Game 2 - New Mexico hosts Mercyhurst on Saturday at 2 p.m. At University Stadium

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – New Mexico goes for a ninth straight home win on Saturday as UNM hosts Mercyhurst, a first-time FCS opponent from Erie, Pennsylvania. The Lobos will look to continue their hot start after a convincing 38-7 win over Central Michigan last Saturday. Mercyhurst is making a second straight trip to New Mexico, as the Lakers lost 51-14 to New Mexico State last week. The Lakers flew back to Erie after the game and return to the Land of Enchantment on Friday. 

The game is also the first football game for UNM on the new streaming service MW+.
