Lobos Roll All Over Mississippi Valley State 66-0
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- The University of New Mexico got a school-record tying eight rushing touchdowns and UNM's defense allowed fewer than 100 yards and recorded its first shutout since 2008 as the Lobos opened the season with a 66-0 win over Mississippi Valley State of the FCS.
The win was the largest shutout victory in 65 years, and the largest margin of victory in 55 years. The Lobos rolled up 511 yards while allowing just 74. The game actually opened up with the Delta Devils holding UNM to a three-and-out, forcing a punt.
