West Texas Shootout (Erik Scheponik)
Not the line value there was earlier in the week, but definitely can see a shootout in tonight’s UTEP/NEW MEXICO ST. matchup. New Mexico St.’s defensive statistics are phony as can be, they gave up 34 to an offensively challenged New Mexico team, the only D1 team they’ve played. UTEP has too much speed on the offensive side of the ball, and will be focused off ugly loss in Albequerque. Hal Mumme will throw 55-60 times if need be, and as is usually the case when he plays big-name opponents expect some wild play calling and lots of risk taking which could lead to big plays or UTEP field position if the plays are unsuccessful. PLAY OVER in the matchup.
