New Mexico State Aggies vs. New Mexico Lobos Overview
Prior to last year, New Mexico had its way in this rivalry regardless of location of venue. However, some home cooking empowered the Aggies to take down their arch rival in an absolute classic where State would go to the front with a touchdown in the final stages of the fourth quarter. The Aggies closed as an 11-point dog. In 2017, the narrative surrounding this game is the revenge angle and the fact that the Lobos could avenge the shocking loss at home before their own contingent of fans. Overall, the Lobos have had more success in emphatic wins at University Stadium. In 2015, the Lobos won by a margin of nine. In 2013, the Lobos hung 66 points on their intrastate adversaries in a 49-point blowout win.
