The Nevada Wolf Pack will welcome the UNLV Rebels to Reno on Saturday in a battle for the Fremont Cannon.

The Wolf Pack (2-2) are looking to build off a narrow, 24-21 win over Buffalo last week, thanks to solid play from sophomore running back James Buter and freshman safety Dameon Baber. Butler tore up the Bulls defense for a career high 177 yards and a score. Baber recorded two interceptions in his first collegiate game; his second sealed the game for Nevada, putting a stop to the potential game-winning drive for the Bulls.

UNLV notched its first win of the 2015 season last week in convincing fashion. The Rebels dropped 80 points on Idaho State, breaking multiple school and conference records in the process. Running backs Xzavier Campbell and Lexington Thomas each topped 100-yards and combined for three of UNLV’s six rushing touchdowns in the colossal victory.

This game features two titles for the victor, ownership of the Fremont Cannon and winner of the Governor’s Series. The Fremont Cannon is college football’s heaviest trophy and is painted red or blue depending on the victor. The game marks the fourth installment of the Governor’s Series , which is a head-to-head competition that awards points towards the winner of each sporting event between the teams and the school with the top Academic Progress Rate. The winner of Saturday’s matchup gains a 3-0 lead in the series.

Saturday’s meeting marks the 41st in the rivalry. Nevada holds a 24-16 lead all-time with 13-7 record at home. The Wolf Pack has commanded all of the recent success, winning nine of the last 10 matchups.

Prediction

New head coach Tony Sanchez has UNLV playing with more confidence and enthusiasm in 2015. But Nevada has been in the Rebels’ heads over the past 10 years. And as long as the Pack can run the ball and consistently win at the line of scrimmage, the Fremont Cannon will remain in Reno.
