If anything's a take-away from this game, it's that CSU's for real. The caught up to us after being down 18 at the half, and they were really one shot away from a tie with UNM. The out-of-bounds call on a 3-pointer kind of killed CSU's last gasp mojo. But they kept pounding the ball. New Mexico barely got away from this one with a win.

New Mexico barely got away from this one with a win. if they shoot their average from FT, they win I never understand comments like this. You are correct, of course. But, say, if SDSU hit their season's average from 3 vs CSU you lose. What do you take away from that? The better team won tonight. Good win today. Took our foot off the gas when up 20 and went 8 minutes without a point. Shot 36% for the game and got outrebounded by 18(!). Kirk and Bairstow only combined for 7. (Kirk the latest with the flu) Yet still got the W more or less convincingly. Now 6-0 vs top 50 RPI teams. Saturday is gonna be a great game. UNM will bring their D but will need some real offense to get the W. Not sure I wanna venture which way it will go. For me its 50/50. Good luck tonight and here's to hoping X gets healthy fast for you guys.

If New Mexico scores more points than the other team like they did tonight, I think it will be tough for the Aztecs to win.

Excited for Saturdays game. I'm hoping one of our bigs puts cocky a$$ Shep in his place. Maybe a few choice HARD screens. Every time I see that kid play, the less I like him (and the more he reminds me of JF).

Enough.
