ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The New Mexico Lobo football team is bowl eligible for the first time since 2007.
Does that mean it will definitely play in a bowl game? If so, what game?
And is there really a chance it would play anywhere but in its home stadium?
“There’s a possibility they could be here,” said Jeff Siembieda, the executive director of the Gildan New Mexico Bowl. “They are attractive to us. We’ve had a lot of success in the first decade with programs that had not been in a bowl game for a while – a while being like five to 15 years.
