I hope New Mexico is in a death spiral (0-2 in two MWC games in which they were favored, including UNLV at home). Sometimes teams just start losing for no apparent reason. (Dissention?) That's our hope tonight.

I think the Pit has caused more grief for us fans of the U than any other arena. So many losses of the rip-your-hear-out-of-your-chest-while-it's-still-beating variety.Originally posted by SeattleUte View Post
Ugh.
The team needs to control the tempo of this game from the opening tip. Anything less than 40 solid minutes could be another punch in the stomach."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill

I'm anxious to see how this team responds to the Pit. Getting loose balls, minimizing second shots and turnovers can go a long way in keeping the crowd at bay. Go Utes."You interns are like swallows. You shit all over my patients for six weeks and then fly off."

Amazing that the line for this game is only ten points. I'm taking UNM to cover easily.Comment

Both teams struggling.
Drca sucks. Washburn who SU was all over is not impressive.
Watkins is solid.
Foster is tall but UNM is not intimidated they are taking it to him on every play.*Banned*Comment

I've said before that Drca and Tillie are just not D1 players in my humble opinion. I give them credit for sticking around the program and give Boylen credit for sticking with them, but I just think the team will be better off without them next year.Originally posted by cougjunkie View Post
Washburn and Foster are young (age for one and basketball-wise for both), but I think there is certainly great potential in both. I can't remember a guy like Watkins at Utah, his style just isn't one that has been recruited in the last 10 years or so."They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.Comment

the last 4 minutes of the half Utah couldnt hit the broadside of a barn."Be a philosopher. A man can compromise to gain a point. It has become apparent that a man can, within limits, follow his inclinations within the arms of the Church if he does so discreetly." - The Walking Drum

Frustrating end to the 1st half. Turnovers, poor defense, and no ability to get a good shoot on offense."You interns are like swallows. You shit all over my patients for six weeks and then fly off."

Wow I just wandered over to Utefans and there was a hell of a meltdown this afternoon. Does this game have everyone tense, or were they fighting over billboard ads again?Comment

The Lobos played well and I thought Alford had a very good game plan. The Lobos certainly didn't shy away from taking the ball inside, despite Utah's height advantage. Foster will be a good player with more experience, but he is no Luke Nevill at this point. Here's hoping Jimmer is fully recovered when the Cougs visit the Lobos in two weeks.Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.
