I was wrong ...
So, I predicted the Lobos would lose something like 38-21 to Missouri.
And, as we all know, I couldn't have been more wrong.
In my defense, the Lobos didn't look so good the final three quarters against UNLV and have never fared well against BCS teams on the road. I knew they could win, I just thought Missouri was a little too loaded and the crowd too imposing.
But the Lobos obviously stepped up.
I think this was a huge Lobo win for all kinds of reasons. Here's a few:
-- They finally beat a BCS team on the road for the first time in school history.
-- They finally picked up a major non-conference road win, the first during Rocky's tenure
-- The offense scored 45 points. Hello, 45 points. This not Dan Dodd's score just enough points to win offense anymore. It's fun, innovative and exciting to watch.
-- Above all, they didn't give up when their backs were against the wall. They made big plays to win the game, which was something you just couldn't count on before.
