Barry Odom speaks following UNLV loss to Boise State

[@jesterscorner879]

This guy is one heck of a coach. By any measurable standards the best UNLV has seen in decades. Very impressed with how he handled this and his focus on getting back to work.

[@roberthevern6169]

BSU Alum here; props to UNLV for controlling Jeanty almost all game! Great crowd, great game! Likely see you again later this year!

[@claudiamarlow5265]

BSU fan but nothing but respect for the Rebs . We had to pull out all the stops to win and Ashton was shutdown. Could have gone either way for sure

[@hrpickinstuff]

I was at the game. Great college football environment. Proud of our team. They played great 1 turnover and a bad roughing the passer call against UNLV at a critical time. Sealed their fate. That Boise State team is legit. They look like the old Chris Petersen teams. Jeanty is awsome. That man almost unstoppable. His numbers weren't huge but he got the yards when they needed them almost every time.

[@mr.c8033]

UNLV is so fortunate to have a dude that has 180'd that program so fast, and put it in the national conversation. No Vegas casino would have took odds on that happening not that long ago. I don't know who their DC is but, give that guy a raise.

[@CHILLknowsfootball]

I respect and believe everything he said... great game, great atmosphere, great post-game press conference. UNLV can be great, trust the process.

“I know what college football can be in Vegas and I’m sure thankful for that” 💯

[@EZ-ri3pl]

UNLV competed with a very good BSU team. Bronco fans showed up. Exciting game. Congrats on the win. Go Rebels!

[@billl1127]

I was at this game and enjoyed the energy from both fan bases.

[@bring156]

If these teams meet again this year it could be even more interesting!

[@DavidBigelow-kv9mu]

BSU fan here. Terrific game, tremendous respect for the UNLV team and the tremendous job Odom has done in rebuilding the program. What a great coach!

[@arecizzle]

What a game, didn't the dub but it's a process to build a team to win championships and Odom is our man to get us there!

[@208flatheads3]

Almost 50k people at a unlv game.. crazy times.

[@billl1127]

Lots of energy from two passionate fan bases

[@hrpickinstuff]

I was there. Great game. AWSOME college football environment

[@scwirig]

Great work coach. We will get another shot.

[@Suburbanrust]

He's a great coach

[@billl1127]

Respect to Odom and UNLV for a battle to the end.

[@tkelly5422]

Go Rebels!

[@tommyrsrracer]

We are heading in the right direction, we need to keep this momentum going, we need a QB, it’s not the program’s fault a spoiled kid left all his teammates behind, Rebel for life. We also need to keep this coaching staff.

[@user-oq9ly8lr9z]

You must have not watched the game. #6 of UNLV was brilliant last night.

[@davidbowman8962]

BSU fan. UNLV should be ranked. What a defense to play against. They did to AJ something that UO and WSU couldn’t do.

[@andrewwhipple7162]

Join the PAC!

[@drag0..]

Nah

[@duanehaldeman8571]

When you give up 6 Sacks & 9 Tackles for Loss but don't even touch Boise's QB...what you expect??? #91 on UNLV is an EMBARRASSMENT to the game of football getting pushed around like he's on roller skates. Our QB was scared and many others were scared too. We need to recruit BIGGER O & D linemen. Thats where games are won & lost is on the line of scrimmage. We getting there. Hats off to Odom and the rest of the coaching staff

[@parsin4793]

I think we will see each other again in Boise .

[@liljoe31]

kind of have to admire how boise keeps coming to UNLV and basically beats them at their own game. qb sneaks, sacks and turnovers. the going for it on 4th down at the 3 yard line w a play action pass for a TD was the ultimate " we're better than you and we both know it" moment

[@claudiamarlow5265]

Seems like they are about even it was anybody’s game to win

[@jesterscorner879]

@@claudiamarlow5265 Yes and no. I would say it was anyone's game at the end of the 3rd Quarter/Beginning of the 4th, but after the final score by Boise and the fact that Boise State held onto the ball for over 8 minutes on their final drive of the game and denied UNLV the chance to even try to score for that whole time was something that definitely stood out for Boise. I don't think UNLV had a possession anywhere near that long for the whole game. UNLV also had an insanely high forced turnover rate coming into this game and got goose egged in that respect. This isn't to say that Odom hasn't done an insanely good job with UNLV, he definitely has, but I do think that Boise State has a level of discipline and stamina that is above where UNLV is at. UNLV might get there at the end of this year or the beginning of next year though.

[@claudiamarlow5265]

@@jesterscorner879If Boise had literally made a mistake or a turnover it may have been a different result. I can see the level of dedication and hard work UNLV puts in and see the improvement from last year til now

[@liljoe31]

@claudia yes, two plays decided the game: Woodard had another INT go right through his hands on one of boise's TD drives. the other was Williams INT at the end of first half cost them the game. the phantom holding call on Grimes just sealed the deal. as amy longtime UNLV person knows, the ncaa will screw us if they can, and they did w that horrible call, along w the phantom delay of game w one second on the play clock as they were driving

[@NOTLeavingLV]

What sort of news organization spoils the highlight reel by putting the outcome in the thumbnail of their press conference video.

[@CSDonohue11]

Aw man…. 😞 😏REBS FOOTBALL STILL COMING 💪

[@jamesedwards6129]

The difference in this game was Boise pass rush. Williams had no time all night to try and find Ricky White

[@billl1127]

That was Boise's best hope to contain Ricky White

[@jamesedwards6129]

@@billl1127 Yes & also Boise made no mistakes, no dumb penalties in critical moments & that’s why they’ll win the MWC. UNLV is not ready yet

[@EchoKilo]

Looks like y’all don’t miss that punk QB who thought he was worth $100k and a free education. Well done.

[@DavidBigelow-kv9mu]

Hajj is unbelievable. A very dangerous dual threat QB. Sluka was a good runner but terrible passer.

[@simonhitt5791]

As a BSU fan I was licking my chops through the first few weeks at the thought of our pass rush going up against Sluka, HMW gave me a lot more anxiety being able to throw the ball. You guys had an outstanding game plan for Jeanty, see you in Boise in December 🤙

[@Denouncepricegouging]

Big mistake for unlv to stay in the new weak mwc. You wont have games like this anymore.
