LAS VEGAS (AP) Patrick McCaw scored 25 points, including a 3-pointer at the buzzer to force overtime, and UNLV beat Nevada 102-91 on Saturday night.

Jerome Seagears made five 3-pointers and finished with 21 points for UNLV (16-12, 7-8 Mountain West), which bounced back from a 79-74 loss at Air Force on Feb. 16 that broke a two-game winning streak.
