Cal State Bakersfield vs. New Mexico State

New Mexico State lost a dominating force in the paint, when their 7'6" center graduated last season. That didn't stop them from posting a 13-1 record in the WAC, good for the regular season Championship. The Aggies come into the tournament under some pressure, as they have won 11 straight games, but they are also aware that one slip, and no NCAA Tournament. CS Bakersfield finished 7-7 in conference play, and are off a big 15 point win in the tourney opener, holding Utah Valley to 40 points. I think the roadrunners control the tempo here, and have been good enough defensively to stay inside a big number. Play the points on CS Bakersfield.
