Sam Boyd Stadium live on- The Lobo’s are moving to Las Vegas now. Will they have to spend their whole season here if they want to play football? Sounds like they may have to play every game on the road this season. What a mess New Mexico!
“In response to the state’s recent spike in COVID-19 cases that forced UNM to cancel its Oct. 24 season opener and move Saturday’s home opener on the road to San Jose, Calif., the school announced Friday afternoon that the entire football program will temporarily relocate to Las Vegas, Nev. Athletic director Eddie Nuñez said the Lobos will return from Saturday’s game at San Jose State immediately after the game and test everyone within the traveling party for COVID-19 on Sunday morning. By Sunday afternoon, the entire team and its support staff will board busses and head to the University of Nevada-Las Vegas, where the players will stay in on-campus housing and conduct all practices for at least the next week at Sam Boyd Stadium, the former home of UNLV’s football team.”
