Football: Fresno State’s defense stonewalls UNM in 38-7 victory

Editor's Note: This article originally reported the Lobos were penalized nine times for 125 yards although the official box score recorded eight accepted penalties against UNM for 110 yards. The Daily Lobo apologizes for the error.

The University of New Mexico football team was beaten, battered and bruised in a 38-7 thumping by the Fresno State Bulldogs on Saturday evening at Dreamstyle Stadium.

In head coach Bob Davie’s assessment, it was a product of an “unpolished” offense and a culmination of unnecessary penalties.

Eight Lobo penalties — which accounted for 110 yards — didn’t help out much either, as Davie pointed out in the press conference after the game.
