I'll wait until closer to kickoff for my prediction. My heart wants me to give the Lobos a slight edge but my head is telling me we might not beat the spread. I'll get back to you!

Lobos 17
* BSO 0
* BSO = Baby Poop Orange

Sorry but have to be honest on this one..
UT: 52
UNM: 24
Will be closer than the score..
Horns 38
Lobos 23
UT 42 - UNM 24
UT 45 Lobos 20
Good effort by the Lobos though and very respectible given where we have been last serveral years.
Texas 31
Lobos 17
17- 16 Lobos.
My prediction doesn't count.
#UNMerciful
I love the Kool-aid, and it sure does taste good, but we all know where we have been, and how far the climb up will be... don't get to carried away with a big win against a horrid team. Not trying to diminish our play, we are already on the way up. Still Texas is Texas, as much as a hate them, but i think in the end we are going to leave Darrel K. Memorial with texas fans saying, "this team has some heart and fight, and if they keep this up we might be trying to get them in our conference.
Texas- 49
Lobos- 28
They pull away at the end, but we don't give up. Go Lobos!
"THE" UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO
WELCOME TO THE LAND OF ENCHANTMENT...WHERE nmsu SUCKS!!!
Lobos - 13
LawnWhores - 41
Horns 52
Lobos 34
Eh, I'll go way out on a limb and stick with my pick from a month ago.
NM 27
TX 23

41-19 Horns.
42-21 Texas

32-17 Longhorns
I think the Lobos easily cover the 36.5 and or 41 point spreads. The Lobos lose by less than 3 touchdowns, which imho is pretty damn impressive.
Texas 41
UNM 21
Lobos 13
Cows 31

45-24 Texas
31-28 Lobos
37 UT
27 NM

Hang tough for three quarters and get worn down, Lobos play tough throughout but the gap in talent, preparation (same system at UT now for decades vs one offseason at UNM), and sheer number of bodies is just too much right now.
UT (old alma mater btw - grad school - does that count?) - 45
UNM (only team I ever root for even while at UT) - 10

Lobos 2
Everything that's wrong with college football 0
That's the score of a forfeit.
Do I think the Lobos will win? No.
Do I want the Lobos to win? As much as it would send shockwaves throughout college football... hell yes.
Do I blame this week's opponent for the movement in college conferences? Unequivocally.
Greedy b#st#rds...
