We are about to find out just how good the Nevada Wolf Pack football team is this season. The Wolf Pack is 4-0 right now but the first four weeks were nothing but a glorified scrimmage in near-empty stadiums, a mere opportunity for Carson Strong to stretch out his right arm and Romeo Doubs to stretch out his hamstrings. It’s easy to win, after all, when you are the only team on the field with an offense designed after 1962.
