New Mexico/Montana?

LT Profits · 03-14-10, 10:15 PM

Na. New Mexico will reach Sweet 16

TPowell · 03-14-10, 10:17 PM

LT, thought you may agree with me on this. They are like 77% to win against Montana, which is like 20% lower than any other fave that high

TPowell · 03-14-10, 10:18 PM

I happen to love Alford though so I'm trying not to biased

LT Profits · 03-14-10, 10:19 PM

I think Marquette will be more of a challenge second round.

NM is too tough. Tough as nails. NM or no play...

What is there about a team that played in a crap conference and crap schedule and lost to Eastern Washington and Idaho St in the process that gives you reason to back them vs a team playing 2.5 months of solid basketball outside of their tournament loss to SDST playing for an NCAA bid?

Montana isn't a pushover and they have a kid who could breakout in March.

I dont understand the hype over this New Mexico team.

suckerforparlays · 03-14-10, 10:39 PM

All I no is I wanna watch that game!

TPowell · 03-14-10, 10:41 PM

yeah will be interested to see if Johnson goes off...... may make a play ATS on Montana

They are the best team from the most underrated conference in the country.

why does Ken Pom have them in the 40's though? Makes me wonder.......

And BYU 7.

TPowell · 03-14-10, 10:57 PM

LT, you don't think BYU is the #7 team in the country? Maybe Ken meant 7 seed?

LT Profits · 03-14-10, 11:03 PM

I think New Mexico is better than BYU, I think there is a bug in Ken's computer.

The reason you don't like them is cause they don't come from a sexy Conferance. This team causes huge matchup problems, if Gary was the pg for duke, cuse, g-town etc....espn and company would of already touted him all over the place. Their long and play fast, and their top player hopson can hurt you inside and out. You can't close down one guy, very well rounded IMO

Ha...just saw vitale take nova over duke, finally. His love for the acc makes me wanna puke...

Agree on this LT, MWC gets no respect

avsrock26 · 03-15-10, 03:11 PM

Montana will get blown out in this game.

killersweet · 03-15-10, 03:12 PM

NMex will get a fight from Montana, but i think Nmex will prevail. I think they have a good shot at sweet 16 too LT.

suckerforparlays · 03-15-10, 04:24 PM

Ineresting game. Its the wondering case if Montana is this years Davidson?.......... I love New Mexico dont get me wrong there a great ball club and I have them beating Marquette in the 2nd round. But Montana is defintly a game Im gonna watch!
