NMSU is probably already the hardest place to succeed in FBS, and Doug Martin has done a good job there. But their AD has completely fvcked that team.
They are independent, so they can schedule anyone. Of course, that means they will play a handful of big money games each year in the future which should just about cover their entire staff's salary each year. But this year is brutal. First, they have to play the same team (Liberty) twice. That's miserable. They also have two bye weeks in the middle of the season which drags the season on even longer. But, they also start a week earlier than everyone (they play tomorrow night) against a solid Wyoming team and then have to turn around and travel to Minnesota a few days later.
Their game tomorrow won't get over until early Sunday morning. Three days later, they are getting on a plane for a Big 10 team. Fvvvvvvck that. What a way to start the season and already get fvcked.
