This was the only good thing about last night's game at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

UNLV, WTF?

Losing at Louisville is one thing (although that loss looks even more questionable now that freakin' Drexel found a way to win at the KFC Yum! Center), but losing at home to a UC Santa Barbara team boasting previous losses at North Dakota State, Oregon and Portland? Not cool!

So now we get to play an unranked team Tuesday that's on a two-game losing streak. Great. At least Presbyterian won.
