After a back-and-forth first half, UNLV erupted out of the break and went on to a third straight victory to open the Todd Simon era.
The Rebels used a 21-2 run to open the second half and went on to an 80-68 road win to even their record in conference play at 3-3.
The win was UNLV's first on the road in Mountain West play after a disastrous road trip earlier this month that saw the team blow consecutive second-half leads and ultimately coast Dave Rice his job.
Several performances stood out on Tuesday night in Logan, Utah.
