Gamble on Excitement: UNLV vs. Nevada Basketball Showdown
Sin City plays host to a fiery Mountain West dustup as the Nevada Wolfpack and UNLV Rebels square off in a late-night rivalry match. With the spread hovering at 1.5 in favor of the Wolfpack, the 133.5-point total on betting platforms is the real draw.
Wolfpack vs. Rebels
- Spread: Nevada -1.5
- Total: 133.5
It Ain't Much But It's Honest Cash
The 133.5-point total seems low for this heated rivalry. From the last four battles, the point total has exceeded this mark.
Both teams are known for their points-friendly offense; UNLV averages 143.1 points per game, while Nevada holds a slightly lower average of 135.9. Defensively, neither team is a fortress, allowing an average of 135.9 and 137.5 points per game, respectively. With offensive and defensive averages in clearly over the 133.5 mark, bettors might see value in the over.
Nevada has had its fair share of over success, exceeding the total in nine of the last twelve games. Three of the team's last four games with a total of 133.5 or lower have also gone over. UNLV, coming off an over hit against a 137.5-point total, has been going over in its last five games with a total at or below 133.5.
