ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- After five weeks of practice, after countless hours in the weight room, it's finally time for a football game. The New Mexico Lobos will open the 2017 season by hosting the Abilene Christian Wildcats of the Southland Conference at Dreamstyle Stadium at 6:06 p.m. on Saturday, September 2. The game will not be on television or streamed. The game will be available on 770 KKOB with a free audio stream via golobos.com and the Tune-In Radio App.
The Lobos are looking to open the season 1-0 for the third straight year, and it mark the first time that's happened since winning four in row from 1995-98.
