The season may not have been what Aggie fans thought, or hoped, it would be. But a 44-35 win against a rival always makes things a little easier to bear.
With the win, NM State has now defeated UTEP for the third straight year. That’s the longest win streak for the Aggies in the series since 1992-1995.
The Aggies were able to win thanks to Martin opening up the playbook and calling runs, something that the entire fan base has been clamoring for all year.
Jason Huntley has reaped the benefits to Martin’s change in play calling, rushing for a career high for the second straight week, totaling 193 yards and three touchdowns.
