thejrichshow85 · 03-11-12, 05:29 PM

new mexico wins ...i see new mexico going to the sweet 16

cankid · 03-11-12, 05:38 PM

new mexico seems to be peaking at the right time

No coincidences · 03-11-12, 05:43 PM

LBSU and Wichita State are the two most dangerous mid-majors in the tourney.

Inkwell77 · 03-11-12, 05:48 PM

Not a very good matchup for LBSU. Ware could maybe do well against Greenwood, but all the other matchups may be tough.
Was hoping they would play someone like UNLV, Florida, Vanderbilt, or Michigan.

ebbearsfb1 · 03-11-12, 05:51 PM

Sucks how the committe does that... they give vandy harvard... then witchia gets vcu and new mexico gets lb state... boo

zoo youk · 03-11-12, 06:10 PM

if larry anderson is still hurt lbsu has no chance

PickWinnerAllDay · 03-11-12, 06:10 PM

Also pissed off they put VCU against Wichita State.

seaborneq · 03-11-12, 07:13 PM

LBSU should have gotten a better seed and so should NMU.

SmackdownV · 03-11-12, 07:17 PM

New Mexico is going out in the first round.

Anyone want to wager against me.

I'll put up 500 SBR points on Long Beach ML..........

Deadly draw for New Mexico.

darrell74 · 03-11-12, 07:26 PM

I'll take that wager.
Where's your 500 points?

beerman2619 · 03-11-12, 07:26 PM

Was happy when they announced these teams coming to Portland. Live near Portland and got tickets for tourney some good games are headed this way.

I'll shift 500 points in a second and post again..........we have a wager my friend.

Silly you losing 500 points like that!

SmackdownV · 03-11-12, 07:35 PM

Here they are.

Don't be a biatch.

We have a 500 point bet.......I have the LBS ML and you have New Mexico.....

At the conclusion of the game I expect my 500 Points fella.

barza01 · 03-11-12, 07:40 PM

No backing down now Darrell...this should be one hell of a game. GL to both.

SmackdownV · 03-11-12, 07:44 PM

Thanks barza!

I started the official thread so neither one of us can run away from the challenge.......

Hope he's not pooping his pants now.

No............

He has New Mexico...........I have the LBS............

Whoever wins wins.

SmackdownV · 03-11-12, 07:47 PM

If New Mexico wins I pay him 500

If LBS wins...........EASY!!!!!!!!!!!!! He pays me 500

No ML...........Just a straight 500

SmackdownV · 03-11-12, 08:01 PM

Darell74 chickened out.

What a Gay Fella he is.

thetrinity · 03-11-12, 10:09 PM

puked when i saw this game almost. will be a great game for tv, and a great game for the greedy 6 as someones 1 n done. also hate that wichita plays vcu first round.

k13 · 03-11-12, 10:17 PM

Not sure why Long Beach and Murray State are getting so much love from internet forum people everywhere.

Doubt either one makes it to the sweet 16. Might not even win a game.

zoo youk · 03-11-12, 10:22 PM

agree with k3. Larry Anderson is a huge loss. NM will handle LBSU. NM goes about 8 to 9 deep while LbSu is 6 deep

InTheDrink · 03-11-12, 10:26 PM

what are you guys talking about anderson being hurt? he missed the conference tourney but he'll be playing in the dance

the unofficial word is that he'll "be fine"

lbsu wins this game...keep in mind that 12's beat 5's all the time

thetrinity · 03-11-12, 10:33 PM

does anyone else realize that new mexico is playing as good as anyone right now? i like this long beach st team a lot but new mexico has more talent end of story, people are talking like lb st is favored.

seaborneq · 03-11-12, 10:35 PM

Both of these teams could win a couple of games if this were not a first round matchup. Winner makes sweet 16.

Damn I liked both of these teams to make a little run in the tournament. Sucks they are playing each other in the first round. Gonna be a great game.

Same here , was hoping to see these two carve up some favs and meet in the 16 but agree will be probably the best 1st rd game of them all.

rm18 · 03-12-12, 12:10 AM

Larry Anderson will play but would not be sure that he is fine if he just missed a must win game yesterday.

I agree 100%

zoo youk · 03-12-12, 03:18 PM

you guys are ******* crazy. New Mexico is so deep its not even funny. LBSU plays about 1 player off their bench, the starters play about 38 minutes a game.

polishkielbasa10 · 03-12-12, 03:47 PM

Lol

LT Profits · 03-12-12, 04:53 PM

New Mexico is my favorite sleeper in the entire field, the are a LOT better than Long Beach and they are the best team right now from the best mid-major conference in the country.
