University of New Mexico senior quarterback Terry Wilson, who threw for a career-high 381 yards on 26-of-37 passing with three touchdowns and no interceptions, was named Mountain West Offensive Player of the Week, the league announced on Monday.
Wilson, a transfer from Kentucky, led the Lobos past rival New Mexico State on Saturday and helped make them 2-0 for the first time since 2005. Their four-game winning streak that dates to last season is the longest win streak since they won five straight in 2016.
Wilson’s passing yardage is 13th in the UNM history record books for most passing yards in a game and the most for the Lobos since 2003.
