Nevada scores 28 unanswered, blows past Idaho State 49-10

Nearly four years ago to the date, the Idaho State Bengals marched into Mackay Stadium in Reno, Nev., as 33.5-point underdogs against the Nevada Wolf Pack. It didn’t matter; Idaho State upset the Pack on the road, 30-28 — possessing a 23-point lead at one point.

The result flipped this time around.

The Wolf Pack downed Idaho State 49-10 — rattling off the game’s final 28 unanswered points (all coming in the second half).

Saturday’s win improves Nevada to 2-0 on the year and 3-1 against FCS programs in five seasons under head coach Jay Norvell.
