UNLV at New Mexico

The wheels have come off the season for the New Mexico Lobos. After a promising 3-2 start, the Lobos have not won since September. Five straight losses have left this team out of the Bowl picture at 3-7 on the season. That last win produced 56 points vs. Air Force, but the offense has not even produced 56 points since, and has averaged a woeful 10.2 points per game. If that isn't problematic enough, New Mexico has not defended anyone. The Lobos are allowing 38.3 ppg in their last six, and are losing those games by an average of 22.5 ppg. With a win in this contest UNLV could move to 5-6, and will play their finale vs. rival Nevada for Bowl eligibility. The Rebels have tightened up the "D" over their last three games, allowing 23.3 ppg, compared to 38.8 ppg in their previous five. They will be a live dog for this one, so play on UNLV.
