The final six regular-season games for the University of New Mexico men’s basketball team will be played in Colorado, including two designated home games against the Wyoming Cowboys, which will now be played at the U.S. Air Force Academy outside of Colorado Springs.
The move appears to close the door on the possibility of any men’s game being played in the Pit this season the first season that has happened since the venue opened in 1966 and the first time in program history that the Lobos fielded a team but did not play at least one game in the state.
