UNLV just did Boise State a big favor but the No. 23 Broncos are unlikely to take that into consideration on Friday night.The Rebels stunning 69-66 triple-overtime victory over Wyoming last Saturday has revived Boise States Mountain West championship hopes and the Broncos look to strengthen their conference positioning when they host the Rebels (9 p.m. ET, ESPN2).Boise State (9-1, 5-1) lost to Wyoming on Oct. 29 and that result gave the Cowboys the upper hand in terms of winning the Mountain Division of the Mountain West. Wyoming still controls its fate but UNLVs dramatic victory in the third-highest scoring game in FBS history has greatly improved the Broncos chances.Boise State needs to win its final two games and have the Cowboys lose one of their final two contests to have a chance at the conference championship and a possible Cotton Bowl berth.Boise State coach Bryan Harsin doesnt want to get caught up in the what-if scenarios. He wants the focus to be only on Fridays game against UNLV.We cant control that, Harsin told reporters. We know what happened, guys know the scores and all those things. But I said this two weeks ago, we dont feel we control anything until the end of the year. So we have UNLV and thats really it.The talk again is going to be about all this stuff we cant control. If we eat that up, then were going to put ourselves in a really bad position. We have UNLV, thats it.The Rebels (4-6, 3-3) are the type of team that could typically be easy to overlook. Not so after the wild victory over Wyoming.UNLV rolled up 653 yards of total offense -- the second most in school history -- and punished the Cowboys by rushing for 401 yards.To be able to come up and get this one against a really good team is a big deal for us, Rebels coach Tony Sanchez said. Its just another brick in the rebuilding process.Junior quarterback Kurt Palandech made his first start of the season and he excelled by accounting for four touchdowns (three passing, one rushing) while establishing career highs for passing yardage (252) and rushing yardage (157).The news wasnt all good for the Rebels as standout junior receiver Devonte Boyd was lost for the season with a broken left arm. Boyd finishes the season with 45 receptions for 746 yards and four touchdowns and nobody else on the Rebels has more than 13 receptions or reached the modest total of 200 yards.Boise State doesnt lack productive receivers and features a fine duo in senior Thomas Sperbeck and junior Cedrick Wilson, who share the team lead with nine touchdown receptions.Sperbeck has caught 62 passes for 1,023 yards and ranks fourth in school history with 206 career receptions. Wilson has 44 receptions for 827 yards.Sophomore quarterback Brett Rypien has recovered from a shaky midseason stretch and has passed for 2,916 yards and 22 touchdowns.I think were clicking a lot better than we have all year, Rypien said, and you want to be playing your best football coming into the end of the year and I think were doing that.Junior running back Jeremy McNichols has been playing top-level football all season and he leads the nation with 22 touchdowns (18 rushing, four receiving). McNichols ranks fifth nationally with 1,369 rushing yards.Boise States run defense has been suspect on a few occasions this season and was gashed for 234 yards by Hawaii in last Saturdays 52-16 victory. The Broncos allowed 217 one week earlier to San Jose State and were carved up for 382 by New Mexico earlier this season.UNLV, which averages 34.4 points per game, plans to test the Boise State defense with runs by Palandech and a backfield led by true freshman Charles Williams (665 yards, three touchdowns) and sophomore Lexington Thomas (632 yards, eight scores). Thomas missed the Wyoming game with a sprained ankle.Defensively, the Rebels allow 35.4 points per game and are led by senior cornerback Torry McTyer (three interceptions) and senior weak-side linebacker Tau Lotulelei (96 tackles).An upset of the Broncos would give UNLV its fifth victory -- matching the combined total of the previous two seasons.But Boise State needs to only look at what happened to Wyoming last week to know that there is impending trouble ahead if it doesnt take care of business on its own end.We still have a lot of work to do, senior weak-side linebacker Ben Weaver told reporters. ... Theres only two games left in the regular season but anything can still happen and we have to look at it way. (Wyoming) losing, obviously, is in our favor and so now its time for us to put our heads down and continue to work.

Organizers poked a little fun at the now-infamous opening ceremony gaffe that saw only four out of five snowflakes open up into rings, leaving the Olympics logo one ring short. Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall has described the scheduling of Englands fourth autumn international as ludicrous.Eddie Jones men only finished their end-of-year program on December 3, routing Australia to complete a clean sweep of victories that extended their winning run to 14 Tests.However, the players immediately returned to their clubs to prepare for a weekend of Champions Cup action knowing their rivals from other home nations had been rested having completed their international duties seven days earlier.George Kruis, Mako Vunipola, Jamie George and Owen Farrell were back to help Saracens overwhelm Sale 50-3 on Saturday, but McCall insists Englands clubs have been placed at a disadvantage in Europe.For me its ludicrous that the fourth international shouldnt be at the start of the window rather than the end. Its not fair on the Premiership clubs, McCall said. Youre asking players to go again in the Champions Cup the weekend after theyve played Australia.Ireland, Scotland and Wales were able to rest some of their players and youve maybe seen that in some of the other results this weekend - the wins by Muunster and Leinster for example.ddddddddddddWere incredibly fortunate that weve got the players to whom it means a lot to play for Saracens. They were magnificent, all of them.But I still dont think its right that you continuously have to ask them to back up. In the long run, there shouldnt be a fourth international before a European match.Kruis, who missed the wins over South Africa and Argentina due to an ankle problem, insists Saracens England contingent feel an obligation to resume club hostilities as soon as possible.Id say we get a lot of energy from coming back and looking at how hard the boys have worked., Kruis said. Theyre putting big shifts in, when you lose a few players and youve got some injuries as well. When we come back, weve got to repay that favour.We were smart in how we dealt with training this week. We cut the week a bit shorter.But you do reach some emotional highs playing in these big games. The coaching team understand that and gave us an extra day off as well.
