Can't believe they publish such garbage

Bunk, just pure bunk I say.
No. 12 New Mexico State over No. 5 Clemson
If you look back at upsets from the last few tournaments, you'll find one common theme: The bracket busting teams are typically better at rebounding than their higher-seeded opponents. That will be the case when New Mexico State takes on Clemson. The Aggies grab offensive boards at a high rate and clean up the glass on the other end. They're going to win the rebounding battle and put up more shots than Clemson, which should negate the Tigers' shooting advantage. If New Mexico State can make some 3's and Clemson has a poor shooting night from the arc, the lower seed could win this one by double digits.

Ya a lot of insight in that article. If team x rebounds better and makes shots where team y misses shots then team x has a chance to win. Brilliant analysis.

Not the only one to think NM State will beat Clemson and make a good run. Have read several accounts.

For whatever insight this gives us into the writers' thoughts, NMSU was 1-1 against top 25 competition (St. Mary's and Miami).

Rebounding in the WAC May be slightly different than ACC***
