MOSCOW, Idaho -- Lexington Thomas had a career-high 190 yards rushing and three touchdowns, Armani Rogers and Devonte Boyd had the longest pass play in school history and UNLV bounced back from one of the biggest upsets in college history with a 44-16 win over Idaho on Saturday night.

After an Idaho touchdown, Armani hit Rogers for a 94-yard catch and run, a Rebel record by seven yards.
