THE SKINNY Nevada will kick off the 2014 campaign and year two of the Brian Polian era Saturday, hosting Football Championship Subdivision foe Southern Utah ...

Nevada was predicted to finish third in the West Division of the Mountain West by the media, while
Brock Hekking was tabbed as a preseason first team selection ... The Pack returns two players who earned all-conference honors in 2013; Hekking (first team) and
Charles Garrett (honorable mention) ... In the first season under Polian, Nevada posted a 4-8 overall record while finishing 3-5 in the conference ... The Wolf Pack will return 17 starters (7 offense, 9 defense, 1 special teams) from last season and 39 letterwinners (16/22/1) ... Quarterback
Cody Fajardo - en route to becoming a fourth-year starter - returns for his senior season ranking third in school history in total offense (9,597) ... Polian added two new coaches to his staff for the 2014 season; Scott Boone (Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers) and Cheston Blackshear (Tight Ends).
