(NCAAB) San Diego State vs. UNLV, 03/08/2017 2:00 PM, Score: 62 - 52
Point Spread: -9.00 | -111.00 San Diego State (Away)
Result: Win
San Diego St was they overwhelming favorite to win the MW regular season title and instead they come in with a chip on their shoulder as a #6 seed. The Aztecs have been to the conference finals 3 straight years and have won 9 straight opening round games. UNLV most likely will be without their leading rebounder Tyrell Green who has a knee injury in the regular season finale. The Rebels have lost 10 of their last 11 games with 6 of their last 7 by double digits. SD ST's #49 defense will shut down UNLV which has been held to 43.5% shooting or less in their last 19 games.
