NCAA bracket predictions: New Mexico has shown that it is comfortable in a fast-paced game or in a half-court contest. Washington has to have a fast pace if it is to win again. The Lobos had problems with Montana's height in the first round but that won't be a problem in this one. As with New Mexico, Washington is a bit undersized but makes up for it by crashing the boards. New Mexico star swingman Daringrton Hobson injured his hand in the first round. If he's not 100 percent, the Lobos will be in trouble. New Mexico is the best bet in this game ATS +3.
