Boise State vs. New Mexico final score: Brett Rypien throws 5 TD passes in win

This game between New Mexico and Boise State had plenty of hype behind it since the Lobos have given the Broncos trouble in three of the past four years and then winning on the Blue Turf in 2015.

The 2016 game was more of the 2011 game which saw Boise State rock New Mexico, 45-0. Brett Rypien had a game for the ages by completing 21 of 28 passes for 391 yards and five touchdowns. He also averaged 14 yards per pass attempt.

Two receivers had big games with both Thomas Sperbeck and Cedric Wilson had over 150 yards each with 198 yards for the former and 167 for the latter.
