STEVENS: Lobos' Hobson Scores 29 as UNM Beats SDSU 88-86 In OvertimeLobo TV: Postgame Press ConferenceIt was a nail-biter, a cliffhanger, a Pit classic, a battle of Mountain West heavyweights as Lobos and Aztecs played dead even for 44 minutes and 57 seconds. However, the final three seconds of overtime went to the Lobos as junior Darington Hobson tossed in two free throws to give New Mexico an 88-86 overtime win over the San Diego State Aztecs. The Lobos, who were once in the MWC cellar at 0-2, are now tied for the league lead with Brigham Young and UNLV at 7-2. The Lobos visit the UNLV Rebs on Wednesday.
Saturday: Lobos 88, San Diego State 86

STEVENS: Lobos Vs. Aztecs A Game of Irony, Deja Vu & Much MoreThe Lobos vs. San Diego State game is a contest of déjà vu, a game of redemption, a game of irony, a revenge game, a must game, a sold-out game, a TV game, a game nobody should miss. The good thing about déjà vu is that even though there are intense similarities, there also are differences. You feel déjà vu in the present tense. The present tense Saturday will be staged in The Pit with a sold-out University Arena doing its rowdy thing to make sure history doesn't repeat itself on the scoreboard.
Saturday: San Diego State at Lobos, 4 p.m., The Pit  2/4/2010
No. 15 UNM Puts 6-Game Win Streak on the Line SaturdayNew Mexico (20-3, 6-2 MWC) hopes being ranked 15th in the A.P. poll is not a bad omen when it opens the second half of MWC action Saturday against San Diego State (16-6, 5-3 MWC).
