Home favorites off 37 point or more win are 578-436-22. Fresno is a potential BCS buster, so they certainly need to be in statement mode. New Mexico will be hampered a bit because of injuries that have sidelined QB Cole Gautsche and HB Kasey Carrier. together have accounted for almost 60 percent of the UNM offense this season are out.

Davie said backup linebackers David Orvick and Tevin Newman also will miss the final two games. Starting offensive right guard Jamal Price (shoulder) is questionable. Senior linebacker Rashad Rainey, who left the CSU game with an injury but returned, also is questionable.

Other Lobos, starting defensive ends Brett Bowers and Fatu Ulale among them, are banged up but probably will play. With their two best offensive players out, how can New Mexico compete? They will not.
