The Nevada football team played its annual Silver-and-Blue spring game Saturday, giving the public its first look at the new Wolf Pack squad led by first-year head coach Ken Wilson.
The Silver team came out on top 55-46, though the scoring system was different than it was in past seasons under Jay Norvell, when one team (usually composed of the 2nd, 3rd-stringers) began with a multi-touchdown lead.
The offense was tallied the the same — six for touchdown, three for field goals, two-point conversions worth two and one for point-after makes. The defense, however, also had opportunities to score points: Seven points for touchdowns, three for three-and-outs, three for takeaways, two points for a defensive stop, two for safeties and one for every tackle-for-loss.
