Projection: first four out
New Mexico’s résumé looks like a classic borderline case because it pairs a neutral-site scalp of Mississippi State and a tough road win at VCU with a collection of damaging conference losses at places such as Utah State, Boise State and Colorado State. The Lobos have proved they can win away from home and pick off notable opponents on neutral floors while also accumulating results that will be viewed as blemishes, so the remaining neutral-site meeting with San Diego State is the obvious last chance to flip a fragile case into a safe one.
