Well round 1 is now behind us. And what classic games we had to get to this point. SDSU v CSU will forever live as a classic to everyone. New Mexico got a real fight out of the Academy from Air Force, but were able to hold on. BYU got a much tigher game then I had perdicted. And the Utes fell badly to the home UNLV Rebels Now for round 2 action.
The first game of the day is the New Mexico Lobos going up against the San Diego State Aztecs. Both teams had to play a very hard game to make it to round two. But I'm sure both are ready for today's game. San Diego State would love to beat the Lobos and lock up a spot in the big dance. But New Mexico is out to get a 2 seed in the tourney. I think when its all said and done. The Aztecs will not be able to keep up with the Lobos. Look for a close game though.
My Pick: New Mexico
The final game of the mens day is the BYU Cougars going up against the home UNLV Runnin' Rebels. BYU hit a groove yesterday. With there star Jimmer Ferdette scoring 45 points. UNLV took care of Utah with ease. So look for these two great rivals to clash head to head. I don't see there being a strong favorite here. BYU has struggled with UNLV on there own floor. And UNLV is generally hits a wall after a 5 game win streak. Which they currently have. Both teams will come to play, but BYU is out for the title this year. Not to mention if New Mexico does win the Cougs will want to have another shot at taking down the Lobos, where they were unable to do during the regular season. I see a classic game, ending with a Jimmer Miracle.
My Pick: BYU
