Lobos vs. Iona Preview

After taking care of Texas-San Antonio, then downing San Francisco, the New Mexico Lobos will be putting their undefeated, 10-0, record on the line when they host the Iona Gaels on Sunday evening in a nationally televised contest at The Pit.

Sunday’s contest will be a special one for Lobo fans and for Lobo head coach Richard Pitino as he goes up against his dad, Rick, who is the head coach of Iona.

In the lead up to the game, the University of New Mexico has said that it has sold over 13,000 tickets for the game, with a solid walk-up crowd to hopefully make it a sellout.
