Battle Brush: UNLV, Fremont Cannon, bowl games

Matt: Beating UNLV is more important than a bowl gameIt’s a tough call, but taking home the Fremont Cannon — the largest and most expensive award in college football — is more rewarding than winning a bowl game. Nevada’s won 11 out of the last 14 matchups between the two teams — with all three losses coming in the last six years. What took place on Saturday night was absolutely inexcusable. Blowing a 20-point first quarter lead to UNLV? The largest choke in the history of the rivalry. Unacceptable. Regardless of what happened over the course of the season, the biggest game of the season — and every season — has been UNLV.
