I Don't Think Anyone Saw THAT Coming

In the history of Nevada victories over Fresno State, last year was fairly lopsided; 1992 was fairly lopsided; but the Pack earned the greatest margin of victory in the series since a 53-7 victory in 1948.  The most lopsided game in the history of the series was a 48-0 Nevada victory in 1929, with the 2001 Fresno State 61-14 victory coming just short.  (Most points scored by the victor?  Nevada scored 62 in 1994.)

The stat of the game: the Wolf Pack did it with 45 passing yards.

Kaep was 6/12 for 45 yards, averaging 3.8 yards.

And, no, the loss of Mathews late in the second quarter was not a huge difference maker.  Mathews was averaging 4 yards per carry on eight touches with 32 yards overall; that's on pace for just a twig under 74 yards for the game.

Lippincott had a Senior Day to remember, rushing for 149 yards and THREE touchdowns averaging 14.9 yards per carry.

The analysis will come up sometime tomorrow (preview: Fresno State's 362 passing yards).
