New Mexico UPSETS #18 Washington State and fans gather on the field

[@zonaapatty]

rushing the feild was so calm it got called a gathering😭

give them a break they dont rush the field often

[@TrojanManXLT]

"gather on the field" lol

[@K.Dwizzle]

“Gently congregate”

[@tperk]

Seemingly a peaceful meeting of like-minded individuals. I suppose they served tea and crumpets while seated at midfield.

[@ikeepmoving]

@@tperklol

[@JoeVideoed]

@@tperk I'm surprised there were enough to even gather. Stadium was far from full, but then again NM has been so down for so long it doesn't surprise me.

[@dentonyoung4314]

Congratulation to UNM. If they beat Hawaii and make a bowl game it will have been an amazing season for them.

[@DJK-cq2uy]

😂😂😂😂 😂This game was a fix...these lisers couldn't beat a really good hs team..get serious

[@c_coppinger238]

Lobo fan here. It has been a long time, and this was just an awesome game. I know everyone is clowing our crowd. If you knew the misery we have been through, you might understand why it's hard for fans to buy a ticket. But listen to that crowd pop after the last touchdown. We know we are some of the loudest fans in the nation, and if the stadium ever fills up, it's going to be a great home field advantage. We are hoping Bronco turns us into a perennial winner.

[@ikeepmoving]

Go get yours, Lobo! 🎉

[@itisMrTomCat]

coug fan here great game guys. Unfortunately our college playoffs chances are shattered. You're QB is a beast and hes just a sophomore. Praying he doesn't hit the transfer portal.

[@mattreedah]

Gotta get more people to the home games!

[@21cbutler]

Nice game Lobos! I kinda root for some of the original Mtn. West teams from 99. I've been to plenty of Lobo games hosted by BYU. Good for you guys! Dampier is so fun to watch and that was a fun last game of the night to enjoy! I've watched a few games of yours now this season. Also, I root for Bronco. I hope you guys win out and have a bowl victory too!

[@DJK-cq2uy]

Losers..fixed game...Hobis?? Pfffft hmmmmph

[@kenji9337]

I work for the team. And these guys are so hard working and love the team and the game. Dev is also so humble and kind. When everyone else went inside to celebrate in the locker room, he stayed on the field to sign autographs with kids. Truly an upstanding individual

[@DJK-cq2uy]

Inferior clowns 🤡 🤣 with no business having a fb team

New Mexico's helmets are awesome

[@crimdell]

It looks like a lecherous lobo.

Where are my New Mexico natives at!!! Let's Go!!!🔥🔥🔥💯

[@KennethDurham-e5q]

Been here all the time. Almost brought tears to my eyes. Been the Bad News Lobos too long.

[@YaowBucketHEAD]

I'm a Lobo fan in SEC country and I was genuinely surprised. Especially after that loss to Wyoming. Let's hope that Dampier and Meddenhall don't bolt so quick.

[@soulknife20]

I graduated from UNM. Twice. I don't think I've ever seen them beat a ranked opponent

[@roddaman7545]

I remember jumping ‘gathering’ on the field when UNM beat a ranked San Jose State team (I think) back in the early 90’s. Been waiting for good news ever since then.

[@whenyoucloseyoureyes]

Not a true born-and-raised native, but 14-year state resident and UNM alum. This is great to see.

[@drewsmith4452]

I’m a Utah State fan, but I’m so freaking happy for New Mexico. That program has been through so much over the years. Good to see them have some success. Wish y’all were coming to the Pac-12 with us. Bronco Mendenhall is such a great coach.

[@whenyoucloseyoureyes]

Thanks for assembling and posting this. I'm a Lobo who was at this field for a few of those 2003 wins, so this is so great to see -- all of it. This coach and staff are great and I hope if a bunch of guys take off after this year, I'm confident they'll recruit some solid replacements. #EveryonesAloboWoofWoofWoof

[@Micheal1210TV]

Good to be a New Mexico Native this week/weekend

[@DJK-cq2uy]

#1 UNM football 1 being how many games these bozos legitimately won...good grief..losers

[@cocinerotravieso]

I'm very happy for Bronco Mendenhall. I'm a BYU fan and he gave us a lot of good memories. I hope he and the Lobos continue to win!

[@ggbsports]

Bronco is such a good coach it’s insane

[@davidfarr9678]

No doubt. Him and dampier together is lethal

[@00F]

Mountain West shows ferocity against the PAC-2

[@arredoa1]

Yup; I love it when the teams that were not good enough for either the Beavs or Wazzu beat them like a drum...

[@GO-kg2dw]

@@arredoa1 beat them like a drum? it was a close game lol

[@poco1174]

It is correct to honor Bronco. He simply outcoached the other team. They ran all over Wazzu. As a Coug, I couldn’t believe what I was watching. Well deserved Lobos.

[@paulready8897]

Congrats to the Lobos. Their uniforms look a lot different than when I was in NM.

[@andrewpiegzik4121]

UNM can't really attract enough of a crowd to storm the field, so "gather" is incredibly appropriate.

[@Doesntmattertoyou-re3ts]

It’s a Basketball school and a history of a poor football program. Give them a break

[@austindixon7882]

inexcusable for WSU coach to not use any timeouts to preserve time if they got the ball back... some of these coaches are so incompetent when it comes to timeout usage

[@joeykelly5642]

And the crowd goes mild!

[@taylorh1246]

haha

[@Blaze-uno1]

🤣

[@calebemerson9317]

The Lobos usually get smoked against ranked teams so I don’t blame UNM fans for being pessimistic and not showing up.

[@Blackfedoraowner]

@@calebemerson9317Yeah they probably expected a blowout but hey good for New Mexico keeping bowl hopes alive

[@grondhero]

It was pretty loud for about a thousand people.

