Herm Edwards once said, "You play to win the game." True words indeed as they do keep score during NCAA football games. New Mexico is coming off a 31-28 win at UNLV. It's only their third win of the season but you can see what head Coach Bob Davie is talking about. An identity through the triple-option offense. Signs of life on defense and a clutch final offensive possession of the game in which a redshirt freshman quarterback, Lamar Jordan, helped lead the team to the go-ahead score. It doesn't get any easier with the top three teams in the Mountain West ahead on the schedule, beginning with Boise State this weekend. The overall record won't look good once again but the Lobos are passing the eye test. That will get them by this season but the eye test will soon need to turn into the scoreboard test, wins.
