Game 4: The Pit, New Mexico leads 2-1.

In game 4 the script is reversed, as BYU gets incredibly hot from behind the arc and will return to Utah with the series tied.

Game 5: Marriott Center, Series tied 2-2.

BYU can’t complete the comeback as they only make a single jumper in the final 4:00 of regulation. Can New Mexico close out the series at home?

Game 6: The Pit, New Mexico leads 3-2.

BYU comes through and takes game 6 on the road. Will they be able to defend their home court? 

Game 7: Marriott Center, Series tied 3-3.

Color me surprised. Given the flow of the series I thought New Mexico was going to take it, but BYU pulled through in front of their home fans. They now get to face the #1 overall seed, 2011 San Diego State.
