Coach Rocky Long opened this week’s SDSU Football Press Conference with the following sentiments: "We start conference play this week against a team that is drastically improved in UNLV. Even though they’re in the same formations, I think they’ve decided on a philosophy on offense. They’re playing pretty good defense and on offense they’re running the ball really well. I think they’ve settled on a plan and are getting better as they go. They had a big win last week against Fresno State. We expect a very competitive football game."
In response to a reporter’s inqury about the play of UNLV quarterback Dalton Sneed:
"Dalton Sneed is a great athlete that throws well on the run and can make things happen himself.
