The Owls have been dominant in CUSA this season, but they will be on the road here. New Mexico State has lost three games in a row and they have scored just 33 points in their last two. The Aggies do play their best football at home, where they are 3-1, with the lone loss coming in overtime. Kennesaw State is the much better team, but they haven’t been on the road very much recently and New Mexico State is definitely a solid home team. Take the Aggies and the points here.Â
