"We're Looking Pretty Good": Lobo Football Kicks Bronco Out of the Land of Enchantment

The University of New Mexico football team just sent a very clear message to their old coach: thanks for the breakup. In a performance that was equal parts dominant and delicious, the Turquoise-Laden Lobos pummeled Bronco Mendenhall's Utah State Aggies 33-14, putting on the best display yet of the Jason Eck era. Before a jubilant crowd, the Lobos didn't just win; they closed the book on the drama of Mendenhall's quick departure from Albuquerque with a decisive, three-phase victory.

Hosts Nick Nunez, Ed Nunez, and Greg Archuleta do a deep dive into the Lobo win over Utah State.

Forget perfection. For the New Mexico Lobo football team, "winning ugly" isn't just a phrase—it's quickly becoming their defining, albeit messy, strategy. Their recent 24-22 victory over Nevada was a microcosm of their season: a dramatic, error-filled battle where the beauty of the game was a beast they narrowly tamed. The Lobos lost the turnover battle, missed a field goal, racked up eight penalties, and even had a touchdown wiped out. And yet, they led wire-to-wire. As Eck himself put it, “It’s awesome when you can overcome things... We’re a tough-minded team. We battle and we compete, no matter what the situation.”
