Kansas State-New Mexico

Press Notes

After three games in five days to open the season, New
Mexico
gets to catch its breath before the next game
Tuesday against Kansas State.
New Mexico is 3-0 after big wins
over Abilene Christian, Sacramento State
and Colorado. The Lobos’ last 4-0
start was in 2004-05. UNM’s victory margin is 38
points following a resounding 106-65 triumph over Colorado.
New Mexico is 36-3 at home since
the 2004-05 season. It’s early, but Tuesday’s game certainly looks like a
conflict of styles. New Mexico is
among the nation’s leaders in scoring (96.3 ppg), scoring margin (+38.0), FG percentage (54.2%), 3-pointers (12.0 pg) and 3-point FG% (41.9%). Kansas
State
is allowing just 50.5 points
and 30% accuracy from the floor, 27% from 3-point. Not
surprising,
New Mexico has averaged 66.3 FG attempts
through the first three games compared to 50.5 in 30 games last year.
