02/22/2012 - Fort Collins, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dorian Green scored 17 points and Pierce Hornung finished with a double-double, as Colorado State knocked off No. 18 New Mexico, 71-63, at Moby Arena.
Hornung logged 13 points and 15 rebounds, while Wes Eikmeier added 11 points in Colorado State's second straight win.
The Rams (17-9, 6-5 MWC) improved to 13-1 at home and have an opportunity to make a case for NCAA Tournament consideration with matchups against nationally-ranked San Diego State and UNLV on the horizon.
New Mexico (22-5, 8-3) had won seven in a row to climb into the rankings for the first time since the end of the 2009-10 season, but a 37-percent shooting effort did in the Lobos on Tuesday.
Kendall Williams had a team-high 16 points, but shot just 3-of-13 from the field in defeat.
Colorado State, which lost by 33 in New Mexico on January 25, extended a two- point lead late in the contest by scoring on three straight touches, with Hornung's bucket resulting in a 60-52 lead with 3 1/2 minutes to play.
Drew Gordon converted a three-point play to keep New Mexico within two possessions, and it was still a five-point difference entering the final minute.
New Mexico's Jamal Fenton missed a rushed three-point try, and Green finished off a left-handed layup with 39 seconds on the clock.
A Williams three-pointer cut into the deficit, but the Rams made enough free throws down the stretch to secure the win.
A tight first half ended with Colorado State clinging to a 30-29 lead, and a 9-0 run by the Rams early in the second half was answered by six straight New Mexico points to keep it close.
Game Notes
New Mexico still holds a 1 1/2-game lead over UNLV and San Diego State atop the Mountain West Conference standings...Colorado State shot 20-of-23 from the foul line...Demetrius Walker and Gordon scored 14 and 13 points, respectively for the Lobos, who committed 17 turnovers.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
