Watched the game here in ABQ, and I'm a Lobo fan that thought you guys we were going to beat you...
Great defensive play by SDSU as they had the Lobo offense in check at every position.
Look forward to our next game and I'm glad you guys are still in the MW, should make for more great rivalry games in the future!

I'm surprised by the outcome of today's game in that I thought it would go down to the wire. At the end of the day, it's one game. A statement game this one, but we had two statement games last week that were not so good.

This was Aztec baskeball. Defense is how we win. I think we got a little away from that over the past few games. We now have 3 straight halves giving up less than 20 points.
The rebounding was way lop sided too. UNM had 1 offensive rebound with 10 minutes to go while the Aztecs were pulling down 45% of their misses. That is somewhat surprising. I think Kirk may not have been 100%. He didn't look like the same player.

I was pretty stunned the whole game, waiting for a run ... that never happened. The Lobos are a GREAT team. This was a HUGE win we desperately needed. Looking forward to my trip on Feb 27th.

Seriously.......the Aztecs were up 14....then 17......with just under 10 minutes left in the game........and none of us felt comfortable about it. I don't think anyone in the arena did. It was one of those games where you just expected a UNM run.......you could sense it coming, but it luckily never happened.

Feeling a little better about my trip to Vegas next month. I think we're going to be hungry to payback those rascally rebels.

a thumping, yes. However, 9 points in one half against WYO?

It was one bad game.......or REALLY bad half. They were abysmal. Embarrassing (the team's words, not necessarily mine). It happens. Look at what happened to Duke last week against Miami? The key is how they rebounded from it, and from the looks of things it was just the wakeup call they needed. They played a very nice TEAM game yesterday against UNM, and that's what they're going to need going forward. Continue to do that and play good team defense and everything else will fall into place.
