LAS CRUCES, N.M. – First win of the Jerry Kill era: Check. First win over the University of Hawai'i: Check.
After three straight road games, NM State returned home to sunny Las Cruces and cruised to a 45-20 win over the Hawai'I Rainbow Warriors. The victory over Hawai'I snapped a ten-game losing streak and gave NM State their first ever win over the Rainbow Warriors.
"Hey, there's a party in Las Cruces, baby, and it starts at six o' clock. And I said, 'I don't know when it's gonna end. I don't really care right now," Kill joked.
