas' biggest strength - shooting the 3 pointer. Other than Fazekas, the Wolfpack are a poor perimter shooting team. Any team that can go into OSU and break a 29 game home-winning streak in that arena should be favored by at least a handful over any team from the WAC. The Big-12 will prove to have been a very tough league this yr after the Madness shakes out, and the Longhorns beat some impressive teams. Two stars on Texas.
