NMSU was just too much, and at one point (or for most of the second half) it men vs. boys.
After a week filled with drama, and change the UTEP basketball team continues it’s downward spiral with an ugly 80-60 loss to NMSU.
Four Aggies scored in double figures, while no UTEP players scored in double figures. After a quick UTEP start, NMSU took over from there, and the anguish of another losing season sent UTEP fans home early.
The Aggies shot 51.9 percent from the floor, forced 18 UTEP turnovers and out scored UTEP 38-26 in the paint in a dominating performance.
