Mountain West Basketball Open Thread: SDSU Vs. UNLV Is Main Event

by Jeremy Mauss on Feb 11, 2012 1:14 PM PST in Mountain West Basketball

There are some big games today in the Mountain West and none are bigger than the matchup between two top-20 teams in San Diego State and UNLV. The first time around these two teams played it was San Diego State who won, but this time the game is in Las Vegas.

Wyoming vs. New Mexico is a battle of bubble teams, but it is Wyoming who needs this win more than New Mexico. Then there is Colorado State against TCU, and while the marquee wins for Colorado State are slim they just need to rack up as many wins as possible to get a good look at the NCAA tournament.

Game schedule:

Wyoming Cowboys at New Mexico Lobos 3:30 p.m. ET (The Mtn.)

San Diego St. Aztecs at UNLV Rebels 4 p.m. ET (NBC Sports)

Colorado St. Rams at TCU Horned Frogs 8:30 p.m. ET (The Mtn.)

Boise St. Broncos at Air Force Falcons 9 p.m. ET (CBS Sports Network)

Took in the UNLV SDSU game live

great game, great atmosphere. The Aztecs almost came back for the win, couple of calls late that could’ve gone either way that might have swung the game. Total shame this rivalry will be cut short.

great game

hurts to lose but it was a better result than I was expecting before the game and CERTAINLY when they were down double digits with less than 10 to play. I just hope we get a Round 3 in the conference tournament!
