It’s close now, huh?….No. 2 son and I are talking about season tickets for New Mexico Lobo Football….1st home game….Texas Tech….I hope Tuberville will throw the football like the Leach teams did….No, he will not pass that much…Texas Tech starts out with SMU, so we will know more later. After Texas Tech, Utah comes to town…Utah is always a good ball club and the Lobos normally play them pretty tough. Then after an away game with UNLV we are at home playing UTEP. Price has been doing a good job at UTEP and is bringing in some good recruits…They could easily be 3 – 1 or even 4 – 0 coming in….Then, San Diego State, Wyoming and TCU….Some good home games…Sweetie says, “Why would you want to watch them play?”….Well, a good question and we may get beat up on some again this year but I really think we will be much better than last years 1-11 record….Maybe not bowl eligible this year but I am hoping at least 5 – 7, maybe even better….We start with Oregon Sept 4, so we will know pretty quick….One other point, most of us New Mexicans are going to be watching Oklahoma this year as Landry Jones will be starting for the Sooner’s…We watched this Artesia, NM boy for several years and a lot of us were hoping he would choose New Mexico…He did a good job last year filling in for Sam Bradford and we wish him well…They start with WAC member Utah State at home, then Florida State at home, then Air Force at home….The Tide start with San Jose State and then Penn State (and this should be one of the good early season games)……Our friends down the road, New Mexico State starts with San Diego State, so we will get a good read on two opponents there…Wisconsin starts off with UNLV, then San Jose State and Arizona State….No. 3 son lives in Madison so I follow these guys also….It’s kind’a of my time of year…Always has been…I’m ready….
