The UNLV Runnin' Rebels are one of the best teams in the nation entering this week<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

UNLV is off to its best start since the 1991-92 season and is coming off an electrifying 80-63 win over the New Mexico Lobos as 6.5-point home favorites.\u00a0 \u201cYou can never score too many points,\u201d commented Runnin\u2019 Rebels senior guard Anthony Marshall.\u00a0 All three of the program\u2019s losses have come away from the Thomas and Mack Center, including a 69-67 setback against the San Diego State Aztecs in its Mountain West Conference road opener.\u00a0 UNLV is 1-4 ATS on the road this year.<\/p>\n

The Runnin\u2019 Rebels have won nine of their last 10 games and this week\u2019s top-25 ranking marks their seventh week as a ranked team during the 2011-12 campaign.\u00a0 Three UNLV players are averaging double figures in scoring this year and are led by Chace Stanback pouring in 14.7 points per game.\u00a0 He leads the team in shooting 50.5 percent from the field and 47.7 percent from beyond the arc.\u00a0 Wednesday\u2019s game will mark the fourth all-time meeting with Boise State, with the program holding a 2-1 advantage in the series.<\/p>\n

Boise State has lost four straight games and five of its last six, but it\u2019s important to note that the team is 9-1 at home this season inside Taco Bell Arena.\u00a0 The Broncos have one player averaging double figures in scoring, with freshman Anthony Drmic scoring 13.1 points per game.\u00a0 Offensively, the team has managed to score 83.1 points per game in its 10 home games, but has managed to averaging just 56.3 points during its current four-game losing streak.\u00a0 Boise State is 1-5 ATS as an underdog this year, while the \u201cunder\u201d is 2-4 in those contests.<\/p>\n

The Broncos have already used nine different starting lineups this year, which is more than the coaching staff used during the 2010-11 season (eight).\u00a0 Drmic should be very happy to return to his home floor, shooting 43.9 percent from beyond the arc in front of the home fans this season.\u00a0 He entered this week ranking fourth nationally among freshman in three-point field goal percentage, but has hit just 5-of-26 (.192) shots from that distance during the team\u2019s recent losing streak.<\/p>\n

Bettors will likely back the Runnin\u2019 Rebels due to their 13-5 ATS mark as a road favorite, while the Broncos are 7-19 ATS versus winning teams.<\/p>\n
