The Lobos and Broncos will battle Wednesday in a pivotal Mountain West Conference game.
The New Mexico Lobos enter Wednesdays evening's game against Boise State knowing that they have almost no chance of catching the league leaders San Diego State but that does not mean that they do not have anything to play for the rest of the season.
New Mexico sits in second place but is just one game ahead of the fifth place Nevada Wolf Pack with Boise just one game behind the Lobos so a win for them would great a tie for second.
