LoboSage Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 No thread yet?...lack of interest from both fan bases it seems. I'll give the edge to SDSU/Viejas. I actually had plans to be there...game tickets, air fare, hotel reservations...work circumstances put the kibosh on my plans. The battle of somewhat embattled second year coaches.

Swoll Cracker Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Point spread is 7. Seems a tad high but neither of these teams has shown any consistency from game to game. Based on history, I would expect a highly competitive game. Given their last performances, I expect both teams to scrap pretty hard for 40 minutes.

TheSanDiegan Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The Aztecs are the all-time winningest program in the MWC with 11 titles. The Lobos are next with eight. No one else in this clown car has more than three. And look at us now. How far this conference has fallen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there the last time Da Loobs came to town. There was a father with his 11-ish year old daughter seated some rows behind us. Every time an Aztec was at the stripe, she would let loose this candy van scream that made my blood curdle. #StayClassyNewMexico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSanDiegan Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I was surprised by New Mexico's length when I watched their game against Nevada. I don't think we'll have any edge on them athletically-speaking. Neither team is where their fan base or the pre-season media thought they would be. I have absolutely zero expectations for tonight. Two teams will show up to play basketball. That's all I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobos have been no-shows in SEVERAL, games this year... advantage SDSU, by at least 10-12 pts. "Make a mistake once and it becomes a lesson, make the same mistake twice and it becomes a choice."

quickdraw Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Well there's something that you don't see every day. A shot from the 3pt line on the opposite end of the court.....and swish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chance to tie or take the lead, then a turnover leads to that bomb at the buzzer to send them into the half down 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
