UNM looks to be the odds on favorite to win conference

[Archaea]

the team is playing lights out and has a favorable schedule.

At first blush one might say oh but they must play in Provo, but that's after the Cougs play the Aztecs. And the Lobos have the easiest part of the schedule left. The Lobos thrashed the Rebels who manhandled the Cougs. I could see them winning both conference and the con tourney.
