It sucks that this one is on a Saturday afternoon, don't know if if I'll be able to watch it. We should win this one.

They purposely schedule this game early to not give teams time to rest after the liberty game. It definitely is a trap game but I expect the team to be prepared.

Feels like a tough defensive battle with both teams in the 60's.
Look for the Miners to pull out another "V" with their inside game.

from Hollywood, should be a another exciting game.

It’s probably for logistical reasons. Last year UTEP played at FIU at 6pm local time.
These dudes are young fit athletes. You make it seem like it’s an age 50 years and older rec league tournament.
I’m just passing on what was said on the CUSA board. Im sure the guys will be fine but any extra rest does help.
The FIU crowd seemed a fair bit bigger for the NMSU game. I don't think these early games are good for bringing out the home crowd.
Easy solution would be to return to the old days without a 3-point line. However, that would most likely diminish fan interest as well.
Only count them the last 4 minutes of the half or something.
I especially hate shooting 3s on a fast break or taking an exceptionally long one with many seconds left on the shot clock.
