What to Know

The Wyoming Cowboys will be playing at home against the New Mexico Lobos at 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Jonah Field at War Memorial Stadium. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.

Wyoming was not the first on the board last Saturday, but they got there more often. They skirted past App. State 22-19. The overall outcome was as expected, but App. State made it much more of a match than the oddsmakers had predicted.

Harrison Waylee continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 156 yards and a touchdown. Waylee was also active on the ground: one of his best plays was a 75 yard sprint for a TD in the fourth quarter.

Meanwhile, it may have taken the full four quarters to finish the job, but New Mexico ultimately got the result they hoped for on Saturday. They had just enough and edged UMass out 34-31. The squad ran away with 28 points in the first half and mostly just sat on those to pick up the victory.

Their wins bumped Wyoming to 3-1 and New Mexico to 2-2.

Looking ahead, Wyoming is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 14 points.

Here's a few offensive stats to keep an eye on ahead of Saturday's game: The Cowboys have been unstoppable on the ground this season, having averaged 168.2 rushing yards per game. However, it's not like the Lobos struggle in that department as they've been averaging 169.2 per game. Given each team's dominance, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
