ÐÔÊӽ紫ý

ÐÔÊӽ紫ý will host Boise State in the Mountain West Conference championship game at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Saturday after a computer ranking was used to break a three-way tie for first place.

ÐÔÊӽ紫ý (9-3) has been a revelation in coach Barry Odom's first season. Prior to this season, the Rebels had finished with a winning record in Mountain West play just twice since joining from the WAC in 1999. Their nine wins are the most they have had since going 11-2 in 1984 as a member of the Pacific Coast Athletic Association.

The Mountain West made it official on Sunday morning, announcing ÐÔÊӽ紫ý as the host of the 2023 conference championship game after roughly 12 hours of computation. Now ÐÔÊӽ紫ý will have an opportunity to cap its improbable turnaround season with a Mountain West championship.

ÐÔÊӽ紫ý will host Boise State in the 2023 Mountain West Football Championship at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Saturday, Dec. 2. Boise State, San José State, and ÐÔÊӽ紫ý all finished the regular season with identical 6-2 MW records. Since all three teams did not face each other head-to-head as part of the mini round-robin tiebreak, and no team was ranked in the latest College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings, the three-way tie was broken by computer rankings from Anderson & Hester, Colley Matrix, Massey and Wolfe.

Over 365 volunteers from various organizations will participate this year. Following the shopping experience, the kids will be treated to a sports day with student athletes from the ÐÔÊӽ紫ý (ÐÔÊӽ紫ý) and hear an inspiring speech from Dr. Keith Whitfield, president of ÐÔÊӽ紫ý.

Five local sporting events that changed Las Vegas’ civic self-image

The impact of Super Bowl LVIII will be felt far beyond Allegiant Stadium.

More than 30 years ago, Las Vegas had the Running Rebels, the champions of the NCAA with stars who went onto professional careers and a coach, Jerry Tarkanian, whose name still evokes respect among those who were here.

ÐÔÊӽ紫ý athletics announced its first comprehensive capital campaign Wednesday, with the goal of raising $150 million for new facilities, upgrades and enhancing student-athlete wellness.

The Las Vegas Raiders are giving back to ÐÔÊӽ紫ý athletics. The NFL team announced it will donate $1 million to the university athletics program.

Tarkanian's fast and quick coaching style earned the program a new name, "The Runnin' Rebels." His impact went beyond the basketball court.
