New Mexico's name made it on the national radar screen in connection with the Motor City Bowl.
I don't know if it's driven by stories out of Albuquerque or people's inside information, but several newspapers, including the St. Paul Pioneer Press, are projecting the Lobos going to the Motor City Bowl.
At this point, I think it's just too murky to predict what will happen.
Fans will just have to sweat through the weekend and wait for word sometime between Sunday night and Monday afternoon.
I wrote a story on Tuesday talking about the teams vying for spots in the Motor City Bowl. The list includes Memphis, tough competition out of Conference USA.
