Live scores, highlights and updates from the New Mexico vs. Hawaii football game
The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors will head out on the road to face off against the New Mexico Lobos at 6:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at University Stadium. Hawaii is hoping to put an end to a nine-game streak of away losses dating back to last season.
Hawaii traveled a rocky road last season, and unfortunately for them the road hasn't gotten any smoother. They fell 41-34 to San Diego State on Saturday. Despite 102 more yards than San Diego State, Hawaii couldn't convert that extra yardage to scores.
Brayden Schager put forth a good effort for the losing side as he threw for 427 yards and three touchdowns. Nick Cenacle also helped out as he racked up 100 receiving yards.
Even though they lost, the Rainbow Warriors dominated in the air and finished the game with 427 passing yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as San Diego State only passed for 221.
Meanwhile, New Mexico managed to keep up with San Jose State until halftime on Saturday, but things quickly went downhill from there. New Mexico was completely outmatched by San Jose State at home and fell 52-24. New Mexico was down 38-17 at the end of the third quarter, and things only got worse from there.
The match pitted two dominant backs against one another in Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Kairee Robinson. Robinson had a great game and gained 189 total yards and four touchdowns. Meanwhile, Croskey-Merritt did his best for the losing side, rushing for 68 yards and two touchdowns.
The losses dropped Hawaii to 2-6 and New Mexico to 3-4.
In addition to losing their last games, the two teams failed to cover the spread. Looking forward, Hawaii is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by two points. This contest will be New Mexico's fifth straight as the underdogs (so far over this stretch they are 3-1 against the spread).
