O-line takes pride in Lobos’ gaudy rushing stats

Oregon Ducks, beware: The New Mexico Lobos are coming to get you.

Houston Cougars, the same.

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, look out.

Georgia Southern, don’t get too comfortable.

OK, wait a minute. Aren’t the Lobos playing Nevada this week? Yes, they are.

Are any of the above-mentioned schools on UNM’s 2015 football schedule? No, they’re not.

The Ducks, the Cougars and the Yellow Jackets are, however, the eighth-, seventh- and sixth-ranked teams nationally in rushing yards per game. Georgia Southern is the leader with an average of 377.4.

The Lobos, No. 9 this week with an average of 290, fully intend to move up.
