The triumphant Dawgs host the Western Athletic Conference foe on Saturday.
Georiga's charging football squad gets a break from heated SEC competition Saturday in , but the team will kick off its Homecoming contest short four running backs, after coach Mark Richt announced this week that three violated team policies and one remains injured.

- SB Nation's Doug Gillett argues with himself about the impact of featuring a former walk-on and a current walk-on in the depleted tailback position in his "Manic-Depressive Preview." (See likely starter Brandon Harton in the YouTube video.)
- The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Chip Towers calls New Mexico State the "perfect opponent at (the) perfect time" for the Bulldogs.
- Meanwhile, Jeff Barnet of the Las Cruces Bulletin warns people not to rule out the Aggies. βEvery game is winnable,β he quotes New Mexico quarterback Matt Christian saying. βCollege football is college football, and you can beat anybody, any game."
