Averaging just three wins over the last five seasons, UNLV turned to a high school coach to rebuild its program. Tony Sanchez was a local star, posting an 85-5 record at Las Vegas Bishop Gordon and winning six straight state championships.
Sanchez’ biggest concern will be his defense which allowed 500 points in 2014.
To make matters worse, UNLV faces UCLA the week before it travels to Ann Arbor.
Should be a day for the Wolverines to fatten the stats.
Prediction: Michigan 41, UNLV 7.
Next: Brigham Young
