Wolf Pack Set to Challenge Aztecs at Viejas Arena Showdown

As the Nevada Wolf Pack prepare to face the San Diego State Aztecs at Viejas Arena, fans can anticipate a game where recent trends could play a significant role. The Wolf Pack's performance in their last few outings has shown both resilience and areas for improvement.

In their most recent game against Boise State, the Wolf Pack fell short with 56 points to Boise State's 64. Despite a strong defensive effort that included 10 steals and five blocks, they struggled offensively, shooting only 36 percent from the field and 25 percent from beyond the arc. Their rebounding was also an area of concern as they were outrebounded by a margin of nearly two-to-one.

However, looking back at their previous home game against Air Force provides a more positive perspective. The Wolf Pack emerged victorious with 67 points over Air Force's 54. Their shooting improved significantly to 46 percent from both the field and three-point range. They also showcased better ball distribution with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.5.

The away victory against Fresno State further demonstrated Nevada's capabilities when they are firing on all cylinders. A solid offensive display saw them put up 72 points while maintaining good ball control with only three turnovers throughout the game – an impressive assist-to-turnover ratio of nearly four.

As they head into enemy territory at Viejas Arena, maintaining strong defense while improving on offense will be key for Nevada if they want to secure another win on their record.

Fans can catch this exciting matchup scheduled for January 18th at Viejas Arena in San Diego, California. The game will be broadcasted nationally on CBS Sports Network (channel 221) starting at Pacific Time (adjust for local time zones).
