UNLV Rebels Betting Preview

UNLV wasn’t able to stay above the.500 mark over their first 15 games this year. The Rebels were sitting at just 7-8 on January 9, but then beat Boise State, San Jose State and Utah State in the next three. After losses to San Diego State, New Mexico, Nevada and Fresno State came a win over Grand Canyon last weekend. Over the first 23 games that would give the Rebels an 11-12 record.

On Wednesday versus San Jose State, the Rebels were up by four points 45-41 going into the break. UNLV kept it going in the second half on a 37-34 run the rest of the way and took the eventual victory at home 82-75 in the end. Dra Gibbs-Lawhorn put up 24 points with five assists and four rebounds while Kimani Hamilton doubled up on 23 points and 10 boards.

Boise State Broncos Betting Preview

Over on the Broncos’ side, they weren’t looking too bad as the 2025 calendar year closed. Boise State was 9-4 in their first 13 games, but then hit a four-game losing streak from there. The Broncos have since recovered on a 6-1 run with wins over Colorado State, Wyoming, Air Force, San Jose State, Nevada and New Mexico. That makes for a 15-9 record in 24 games this year.

Matched up against New Mexico in their latest outing, the Broncos were up by just one point 43-42 as the first half came to a close. Boise State hit a 48-48 run the rest of the way and ended up eking out the victory on the road 91-90 in the end. Tops in scoring was Dylan Andrews with his 33 points, four assists and one rebound in 35 minutes of work on the floor.

• Boise State has won 43 of its last 48 night games against the Mountain West Conference at ExtraMile Arena.

UNLV vs Boise State Prediction

I’ll stick with Boise State. The Broncos powered out a nice road win over New Mexico in their last outing, despite giving up 51.6 percent from the field and 45.8 percent (11-of-24) from outside. Boise State shot 46.3 percent themselves with a 96.3 percent effort (26-of-27) at the line, but did get blown out in the paint 40-14. The Broncos are 6-1 in their last seven games and they’ve scored a combined 182 points in their last pair (with one OT game in there).

These teams last saw each other back on January 13 in an 89-85 overtime road loss for the Broncos. In that one Boise State shot 49.2 percent from the field but just 21.4 percent (3-of-14) from outside along with a 36-30 rebounding deficit. The 14 turnovers didn’t help matters either. The Broncos are going to need to sharpen up in a lot of areas for the home rematch.
