We should have had a perfect first day of article plays on the hardwood with Oregon, Nevada and Kansas all cashing, but the Wolfpack had an all-time choke job. Up 17 with seven minutes to go, the Pack let Dayton go on a 24-4 run to lose the game. That sucked but hey it's a new day and in my eyes that means something - we already got the worst beat of the tournament out of the way.

New Mexico vs. Clemson Prediction
To kick things off today, I want to head to the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee, as the 11-seeded New Mexico Lobos (26-9) clash with the six seed Clemson Tigers (21-11) in a west region clash. So far in the tournament, every eleven seed has won and the Lobos look to join in on the fun here. I love this spot for the Lobos who come in on a good run of form having taken down three tournament teams I their Mountain West Tournament run and I think they can carry the momentum into this one. They have dynamic guards in Jaelen House and Donavan Dent who will make them tough to guard and they defend the three point arc very well.
They have covered eight straight games at neutral sites, and six straight heading into this one. The Lobos are one of the fastest teams in the country and will set the pace and score here. I like the squad from New Mexico to join the eleven seed party in the second round.
