UNLV at New Mexico predictions
Las Vegas Review-Journal reporters and editors make their picks for the Rebels’ game at New Mexico on Saturday:
Ed Graney
UNLV beat writer/columnist (5-4)
New Mexico has one of the best defenses in the nation. The Lobos are legit. And until UNLV can stop the run, winning here will be extremely difficult.
New Mexico 28, UNLV 17
Donovan Hicks
UNLV backup writer (5-4)
The Rebels face a New Mexico program that ranks No. 1 nationally in both total defense and turnover margin through Week 10. For a UNLV offense that has struggled with consistency, that presents a difficult matchup. Coupled with the Lobos’ undefeated home record, this could be a rough trip.
New Mexico 38, UNLV 24
