The University of New Mexico (4-4) comes up short as San Jose State (4-4) wins 31-21 in a battle of two running offenses.
San Jose State's second play of the game was an impressive 71 yard run by Tyler Ervin who ran up the middle of the New Mexico defense untouched. He would continue running on the Lobos all night long. The slim and quick do-all back would go off for 263 yards on 36 carries and the New Mexico defense, led by Kimmie Carson, never found a way to stop him.
Though they were up one point 14-7 in the second quarter, New Mexico's offense came to a screeching halt after the Spartans blocked a field goal attempt.
