There's one last chance to salvage what has been a disappointing season for the Nevada football team. This one involves a fierce in-state rivalry as Nevada plays UNLV at 5 p.m. Saturday (TV- CBS Sports Network) at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

A victory in Saturday's game puts No. 21 UNLV (No. 22 in the College Football Playoff rankings) in the Mountain West title game a week later at Boise State, which is 11th in the AP and CFP rankings. Which means the Rebels (9-2, 5-1 MW) have a path to the first 12-team playoff field.

Nevada coach Jeff Choate called it “a meaningful game for the state of Nevada” because there is so much more on the line than state bragging rights and which team gets to paint the Fremont Cannon.
