New Mexico is a team we have to find a way to beat. The Lobos are ranked in the bottom of the Group-of-Five. Lindy's has them ranked 12th in the Mountain West and they have not shown anything to dispute that.
The Minutemen have to play with intensity and smarts. One defensive mistake cost them the game last week at Eastern Michigan.
The weather is predicted to have showers. The offense needs to squeeze the ball and not have any turnovers. The Lobos probably do not have much experience in wet conditions and the Minutemen defense should be able generate some takeaways.
I'll be cheering for the Minutemen. Go UMass!
