Great article. Only problem is the headline. We are not "South Dakota." But whatever, I'm happy they won the damn game.

Re: New Mexico

Sounds like the Jacks are going to get some love during half-time of the Mizzou/Illinois game on ESPN2.

Re: New Mexico

70--65 SDSU, final.

Biggest win in program history. And that includes the D-II national championship.

Well in fairness to the 1963 guys, it was a different era. We are talking fifty years back. Yes this is the biggest win in the D-1 era. What about the Washington win? Thats was a big deal too? I guess they were not undefeated and were probably not ranked, but PAC 10 Champion, which is much better than Mountain West championship in terms of competition. Nagy said that the Lobos to him did not look better than Minnesota on tape.

The guys did make history today, that no one can deny.

Re: New Mexico

Not to plan too far ahead, how many Jack Fans would you expect to see in Fargo if the weather permits bus traffic? The bison will be in the early stages of a football meditation for a game in Texas. There should be seats available in the bsa.

Re: New Mexico

Does anybody know if the Jacks had fans/parents at this game?

I thought I saw somewhere that the local Alumni had an event before the game so I guess there were a couple of Jacks fans in attendance.

I would check with NDSU, the SDSU game is usually a good draw, with students on vacation there might be some seats available.

Re: New Mexico

The general admission looks open. The reserved seats are up high that are available. The size of the crowd will dictate how low you can go of course. The student section appears only as students.

Re: New Mexico

Great win today Jacks, never easy to go into The Pit and win and plus New Mexico has a very good team on top of it.

Re: New Mexico

Wow, what a win and what a weekend for SDSU (Georgetown and New Mexico). I could only discretely check the score on my phone because I was at the in-laws for a holiday gathering. I could not believe my eyes each time I checked in and saw that SDSU maintained the lead. Super impressive. This is definitely even bigger than the Washington win. NM already had a couple of nice wins to their credit and will probably keep them coming. I certainly have to give the guys credit for picking themselves up after Belmont and making a BIG statement. I did not see it coming and am thrilled.

Re: New Mexico

Also, ESPN finally discovers the real SDSU

I think we should have a one game playoff on a neutral floor with San Diego State University and the winner gets to use SDSU. Go Jacks

Re: New Mexico

Quote from Nagy about Nate: “He was saying things I’ve never seen him say before and that’s what we need from him. ... He was yelling at guys. He was telling guys to shoot the ball when they were open. ... He was yelling at me. He doesn’t normally do that stuff.”

Quote from Nate: "I honestly think we played pretty angry today,” said Nate Wolters, who finished with 28 points, seven assists and four rebounds. “We’ve been on the road for 10 days. ... Our practice yesterday got a little chippy, too."

There's been a lot of talk about lack of intensity. It sounds like Wolters found some today. Keep it up.

Thats a great statement......on the same weekend that the Jackrabbit women beat Georgetown the men beat NM. Clearly the win by the men over NM is more significant but name recognition of wins over Georgetown and New Mexico is huge. Have a very Merry Xmas Jacks fans.
