Underdog status doesn’t dampen 2-6 Lobos’ spirits heading into Utah State
Rain is forecast for Saturday in Logan, Utah. Because University of New Mexico quarterback Justin Holaday is an inland central California kid with little if any experience playing in the wet stuff, Lobos coach Danny Gonzales has taken measures.
In practices this week, Gonzales has been spraying Holaday with a water bottle as he executed plays. He’s had him throw water-soaked footballs. How effective those measures will prove remains unknown as of this writing.
Also unknown: whether Gonzales, Holaday and the Lobos can pierce the storm clouds gathered over their 2022 season by upsetting the Utah State Aggies at Maverik Stadium.
