Chavez expected to start at QB Lobos vs. winless UNLV

University of New Mexico coach Danny Gonzales will usually try to find any type of motivation for his football team, even when it’s the Lobos’ homecoming game as a two-point favorite against winless UNLV.

“I promise you that New Mexico was one that they saw on their schedule that they can end their losing streak,” Gonzales said. “Our kids have heard that all week. This is a great opportunity to compete against a team I know that is going to be hungry for a win. They’ve had opportunities to win games.”

UNLV (0-8, 0-4 in Mountain West) has lost five games by one score this season.
