New Mexico pulled out a 32-22 home victory over Idaho State in a back-and-forth contest featuring four lead changes. The Bengals briefly took a 22-17 lead early in the fourth quarter on Tytan Mason's touchdown run, but the Lobos responded with two unanswered touchdowns from Damon Bankston and Scottre Humphrey to secure the win. Humphrey was instrumental in the victory, scoring twice including a game-sealing 1-yard plunge with under two minutes remaining after earlier breaking free for an explosive 61-yard touchdown run.
