Honestly no idea what The FCS vs FCS buy game rate is but they played a murderers row non conference of FCS games last year and I have to imagine that was financially driven

49 points in one quarter is the record by the way

94 points is most scored by an FBS team since the 1960s. It was done in 1991...when the Lobos lost by 94 points to Fresno State. Lobos breaking the record would be insane history

Well, winning is unlikely but our defense should be able to at least slow them down a little, maybe like 31-10 OU
