HOLY COW! New Mexico State Aggies!!! (Las Cruces, Deming: appointed, cost, title)

[Towanda]

Who saw that game last night?

WOW! THREE OVERTIMES and the Aggies hung right in there right up till the end.

I was screaming and yelling right up until the last second of the third overtime.

They sure don't have a single thing to be ashamed of .... I wish they were going to the NCAA Tournament.

[TKO]

Not enough sleep last night and hoarse from yelling. It was a great game - they have nothing to be ashamed of. I hope they make it to the NIT.

I was at the game. And What a game it Was!! The Aggies started off very flat but came back strong at the end. The atmosphere was great in the Pan Am Center...very loud!! Herb Pope is going to a great one by the time he graduates. The refs were horrible!!

We left Phoenix Saturday morning and made it to Cruces around 4:30. Tried to go to Go Burger but it was closed (had to settle for Roberto's). The Pan am is very different now...Very cool and much louder.

On the way back to Az we hit a massive dust storm in Deming (5 mins later they closed the road...my friends parents were turned back to Cruces).

At lordsburg he headed the back way into Phoenix..Avoiding that Lordsburg to Wilcox stretch and the Tucson to Phoenix Stretch...

Go Burger is only open on weekdays until 6. It's a shame you didn't get a shot at the burritos here. To me, they are the best in Las Cruces.

I have had them plenty of times (my Favorite spot for lunch when I worked at Hermosa Heights). Was craving one starting at Deming...LOL. Very disappointed to see the closed sign. After the game we checked out Hurricane Alley. They had a good band playing...

I read they were upset that the NIT didn't select them as they turned down the new CBI tournament as the AD said it wasn't worth the cost to host any games in that tournament. I wish they would have entered it as it would be more experience for the returning players next year. I see UTEP entered it.

Tonights the NCAA Women Basketball selection tournament picks .
Go NMSU
Go UTEP
Go UNM
Go Eastern NM
Go Western NM
Go NM HIghlands

[EnjoyEP]

Yeah 6 FOOT, but I was shocked that the NIT passed them by!! How were the Aggies not an NIT-worthy team? That doesn't make sense to me.

[ibarrio]

Doesn't make sense at all. Too much East Coast Bias. Not only NMSU but Nev. as well.

[desert sun]

NMSU should have gone to the NIT,they played a tough non confrence schedule and deserved the spot over some of the teams that were picked, but at least we got one New Mexico team in the NCAA tourney--Go lady lobos.

[Six Foot Three]

I see the NIT left out NMSU Women's basketball team who finished 23-8 and played in the WAC title game. I see there are 4 teams they picked at 16-15 as we are always getting shafted out here in the Rocky Mountain Southwest.

I for one won't watch that damn tournament......

Great season lady Aggies........
