The opening round of the Mountain West tournament gets underway in Las Vegas with Wyoming and Utah State getting things start for a late-morning tip where the winner gets the right to play top seeded San Diego State on Thursday.
UNLV has has an up and down season so far with injuries, suspensions and an interim head coach, but they still have a very good chance to get past Air Force who had the second worst record in the Mountain West.
The third game should go to Colorado State who can put up some serious points but San Jos State has ended the regular season with a nice upset win over Boise State.
