-Senior QB Ty Gangi passed Jeff Rowe for ninth in career passing TDs at Nevada and now has 56 in his career, one behind Cody Fajardo for eighth.
-Ty Gangi has thrown a TD pass in 26 consecutive games, which ranks second in the nation.

-Junior RB Kelton Moore scored his fourth rushing TD of the season on a season-long run of 46 yards, putting Nevada up 20-0 in the first quarter. He finished the game with 129 rushing yards on just 13 carries, his first 100-yard game of the season and fifth of his career.
