New Mexico vs. UNLV game preview: Lobos looking for revenge against the Rebels

One of the MWC's best basketball rivalries resume tonight at the Pit in Albuquerque. Can New Mexico (13-8, 6-2) avenge its January loss to UNLV (13-9, 4-5)?

The University of New Mexico is riding a three-game winning streak going into tonight's game against UNLV. Two of these three wins, against San Jose State and Air Force, have been in convincing fashion. The third victory came this past weekend against Boise State in Boise, another quality win.

The Lobos are closing the regular season in full stride and have looked better than they have all year. How are they doing it?
