kitten New Mexico Game Thread

[SoCal Surfer]

Cats win 35-31.

 

[Montana37]

I mean they were 13.5 point favorites and the lobos literally let them win with two of the worst drops I’ve ever seen. Good for them tho lol

 

[3-7-77]

How could NM possibly lose this game?

 

[HookedonGriz]

Has a team ever done so much to lose a game, ever:

- missed FG
- missed FG
- dropped 3rd down catch
- dropped 3rd down catch
- give up a 90 yard rushing TD to get them in 3

It’s almost unbelievable if I didn’t see it

Congrats to state. Objectively good for the conference. Griz annihilate that team on Nov 23.

 

[Griz2k]

Wow, there is nothing I hate worse than a bobcat victory.

 

[cclarkblues]

Naw, I'm sure the cats will open up a can of hot jellied whup-ass midway through the 4 quarter...

Sometimes I hate being right. Sucks to be me...

I can’t believe the Bubs beat the mighty UNM Lobos! Couldn’t come close to covering -13.5, but, by God they pulled it out against a premier FBS team.

New Mexico snatching defeat from the Jaws of victory.

this ^^^ but good for the FCS and big sky conference & congrats to MSU on the win.

How many missed field goals? How many dropped passes on 3rd down? The lobos have to be the worst fbs team in the country. msu looked horrible to me but hung in there to the end. They play like that in conferences play and they will get torched!

I also hate it when the Shi##y Kitties win, but that was a gritty performance by Tommy and his offense, so good for them !!!

 

[Griz til I die]

UNM is in for a long year if they can’t perform the basic fundamentals of Football. That game was over on multiple different occasions and they absolutely pissed it away. Those might be 2 of the worst drops I’ve ever seen

 

[Da Boyz Mom]

And now you all know why I was never a Lobos fan when I lived there. Just pitiful.

I posted twice in different threads on here theat I thought the betting line was crazy. First games of a season are all about a lot of mistakes. The Cats came out and made a bunch of big mistakes in the first half and to begin the second. But they hung in and the Lobos made more mistakes. It was a gutsy win for the Cats. I predicted a close game and that is what it was.

Well that was fun! Not pretty, lots to clean up, but already beating the gris…1-0 baby, FBS win, leading the FCS!

 

[EverettGriz]

Man. new mexico is baaaaaaaaad. I said they'd finish 8th in the bsc. I waaaayyyyyy overestimated. No way they'd finish ahead of isu or psu.

 

[griz4life]

Woof. Those Lobos are terrible.

Yes. UNM is bad but the Cats made so many first game mistakes and made them look good in the first half. But, they came back and won. As you guys always say, a win is a win.

Congrats on beating the worst FBS team in the country. Such an achievement.

Indeed. And all credit to the bubs for that. But anyone who feels good about that win is keeeeeerazzzy.
