If you were a betting person, you probably had the Wolf Pack football team sitting at 1-1 through two games.
A win at Cal Poly and a loss at Notre Dame to open the season seemed all but certain, and while the win over the FCS Mustangs was closer than expected – 30-27 in overtime – Nevada does stand at 1-1.
The intrigue really starts this week when Nevada hosts Buffalo at 6 p.m. Saturday at Mackay Stadium. After that comes a game at the Big Ten's Purdue, followed by four Mountain West contests before a bye week.
