ALBUQUERQUE, N.M – The New Mexico men’s basketball team begins a two-game trip to Colorado on Tuesday night with a matchup with Colorado State. Game time at Moby Arena in Fort Collins is 7:00 p.m. and the game will air on the Mountain West Network and the Lobo Radio Network.
The Lobos (11-3, 2-1 MW) are looking for their first conference road win of the season. New Mexico is coming off a 78-58 home win on Saturday night over Wyoming. Tomislav Buljan led UNM against the Cowboys with a season-high 25 points to go with 12 rebounds. He earned his third Mountain West Freshman of the Week honor on Monday.
Colorado State (10-4, 1-2 MW) is coming off a 70-60 road win at Grand Canyon on Saturday to snap a two-game losing streak to open conference play. The Rams rank fifth nationally in 3-point percentage at 41.8 percent, but rank last nationally in pace at just 62.9 possessions per game.
New Mexico leads the all-time series 82-53, but the Rams hold a 28-26 edge at Moby Arena. UNM’s 26 wins at Moby are the most by any visiting team since the arena opened in 1965-66. The Lobos have won the last four meetings, including a season sweep of the series last year.
The Lobos will conclude the road trip Saturday at Air Force. Game time at Clune Arena is 1 p.m. and the game will air on Mountain West Network.
