What is the latest score in New Mexico vs. Nevada?

The CBS Sports tracker displayed a 14-0 New Mexico lead in its latest available snapshot, with the scoring attributed to the first quarter. It listed rushing touchdowns for Scottre Humphrey and Kiefer Sibley. The tracker also showed second-quarter play, but readers should check its live page for the current clock, score and any final result.

Those early points fit the profile New Mexico brought into the game. According to Nevada’s official game preview, the Lobos averaged 213.1 rushing yards per game through their first eight contests. An early lead can give a strong running team more flexibility, but it does not settle the outcome: turnovers, field position and second-half adjustments can change a game quickly.

When and where is the New Mexico vs. Nevada game?

The teams were scheduled to play on Friday, November 6, 2026, at Mackay Stadium in Reno. Kickoff was set for 6 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (UTC−08:00), equivalent to 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on November 6 and 02:00 UTC on November 7. The Mountain West schedule lists the Friday date and 6 p.m. Pacific start.

Some older schedule materials listed the matchup under the November 7 weekend. The conference’s later schedule and Nevada’s game-week announcement identify Friday, November 6, as the game date in Reno.

How can fans watch or listen?

CBS Sports Network was the announced television broadcaster. New Mexico’s game-day guide also listed Paramount+ as a viewing option. Access depends on the service and subscription available to the viewer.

For radio listeners, New Mexico listed the Lobo Radio Network, including 770 KKOB AM and 96.3 FM in Albuquerque, as well as an online audio feed linked from its game-day guide. Nevada listed 105.7 KOZZ in Northern Nevada and The Varsity Network. Fans looking for the score after the broadcast should use a live tracker or a team’s official results page rather than assume a previously displayed score is final.

Why does this Mountain West matchup matter?

New Mexico arrived in Reno with its first Associated Press Top 25 ranking in program history: No. 22 in the AP poll and No. 25 in the coaches poll, according to the schools’ game-week materials. The Lobos had won at San José State 21-16 to move to 4-0 in conference play.

A win would keep New Mexico unbeaten in Mountain West games and strengthen its position in the conference race. A Nevada win would give the Wolf Pack a notable result against a ranked opponent and improve its conference record. Neither outcome by itself should be treated as a clinched championship berth; the rest of the league schedule still matters.

Nevada entered after a 27-0 loss at UCLA, while its most recent conference game was a 28-13 home win over San José State. Those different results help explain the central question for the Wolf Pack: whether its defense and field-position game can keep it close enough to give the offense chances against New Mexico.

What do the numbers and series history say?

New Mexico’s pregame numbers showed strength on both sides of the ball. Nevada’s preview credited the Lobos with 35.0 points per game and a conference-low 81.6 rushing yards allowed per game. Humphrey had 540 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns before kickoff, while Sibley had 485 rushing yards and three rushing scores.

Nevada also had a defensive strength of its own. The Wolf Pack entered allowing 156.9 passing yards per game, a figure Nevada ranked eighth nationally, and opponents had converted 30.3% of their third downs. Those are season-to-date figures, not guarantees about how either defense will perform in this particular game.

In the series, Nevada held a 6-4-1 advantage entering this meeting. New Mexico’s 24-22 victory in 2025 ended a three-game Nevada winning streak. The Lobos had yet to win at Reno before this game, with an 0-4-1 record there, according to their game-day guide. That history provides context, though different rosters and circumstances limit what it can predict about the current result.
