Brown's drills jumper in final seconds, N. Mexico beats UTEP ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Elijah Brown's 17-foot jumper with 5.8 seconds left helped stave off a remarkable UTEP comeback and give New Mexico a 78-77 victory on Wednesday night. What appeared to be an easy win for New Mexico (6-3) after it grabbed a 27-6 lead in the opening 7:30 turned into a second-half scramble when the Miners began a 3-point barrage.
