02/05/25 Colorado State vs. New Mexico

Colorado State travels to Albuquerque after having won four games in a row. In their most recent game against Air Force, they secured a decisive 79-58 win.

New Mexico is truly proving themselves, consistently racking up impressive victories.

In their most recent game against a strong Utah State team, they traveled on the road and successfully secured an 82-63 victory.

New Mexico bursts into this game with an impressive 18-4 overall record and a solid 11-10 performance against the spread. At home this season they have gone 9-1 straight up. The Lobos are averaging 83.4 points per game, while their defense is allowing 72 points per game. The offense is ranked 17th in the league. This team is known for accelerating the pace, particularly during home games. When they establish an early lead, coupled with the dynamic atmosphere at home, they have been tough to beat. 

Colorado State will enter this matchup with a mark of 14-7. They have an average of 74.1 points per outing while hitting 46.9% from the floor. This team faced significant challenges and struggled in November and December; however, they put together a great run in January, suffering only a single defeat throughout the month. Since December 14, the team has lost just two games.

The issue is that the competition has not been strong, and I anticipate a potential regression to the CSU results we saw in December rather than those from January.

New Mexico has won 14 of its last 15 games against Conference opponents, and I think that trend continues tonight. Lay the points in The Pit with the Lobos.
