Going viral is what any program like the UNLV football team will gladly take, especially after posting one winning campaign in the last 16 seasons. But the Rebels’ latest promotional spot is earning them attention here in the offseason.
The team’s second entry in its “This Is Las Vegas” series has been noticed by Sports Illustrated and was spotlighted on ESPN’s SportsCenter on Tuesday, with proud former UNLV quarterback Kenny Mayne anchoring the show. The promo, of course, was inspired by the “This Is SportsCenter” ads that have aired for the last 20 years.
