unlv football

The UNLV Rebels football program is a college football team that represents the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (commonly known as "UNLV"). The team is currently a member of the Mountain West Conference, which is a Division I Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) of the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA). The program which began in 1968, is coached by former Eddie Robinson Award finalist Bobby Hauck. The team's home games are played at Sam Boyd Stadium in Whitney, Nevada. The Rebels are not very popular with Las Vegas locals, and have only sold out games on four occasions in their history, all four being against Wisconsin, beating them once out of the four meetings in 1987.
