On paper, No. 19 Washington State would seem to have an enormous advantage over New Mexico on Saturday. The Cougars (8-1, No. 18 CFP) are looking to sweep their final three games and perhaps enter the discussions for a spot in the 12-team playoffs. Washington State has won four straight games.

But the Lobos , after opening the season 0-4 under new coach Bronco Mendenhall, have gone 4-2 for an outside shot at bowl eligibility for the first time since 2016. New Mexico is looking for that keystone win that could pave the path to respectability. The Cougars are allowing 27 points a game, checking in at 88th, while New Mexico is allowing 38.3 points a game, 130th among the 133 total teams.Even for teams without defensive issues, Washington State presents a difficult task because of quarterback John Mateer.
New Mexico has its own playmaker under center in Devon Dampier, who ranks just behind Mateer in total offense at 329.1 yards per game to 329.0.
