ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The New Mexico Lobos are back home at University Stadium, opening up Mountain West play against an old rival, the UTEP Miners. The Lobos are looking for a 10th consecutive home win.

The Lobos and Miners will meet for the 81st time, with UNM holding a 44-33-3 series lead. The two teams last met in 2022, when the Lobos won 27-10. This is the first Mountain West meeting between the teams, as both were previously conference mates in the Border Conference (1935-61) and the WAC (1968-98).

The game kicks off at 2:05 p.m. Mountain Time, with coverage available on MW+ and the Lobo Radio Network. This is the first Lobo Football game to air exclusively on MW+.
