UNLV Rebels Preview 2022: Season Prediction, Breakdown, Key Games, Players


Recommended Posts

Can UNLV ever turn this thing around?

It might be the most overdue program in college football. Seriously, every team in the Mountain West has been able to have some fun, but not UNLV.

It’s been eight years since the program has enjoyed a winning season, and the 2013 team that got there ended with a bowl loss.

The 2000 Rebels went 8-5 and beat Arkansas in the Las Vegas Bowl. In the 21 seasons since, there’s been just that one lonely winning campaign, and no bowl bids.

Since 2019, eight current Mountain West programs have at least played in the conference championship, and six have won one. Nevada won a WAC title in 2010, New Mexico has at least tied for a division title and has been to seven bowl games over the last 22 seasons, and …

UNLV’s lone conference title was the 1994 Big West.

UNLV Key Game To The 2022 Season

North Texas, Sept. 17
Just for the confidence at a program that hasn’t had a lot of fun in a long, long time, starting a season 2-1 would do wonders.

Last year’s team won two games, the 2020 version didn’t win any, and there’s been just one 2-1 start since 2009. Assuming a win over Idaho State to kick things off, and a loss at Cal to follow that up, getting by a dangerous and experienced North Texas team at home would be a terrific step forward.

Considering the rough slate the rest of the way – New Mexico is the only time the Rebels might be favored.
