Around the WAC

Idaho’s overtime win over Fresno State last week was encouraging to Vandals coach George Pfeifer. What was impressive to Pfeifer was his team rallied from a 19-point deficit. He said the comeback showed a lot of character. … Interesting statistic from Idaho’s 85-72 loss to Nevada last Saturday: The Wolf Pack outscored the Vandals 32-8 at the free-throw line. … Pfeifer was asked this week if he likes the BracketBusters games. “We have it, we do it. My opinion on it doesn’t really matter,” Pfeifer said after a pause. … Nevada’s win at Idaho capped a stretch of five games in 10 days. The Wolf Pack went 4-1. “We looked like a bunch of zombies going home from Idaho (Sunday),” Nevada coach Mark Fox said. … Nevada’s Marcelus Kemp was named the WAC player of the week. He had 32 points at Idaho, including 15-of-15 shooting from the free-throw line.
