Women's College Basketball Game Preview: UNLV Hosts Boise State

The UNLV Lady Rebels are coming off their most important game of the season to this point. They went on the road to Colorado State this weekend and knocked off the second-place Rams essentially locking up a Mountain West Conference regular season championship. They now head back home to turn their attention toward the Boise State Broncos who are in eighth place in the Mountain West with a conference record of 6-9.

The Lady Rebels have dominated the conference with a first-place record of 14-1. Despite running away with the Mountain West, UNLV will have to do their best to stay focused on the task at hand and not look ahead past them to tournament play. Nevertheless, it would be a shock and a massive upset if the Lady Rebels were to lose this game.

The last two home games of the season!🏡
