New Mexico vs San Diego State Prediction
New Mexico beat San Diego State a few weeks ago and was competitive in the first meeting, losing by four points on the road. The difference here is we’re not being asked to lay much and San Diego State is coming off a balanced performance last night. There’s also a strong SDSU crowd presence in Las Vegas, which helps as well. If San Diego State is going to bring that effort defensively, this should be a tight victory. I’d need points to consider the Lobos. This line is too soft. Give me San Diego State.
