How does it feel to lose to the Aggies? It’s painful, as two Lobo staffers know

Not a single player on the 2022 University of New Mexico football roster has played in a loss to New Mexico State.

Dante Caro and Jake Rothschiller, who’ve had that experience, absolutely do not recommend it.

And they’re highly motivated to help prevent another NMSU victory on Saturday.

Rothschiller, UNM’s linebackers coach, played for the Lobos from 2014-17. He experienced losses to the Aggies in 2016 and 2017.

Caro, a Lobo defensive back from 2010-13, is now a UNM defensive graduate assistant. New Mexico State beat the Lobos in 2010 and 2011. Caro is from Las Cruces and was recruited by his hometown school but chose UNM instead.
