Rebels rally for 6th straight win
Game Report Posted: October 08, 2013 05:23
Another week, another come-from-behind victory for the Rebels. This time it was in the hands of backup QB Troy Hawthorne (RS JR), as RS SR starting QB Nick Sherry was injured in the fourth quarter. While he threw a red zone interception on 4th and short early in the 4th quarter, Hawthorne rebounded to string together a series of runs (including a 23 yarder on 4th and 10 where he stepped just over the outstretched arms of the defender).

Kenny Keys intercepted a Chris Kelly pass in the end zone with 1:08 remaining in the 4th quarter to cement a comeback win. UNLV dominated the time of possession battle, holding the ball for just over 26 of the game's 36 minutes, but threw two interceptions and lost a fumble in Clemson's territory to end promising drives. Clemson's red zone failures (4 times in the red zone, 0 TD, 3 FG) were the difference in the game, however.

UNLV led off with a 10-0 lead and never looked back, scoring in every quarter for a three TD victory. Much of the excitement for this season has revolved around first year head coach Sean Hogan and his new offensive system, but it was the defense who won the game today, holding Colorado to 133 total yards and forcing two turnovers. QB Nick Sherry had two short rushing touchdowns for UNLV in the second quarter and RB Joseph Ajeigbe tacked on one himself in the third.

After defeating quality opponents in their first two road games of the season, UNLV barely defeated Wyoming in their third (and first road conference game). While a TD with 12 seconds left brought Wyoming to within 3, it was UNLV who roared back with a late comeback, needing a 28-0 run from 3:49 left in the 3rd until 45 seconds remaining in the 4th just to take the lead in the first place. Nick Sherry threw five interceptions but ran for two TD's and threw for another to get the win.
Rebs rally again to knock off Idaho

It once again wasn't pretty, but UNLV pulled another one out late, outscoring Idaho 17-8 in the fourth quarter to win, 31-25. Two big plays from Sean Alfred (57 yard TD run) and Dennis Boyd (38 yard TD catch) helped the Rebs, as they struggled to put long drives together against a surprisingly staunch Idaho defense.
