UNLV keeps bowl hopes alive with emotional 38-35 win over New Mexico

In his first full game since Oct. 14, freshman quarterback Armani Rogers was able to lead the Rebels past six lead changes to take down the New Mexico Lobos 38-35 Saturday night.

Rogers was given the start after senior quarterback Johnny Stanton went 2-1 in his three starts.

With a full game under his belt, Rogers accounted for 404 total yards with 193 coming on the ground, which is a school record. His previous season high was 148 rushing yards at Air Force.

He also found the end zone on the ground and once through the air.
