Who’s Playing
UNLV @ SMU
Current Records: UNLV 4-3; SMU 5-3
What to Know
The SMU Mustangs will take on the UNLV Rebels at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday at Moody Coliseum. The Mustangs are out to keep their five-game home win streak alive.
SMU beat the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks 74-67 on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the oddsmakers predicted a rough contest for UNLV on Saturday, and boy were they were right. They suffered a grim 73-51 defeat to the UCLA Bruins. One thing holding UNLV back was the mediocre play of guard Jordan McCabe, who did not have his best game: he finished with only two points on 1-for-10 shooting in his 37 minutes on the court.
SMU is the favorite in this one, with an expected 8-point margin of victory. Now might not be the best time to take SMU against the spread since they’ve let down bettors for the past five consecutive games.
SMU’s win lifted them to 5-3 while UNLV’s defeat dropped them down to 4-3. We’ll see if the Mustangs can repeat their recent success or if the Rebels bounce back and reverse their fortune.
