Las Vegas - If you're not familiar with the PIT in Albuquerque, lemme throw some numbers at you. New Mexico has won 13 of 14 at home this season and wins over 80% of its game in front of the wild bunch. Richard Pitino's Lobos have been rocking the Mountain West, winning seven in a row and 14 of the last 15 overall. This game is for the top dog in the MWC and it's gonna be a blast. New Mexico beat Utah State on the road in Logan back on February 1, 82-63. Not sure what is gonna be different this time around but not thrilled laying six points. The Lobos beat Wyoming on Wednesday night 71-67 but failed to cover the 16.5 point spread. Did anyone say LOOK AHEAD? Expecting another huge effort from New Mexico on the inside (Nelly Joseph) and outside (Donovan Dent). However, we're thinking the game might get really tight, so we're on the Lobos, but will buy the money line.
