THE OFFICIAL RUTGERS-NEW MEXICO PREDICTION THREAD
- Thread starter bac2therac
- Start date
NM gets a few TDs to start, then gets bottled up and knocks in a few FGs in the second half. Rutgers is able to move the ball on the ground all day, racking up over 300 rushing yards.

Rutgers hackers enter New Mexico State computer and drain the prep info for their victory over the Mighty Lobos. They find secret to recruiting outstanding pass rushers who crushed the NM QB. They love a governor who loves pot.
Are people overhyping NM for a reason? They have looked awful in their first two games... RU 43-10 them

Um what games did you watch? I watched their entire game against NMSU and they blew at double digit lead in the 4th. Their defense is not great but their running attack is lethal with some tremendous athletes. I honestly think we lose unfortunately
If our D looks like it did in the first 2 games starting this game, we could run into problems...but, I believe Ash takes care of the slow starts and really schools our guys on keeping the edge.

I think we beat the Lobos but don't cover the spread. My revised predictions for the remainder of the season are:
New Mexico W 35-31
Iowa L 24-35
@Ohio St L 14-43
Michigan L 21-37
Illinois W 32-26
@Minnesota L 30-33
Indiana W 38-35
@Mich St L 20-35
Penn St W 32-29
@Maryland W 34-32
So far we haven't shown any improvement over what the computers predict but I'm still hopeful that we improve as the season progresses and that we finish strong and get to 6-6.

Rutgers could easily lose this game because of the difficulty in stopping the triple option used by service academies.The home field advantage will be the difference in this game.Hope the weather is cooler than the Howard game.

It says here (in my paper from the future), that RU wins: 48 -25. Grant Runs back a Punt for a TD, Scores on Wildcat / a catch in the end zone...and passes for a TD to Harris as well!
Hicks / Martin run for over 250 yards....Sneed with a TD scamper in 4th qtr.
Oden runs / passes ...and passes the eye test.
Laviano moved to blocking TE.

With Laviano as starter, we get behind early. By the time Ash pulls him and puts Gio in it could be too late, unless Gio has a magic arm. I hope he can pass as well as he runs. That would be a great way to begin the GR era. Go Gio.

UNM can run for a few zillion yards, but I don't think the Lobos can stop anybody. The trick is we can't stop ourselves. If we don't, we'll win.

This is a simple question, as it purely comes down to defense. The Lobos can't seem to play any when it matters. They just lost a close rivalry game, so they should be playing with fire shooting out of their asses, so we will see how the Lobos respond. The coaches need to call a better game as well.
The loss of Cox and Gipson is huge, so I'm predicting a Lobos loss. I hope they prove me wrong and somebody steps up to fill the gaps.

We will be in section 106 and hope to tailgate with the RU fans a bit before the game.
