The UNLV football team beat San Diego State 41-20 Saturday at Allegiant Stadium.

The Rebels (8-2, 4-1) had a 28-6 lead at halftime and maintained a large advantage over the Aztecs (3-7, 2-3) throughout.

UNLV quarterback Hajj-Malik Williams completed 19 of 28 passes for 244 yards and a touchdown. He also had two rushing touchdowns.

All-American kick returner Jacob De Jesus caught seven passes for 75 yards and added 42 rushing yards. It was his first appearance for UNLV since he exited the team's loss to Mountain West leader Boise State with a leg injury on Oct. 26.

The Rebels still have a chance to reach the Mountain West title game, though they need Colorado State to lose one of its last two games.
