Pavia, New Mexico State keep Sam Houston winless in Las Cruces, 27-13

The New Mexico State Aggies are Wednesday night warriors.

In back-to-back weeks, Las Cruces, NM has served as a backdrop to Wednesday night CUSA matchups. After downing FIU last week at Aggie Memorial Stadium, New Mexico State repeated the favor as Sam Houston paid a visit to The Land of Enchantment.

Captained by a stellar dual-threat performance from quarterback Diego Pavia, New Mexico State flew past Sam Houston, 27-13. The Aggies pitched a first half shutout and generated all 27 points in the first and second quarters. That was enough to stave off the winless Bearkats, which were responsible for all 13 second half points.
