New Mexico at TCU (+3.5) - 6:00pm Pacific - Game #543-544
The Horned Frogs rank 4th in the nation in steals per game and their style of play is much more conducive to success at home. They are 9-1 at home this season and have won three straight home conference games dating back to last season, covering the spread in all three by double digits. Two JC transfers and two freshman have improved the talent level and depth from previous seasons allowing them to finally play their preferred uptempo style. First year wing Selter leads the team in scoring and rebounding while shooting over 50% from behind the arc. Top two scorers from last year Langford and Hackett are also back averaging in double figures. New Mexico has had some sort of favorable circumstances in each of their last eight games, whether it be opponents getting in early foul trouble, suffering injuries, or just facing bad/overrated teams. After surviving two consecutive overtime wins, they lost at home to San Diego State on Saturday despite the Aztecs playing without starting point guard Williams due to injury. This will be TCU's first conference home game with students back in session. They will be the hungrier team and can favorably compete with the Lobos on their home court. Take the points.

Play: TCU +3.5  0.5 UNIT |  WIN 74-72
