Arizona hasn't had a very good season, and New Mexico has had a pretty good season. So why are the Wildcats favored by more than a touchdown?
The Arizona Wildcats are taking on the New Mexico Lobos in the New Mexico Bowl. The Wildcats struggled to win six games this year. But...Arizona is a fairly big favorite in this game. How is that possible? We dove into the numbers to sort it out.
84
Arizona is currently ranked 84th in the country in S&P+. That's not very good for an Arizona team that made the Fiesta Bowl and came into this season with relatively high expectations.
