Week one of college football is in the books. What does it all mean for the Lobos and Aggies? Honest answer. I don’t know, and I don’t think anyone else knows either. UNM rolled over a horribly over matched Mississippi Valley State team 66-0, while New Mexico State got hammered 61-13 by the SEC’s Florida…… MORE
