New Mexico Lobos
Last time out, New Mexico hosted the Nevada Wolf Pack and suffered a tough 77-76 defeat. The Mountain West has produced some of the best game of the college basketball season and this was another example of that. The Wolf Pack led by four points at the break, but it was a back and forth second half. Grabbing the lead with 18 seconds left, the Lobos allowed Nevada to come down the court and hit the game winner as time expired. New Mexico trailed by as many as eight points, led by six, and lost outright as five-point home favorites.
Jamal Mashburn Jr. had 21 points and six assists on the night. Morris Udeze added 18 points, nine rebound, two assists, two steals, and two blocks in the loss.
Through 24 games, New Mexico is scoring 81.8 points per game, shooting 49.0% from the field, and assisting on 14.2 made shots. The Lobos are allowing 71.7 points, grabbing 68.5 rebounds, blocking 4.1 shots, and stealing the ball 7.0 times.
Air Force Falcons
Air Force hosted the Colorado State Rams and were comfortably beaten 69-53. This game was tight for the first 18 minutes, but the Rams went on a run and went into halftime leading by six. That momentum carried into the second half as the Falcons sputtered along to another loss. Air Force trailed by as many as 19 points, never led by more than five, and could not cover the +1.0-point spread.
Beau Becker had 13 points, four rebounds, and one block in the defeat.
After 25 games, Air Force is scoring 66.4 points per game, shooting 45.7% from the field, and assisting on 15.2 made shots. The Falcons are allowing 66.0 points, grabbing 29.4 rebounds, blocking 4.2 shots, and stealing the ball 5.8 times.
