Friday, January 17, 2025 at 11:00 pm

This is a play on the NEW MEXICO LOBOS for our CBB Friday Late Powerhouse. We played against New Mexico on Tuesday and while not expecting the outright loss, the Lobos did in fact lose outright by a point as a 9.5-point favorite. They are now back home where they are 9-1 with the only loss coming against rival New Mexico St. in overtime which was a bad loss considering they were 20-point favorites but strange things can happen in those rivalry games. New Mexico is 5-1 in Quad 2 games with the only loss coming against surprisingly good Arizona St. by three points on a neutral floor and this is a big bounce back opportunity to stay in first place in the Mountain West Conference. Boise St. improved to 5-2 in the conference which is one game out of first place with a resounding 41-point win at home over Wyoming, recovering from a tough two-point loss at Utah St. prior to that. The Broncos are 2-2 on the road with the other loss coming at San Francisco by 11 points with the two wins coming at San Jose St. and at Wyoming and overall, they are just 2-4 against teams ranked No. 80 or better in the NET Rankings. Boise St. won here by eight points last season as a 10.5-point underdog and the Lobos have not forgotten that. 10* (894) New Mexico Lobos
