Moby Arena figures to be an unfriendly destination for the University of New Mexico women’s basketball team Saturday.
Colorado State’s home court has never been particularly hospitable to the Lobos, who are 12-23 in Fort Collins overall and 2-7 in their last nine visits. They can’t expect a warm reception Saturday.
The Rams (11-3, 2-2 Mountain West) undoubtedly have been looking forward to this matchup since last March, when the Lobos swept a pair of games from them in Albuquerque to pull a regular-season conference title from their grasp. Recent developments have only added fuel to the motivational fire.
