RENO, Nev. (Interstat) — A surging Utah State squad aims to continue its dominant run through the Mountain West when the Aggies visit the Nevada Wolf Pack at Lawlor Events Center on Saturday. Utah State (23-3, 13-1 MW) has won nine consecutive games, including a 75-56 dismantling of Boise State on Wednesday. The Aggies’ last loss was on Jan. 20. Their high-powered offense, averaging 84.2 points per game during the streak, is fueled by guard Mason Falslev. The sophomore is averaging 17.1 points over his last seven contests, including a 27-point, 5-assist performance in a road win at Wyoming on Feb. 7. Nevada (17-9, 8-6) looks to stabilize after dropping two straight, including an 87-71 road loss at San Jose State. The Wolf Pack’s fortunes often hinge on the scoring of guard Corey Camper. The junior has been prolific, topping 30 points twice in recent weeks, including a 35-point outing in an overtime loss at Boise State on Feb. 3. He scored 18 in the loss to San Jose State. In the teams’ first meeting this season on Jan. 14 in Logan, Utah State secured a 71-62 victory. The Aggies have not lost in Reno since 2022. The matchup presents a stark contrast in momentum. Utah State, firmly in the hunt for a top NCAA tournament seed, boasts the conference’s most efficient offense. Nevada, seeking a resume-building win to bolster its postseason hopes, has shown a capacity for high scores but has struggled with consistency, particularly on defense. A key battle will be on the perimeter between Falslev and Camper. If Camper can ignite the home crowd and the Wolf Pack defense can disrupt Utah State’s rhythm, an upset is possible. However, the Aggies’ depth and sustained excellence make them a formidable road favorite. Following this game, Utah State visits San Diego State on Feb. 25. Nevada hosts New Mexico on Feb. 24.
