Yes, it was embarrassing and disappointing, but I'm never going to be surprised at anything that happens when we play that school in almost anything.
And NMSU is currently projected as a 14 seed, probably WAC champ; La Tech can get in if they win CUSA (they are 2nd, 1 game back of North Texas with 3 to play) - so It's not like we went out and lost to an 8-18 UNO.
We actually played a decent OOC schedule this year - and did relatively well - which is why we are still in the first four out right now.
We just need to win these last 3 and take care of business
