Randy’s Pick

The New Mexico Lobos have been outmatched against every good team they’ve played this season. New Mexico is one of the worst defensive teams in the country, ranked 106th in total defense and 114th in scoring defense. UNLV is enjoying its best season in well over a decade, and its top-20 rushing attack should feast in this contest. New Mexico doesn’t have the horses to keep up. Give me UNLV in a double-digit road victory.
