Here, we take a closer look at both teams in this New Mexico vs New Mexico State contest and make our pick in the betting markets for this one.

New Mexico Still Searching For First Win

Going into this weekend's New Mexico vs New Mexico State rivalry game, the New Mexico Lobos have a record of 0-4. They lost their season opener to FCS Montana State and have lost three straight games to FBS opponents since, including losses to Arizona and Auburn from power conferences. If New Mexico wants a shot to end their losing streak this week, they are going to need to show up on the defensive side of the ball. The Lobos have allowed 35 or more points in each of their first four games and they may continue to lose game after game if they can't find a way to secure some stops on a more consistent basis.

New Mexico State Mired In Losing Streak

The New Mexico State Aggies are 1-3 going into this week's college football action. They won their season opener against FCS Southeast Missouri State and have since lost all three of their games against FBS competition, including two straight losses to open Conference USA play. The offense of New Mexico State has really struggled of late, scoring just 11 points in their last two games combined. But they could benefit from playing against one of the worst defenses in college football to this point in the season at home.

New Mexico vs New Mexico State Best Bet

It is hard to justify backing either side to cover the spread in this New Mexico vs New Mexico State clash from Las Cruces. Instead, we will look at the total for this rivalry game. Given the issues that New Mexico has had on defense this year, the over is our top play for this game, as they should allow the Aggies to do some uncharacteristic scoring. Meanwhile, New Mexico's offense should be able to do plenty to contribute to the total as well against one of the worst teams in FBS football.
