The New Mexico Bowl could have some home cooking as the game features Fresno State from the Mountain West traveling to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to take on New Mexico State. Despite New Mexico State’s close proximity to the site of its in-state rival — Utah State — the Aggies are making their first appearance in this bowl game. 

New Mexico State has experienced a resurgence under coach Jerry Kill, who has guided the program to back-to-back bowl appearances in his two years leading the Aggies. Last season’s success, highlighted by the program’s first bowl bid since 2017, provided a springboard to even more impressive heights as New Mexico State won 10 games and finished as the Conference USA runner-up in 2023. It’s just the second time in program history New Mexico State has recorded a double-digit win season, and with a victory the Aggies could match the school record from 1960 with 11 wins. 

Fresno State enters under slightly different circumstances as the Bulldogs will be led by acting coach Tim Skipper as Jeff Tedford has temporarily stepped away for medical reasons. The Bulldogs had a terrific start to the season, winning eight of their first nine games with two wins against power conference competition. But three straight losses to close the regular season put an end to Mountain West title and New Year’s Six bowl hopes. So Saturday’s game is an opportunity to put a better finish on what has been a successful season.
