In their charcoal uniforms, the UNLV Rebels took on the New Mexico Lobos on Friday Sept. 30th. This was their first in-conference home game of the season and it did not disappoint. Some people might say it was a “tale of two-halves”
The game started off slow for the Rebels as they gave up two TDs and a field goal before they could put up any boys. They saw themselves down 17-0 with 13:29 left in the first half.
The Rebels first points came from a field goal that capped off a 10-play 52-yard drive. The next New Mexico drive the Rebel defense stepped up and picked off Lobo QB Miles Kendrick.
