“Being ranked this week means nothing if you lose this week and get kicked out of the ranking. So we gotta take care of our business and have great preparation to go play our best football.”
Safety Tavian Combs called the attention "rat poison" and said "humility is only a week away." The Lobos lead the Mountain West, and their defense leads the FBS in multiple categories.
