| Final - |

| 2nd Half - 1:36 |
| UNLV fans are waiving good bye to BYU fans in a good-natured manner as this game is all but over now with the Rebels up 14. The Rebels are going to be Mountain West champions for a second straight year. |
| 2nd Half - 2:00 |
| Adams went to the bench with two minutes left for a bit of a break. Some fans are starting to head for the exits with the lead now at 10 points for the first time in the game. This is not looking good for BYU now. |
| 2nd Half - 3:36 |
| Wink Adams has hit three straight three pointers, giving UNLV a nine point lead with just over three minutes left. BYU has to start a run soon. They are running out of time. |
| 2nd Half - 3:46 |
| Adams is running the show now. He stroked a three from the corner to give UNLV a 61-54 lead after the Cougars had cut it to four points and then another the next time down the floor to make it 64-56. |
