Meanwhile, UNLV can now show off three landslide victories after their most recent match on Saturday. They put a hurting on New Mexico on the road to the tune of 56-14. The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as UNLV just coasted through the last quarter.
UNLV's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Jayden Maiava led the charge by throwing for 247 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.2% of his passes. Ricky White did his part to keep the secondary busy, picking up 165 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

For those looking to play the spread, keep UNLV in mind: they have a solid 8-1 record against the spread this season.
