New Mexico State opens its season tonight in the Preseason NIT. The Aggies, under the direction of first-year head coach Reggie Theus, travel to UCLA for a game that will be shown on ESPN2. If the Aggies win, they would face the winner of the Army-Temple game on Nov. 17 at a site to be determined. The winner of that game would advance to the semifinals at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 23. New Mexico State begins its first season in the WAC. The Aggies were 6-24 last year while competing in the Sun Belt Conference. Last year, former WAC member Tulsa played in the Preseason NIT and lost its opening round game at home against Wright State, 72-66, in overtime.
