Not only have the UNLV Rebels won their 3rd game in row, they actually won the row.
From the LVRJ: UNLV put together perhaps its most impressive drive of the football season to take the lead for good tonight, and the Rebels went on to beat New Mexico 56-42 at University Stadium.
The victory ended a 23-game road losing streak for the Rebels (3-2), who also have a winning record for the first time since 2009. They also have won three in a row for the first time since 2003.
Players doused coach Bobby Hauck with water as the clock was winding down.
UNLV takes next week off before returning home to play Hawaii on Oct. 12.
The Rebels have now beaten New Mexico (1-3) five of the past six meetings.
UNLV went ahead for good after a 15-play, 80-yard drive that took 6:49 off the clock. The Rebels capped it on Caleb Herring’s 7-yard touchddown pass to Devante Davis with 4:46 left for a 49-42 lead. Tim Cornett gave the Rebels a two-touchdown advantage with a 75-yard scoring run with 3:03 remaining. http://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/unlv-rebels/football/rebels-end-road-losing-streak-defeat-lobos-56-42
I've have always said that Bobby Hauck was a very good coach and now that he has all of his players, he is starting to get a very good record.
