New Mexico is one of the fastest and most efficient teams in the country with 76.3 possessions per game which is top-6 in the country and are also top-50 in effective possessions. SDSU is the complete opposite. They are on the slower side at 68.8 possessions per game and sit below the top 100 in effective possessions.
With effective possessions in mind, the scoring margin between the two also indicates that New Mexico should have no issues on the road. They are a top-20 offense in the country averaging 83 ppg while San Diego State averages 11.7 points less per contest at 71.3 ppg.
Aside from scoring and margins, New Mexico is also flying ahead of them in shooting percentage, rebounds, assists and steals. That said, bettors should be all over the plus money on CBB sportsbooks for New Mexico.
