LAS CRUCES — Fellow independent football programs New Mexico State and Massachusetts end the year Saturday against each other in a matchup between two of the worst teams of the 2021 season.
But as Aggies grad transfer offensive lineman Eli Johnson says, there is still a lot to play for on Saturday despite the matching 1-10 records.
“You have two 1-10 programs with the loser debatably being the worst team in FBS — so in a lot of ways, who wins the football game will be the team that comes out and wants to play football more,” said Johnson, who is one of seven Aggies seniors playing their final game Saturday.
