ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The Lobos are 8-1 overall, 5-0 in the Mountain West, and they will look to make some history on Saturday as UNM hosts UNLV in what should be the largest crowd of the season. Game time is at 5:30 pm, and the game will be broadcast on The CW. The No. 23/25 Lobos won 31-3 last week on the road against Nevada in UNM's first game as an AP-ranked team.

Jack McMullen and Cody Kessler, along with Marshall Newhouse, will have the call for The CW, and Robert Portnoy and DonTrell Moore will call on the Lobo Radio Network.

The Lobos are trying to tie a few records with some streaks on the line. The Lobos have won 11 straight games at University Stadium, one short of the school record of 12, set in 1928. UNM is also looking for just its second seven-game winning streak in school history, following a wrap-around streak from the end of the 1996 season to the 6-0 start of the 1997 season.

The Lobos are also looking for a 12th straight conference win.

The game is a flip-flop from last year, when the Lobos were 5-3 and needed a win for bowl eligibility. This time it's UNLV one win short at 5-4. The Rebels are coming off a 41-35 home loss to Wyoming, falling short on a wild comeback from down 41-21 late in the third and throwing an interception in the end zone in the final two minutes.

The Lobos lead the nation in scoring defense (10.9), interceptions (17), total defense (240.1), and turnover margin (+2.00).
