New Mexico may not be facing in-state rival New Mexico State for rivalry week, but like any good college football rivalry, their fans have the Aggies top of mind. That was apparent today, after a rough gaffe by a referee during the Lobos' game against Utah State.
"Timeout, New Mexico State. Their first timeout. New Mexico, apologize," the referee said, as the loud boos came raining down. "I apologize, my bad."
He caught himself pretty quickly, but not quick enough to prevent the proud Lobos fans at University Stadium from letting him hear it.
Of course, things would be much different if that was the worst thing to happen to New Mexico football today.
