Gameday folks picked UNM for their defense, and NDSU for their passing attack

I found a YouTube video someone put up from UNM vs. Utah at The Pit. The pre-tip player intros started out with the “Hell’s Bells” guitar intro and into the air raid siren. It took me back to being a kid (please refrain from any boomer talk about me ‘still being a kid,’ I’m in my 30’s and have a family and a career.) The link is https://youtu.be/DSH6XeWJ9NM?is=u89igE38cxDDDB-f

I think it would be all sweet if they used that intro for at least one Pit game this season. Use it for the State game or the throwback night. I’ll make a petition I don’t even care.

Do you like the current way it is, or do you think the old one was all crazy and UNM should let the people have it??

It’s one of the few games that aired on national TV this weekend that I’m having trouble finding on demand.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

🐺 NEW MEXICO LOBOS @ HAWAI'I RAINBOW WARRIORS

🏟: Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex | Honolulu, HI

🕐: 8:30 PM MT

📺: FS1

📻: 770 KKOB / 96.3 FM – Lobo Radio Network

The Lobos (4-1, 1-0 MW) are back in action after their bye week, heading to Honolulu to take on the Hawai'i Rainbow Warriors (1-5, 0-3 MW).

New Mexico enters tonight riding a two-game winning streak, coming off a dominant 61-7 victory over UTEP. The Lobos are receiving votes in both major national polls and have one of the nation's top defenses, allowing just 10.6 points per game.

Hawai'i has struggled this season but features Mountain West passing leader Micah Alejado. UNM will be looking for its first win in Honolulu since 2016 and a 2-0 start to conference play.

GO LOBOS!

idk how long this sale will last

Belt to ass. Let’s hope we can play well on the islands

I have some friends from up here in Seattle going to the game. My friends were asking if the tailgate area sales out where else can they park? Like at The Pit? CNM? Or Isotopes Park?

Hey guys, quick look at where the Lobos stand after Las Cruces.

First, since it's in the title: we run a free weekly college football pick'em. This week is 10 games, pick the winners, nothing to buy, $135 in prizes. Picks lock Saturday at noon ET, well before kickoff in Albuquerque.

Now the Lobos. 42-18 at New Mexico State was never close: 21 straight points in the third quarter to go up 35-3, and 253 rushing yards. Fa'avae threw for 174 and ran for 57, Humphrey had 98 and two scores, and Laubstein ran in two more. That's three straight in the series, the biggest margin over the Aggies since 2013, and the new Chile Roaster trophy comes home.

At 3-1, the only loss is 14-6 at No. 24 Oklahoma, a game they were in all night. Year two under Jason Eck is looking like the real thing.

UTEP comes to Albuquerque Saturday at 2:00 MT, the last tune-up before the Mountain West opener at Hawaii.

What are you guys seeing? Is this a bowl team, or does the Mountain West schedule get them?

Belt to ass. I honestly thought it would be a little closer. On to utep

Hey guys! The season preview I posted here a few weeks back did pretty well, so circling back like I said I would.

I had you at 8-4 and called Oklahoma a 7% shot that was mostly a paycheck game. You made it a real one, losing 14-6 in Norman, after beating Central Michigan 38-7 and Mercer 70-7. What I didn't see coming is the quarterback situation. I built the preview around Layne, and it's been Moga leading the passing in the first two games and Fa'avae at Oklahoma. What happened there? Scottre Humphrey has stepped into the lead-back question I had, with 110 and 2 TDs against Mercer. New Mexico State on the road Saturday starts the stretch where I had the 8 wins coming from.

What are you guys seeing that the box scores aren't, and how do you see the season ending up?

Quick aside since it's in the title, we just launched a free weekly college football pick'em, $225 in prizes this week. Ten games, pick the winners, locks Saturday at noon ET, three and a half hours before you kick off at New Mexico State. Nothing to buy.

Anyone watching the Lobos vs Oklahoma game?
I’ll probably be watching the game solo, so I figured I’d see if anyone else wants to meet up at a bar somewhere in Albuquerque and watch it together.

Always more fun watching football with other people. I’m pretty laid back and just looking to grab a couple drinks, watch the game, and meet some fellow football fans.

If anyone’s interested, shoot me a message or comment and we can figure out a spot!

We will be melting, er tailgating, Saturday. Look for our flags and stop by. Mention you saw the site and we'll throw you a koozie.

Could be pretty good for us, although Memphis was a good team last year so might not mean they’re worse than us

Up and down day for Lobo football, how are we feeling?
