In front of another vibrant crowd at Lawlor, Nevada welcomed another opponent in Liberty in the second round of the NIT. It was a close one that included the Pack being down within the final five minutes of the game, but Nevada found its way to lock it back down and win 73-63.
“I’ve been in this before as a player and a coach several times, and it’s all about the crowd,” Nevada head coach Steve Alford said.