[@newsaxonyproductions7871]

Sounded like the crowd was going nuts there near the end lol

[@BrodieHolmes24]

Yeah, shocked me how loud it seemed.

[@tperk]

Whenever you saw those two huge NM offensive linemen pulling to the flank you knew they were going to mow down some people and the runner was going to get yards.

[@kimoandrews5802]

My Lobos! Is there any chance we keep Dampier?

[@Waterboyofsuperman]

Well he stayed when Bronco was hired. As long as he’s buying into the program and the culture and what Bronco’s offering, there’s reason to think he’ll stay. If it’s all about the money he’ll have options.

[@HonkyKong258]

I'd like to think that Dampier will stay at least another year. He's obviously phenomenal and I could easily see him going elsewhere. That said, having the name number of INTs and touchdowns is a horrendous ratio, so I think another year with the Lobos to clean things up and start making serious noise in the MWC before he looks elsewhere. That said, who knows? Maybe he does the full Josh Allen and sticks around.

[@davidfarr9678]

@@HonkyKong258you’re not wrong on the td to int ratio but 16 rushing touchdowns makes that a lot more manageable

[@alfredohernandez494]

I think all the SEC teams will be calling his name guy is crazy fast

[@Twizzybeatzz]

Really enjoyed watching Bronco as the BYU head coach. It's cool to see the turnaround he's helping UNM have. We've been really bad for a really long time and it feels, in some small way, we've come home finally. Sick game.

[@TechSeries_Studio]

They been bad for 8 years hasn’t been that long

[@Twizzybeatzz]

UNM has had 5 seasons where they ended over .500 in the last 20 years. The best season we've had was 10-1 in 1982. We've been bad for a while, mate.

[@justinpeters347]

I think this one the biggest upsets of collage football!!!!

[@rayvenskye3274]

No. Northern Illinois beating Notre dame is still the biggest this year.

[@SPIRIT-117]

​@@rayvenskye3274don't forget Vandy over Bama!

[@Blackfedoraowner]

Definitely top 5 this year but not quite the best this year. Stanford Louisville is almost at this level so there is tough competition.

[@BrodieHolmes24]

Along with the others that have been said, Arkansas over Tennesse was huge too! Crazy year

[@bargainbuilds5422]

It wasn't really unexpected though. Just a really bad matchup for WSUs rush defense and it was on the road. I was unfortunately prepared for it as a Wazzu fan

[@2011minnyman]

diabolical coaching malpractice calling no timeouts on new mexico's last possession

[@Wicked_Awesome_Sports]

If the pac 12 still existed, their division race would be HIGH drama

Colorado against Oregon in Las Vegas would have been something.

[@aaronthesaxman660]

Good for Bronco Mendenhall and company!

[@jonathanrequena4361]

Honestly as a die hard New Mexico State fan shoutout to the lobos, tall headed in a real good direction now keep fighting 💪🏾

[@davidfarr9678]

Yall should be happy for them. I’m a PSU fan, NMSU was my secondary team the last two years with pavia and kill (still cheer for them at bandy) this year it’s bronco and Devon. Still root for the Aggies on those week night CUSA games

[@jimboslice5647]

Happy for New Mexico. They have a good coach so look for them to be better next year.

[@Blaze-uno1]

Dampier and Sanders need to stay in New Mexico and get some good defenders.

[@no-yj2cf]

[@FormulaMeme]

I saw Dampier play against my Arizona earlier this season and my first thought was that he's definitely hitting the transfer portal after this year if he's got any eligibility left

[@kimoandrews5802]

He's a sophomore with two more years... he may be the best college QB in the country.

[@calebemerson9317]

I hope not. Mendenhall might have something brewing in ABQ. 5-2 after our 0-4 start they can easily go 6-2 to end the season and get a bowl bid and ranked team upset in his very first year as HC.

[@Late70sRocker]

I’m sure he will be tempted but if he did he wouldn’t have what’s making him great right now - his teammates and Coach Mendenhall. He’s better to stay a “big fish in a small pond” at UNM 6:08 and eat up the MWC next year and then maybe enter the NFL draft after his junior year.

[@CompletelyNormal]

Cougs gonna Coug. Even as a UW grad, I hate to see it.

[@titanicf0g]

Devon Dampier masterclass

[@thebeauchinator]

Even more impressive when you consider that going 6-6 at UNM is basically the equivalent of winning a national championship at Georgia or Alabama.

[@jimboslice5647]

Arizona almost got beat by New Mexico for the first gain Tucson. I like the plays that New Mexico calls. Excellent plays. Keep up the good work New Mexico.

[@TmaterShow]

I was watching the game a little while at work, when it went to 28-14, I turned it off, then I got the notification that UNM took the lead in the 4th, I turned the game back on and sat down for the rest of the game. 😂

Are you planning to post the full game?

Wouldn't have expected this after they got flubbed by Montana State in the opener. More purgatory for Wazzou

[@tpatrickl9539]

This is why Washington state and Oregon state didn’t get picked up by anybody. They are middling programs that fit best with Mountain West teams. Water seeks its own level and Washington state is right where they belong. Good win Lobos!

[@michaeldavisnj88]

New Mexico's first step to being as good as they were in the 2000's! Washington State does have too weak a resume to be considered for the 12-team CFP but I think this could be their best team since NFL-bust QB Ryan Leaf led them in 1997. Best of luck to both teams!

[@mr.t1941]

WSU scores 35 pts AND you only show 3!!!! Offensive plays. What a homer

[@williamsewell6094]

C’mon NM fans, don’t rush the field for beating Wazzu. They already won their “bowl” game by beating the Huskies. That’s their version of winning the Super Bowl. The result of this game was no surprise whatsoever. Great win, Lobo’s, but don’t make a big deal of it.
