In a contest finally announced as head coach Doug Martin’s last at New Mexico State, the Aggies offense showed up guns blazing.
Junior Quarterback Jonah Johnson completed 26-of-32 passes for a career-best 420 yards while freshman Juwan Price rushed for 156 yards and four scores to send their coach off in style with a 44-27 victory over Massachusetts in front of 6,632 in an afternoon kickoff Saturday at Aggie Memorial.
The win snapped a seven-game losing streak for NMSU (2-10) in a battle of one-win teams. UMass (1-11) saw its loss streak grow to six heading into the offseason.
