It’s the final week of the college football regular season, and things are getting weird. Weird in a good way, of course, if you are a member of the New Mexico State Aggies or someone who’d bet on them.
The Aggies entered today’s matchup with the Liberty Flames as 24-point underdogs. So, what did they do? New Mexico State beat the Flames by 35 points on Saturday afternoon, making it officially a 59-point difference on the spread.
The unthinkable Week 13 road win gave the Aggies their fifth victory of the season, which is the program’s most since the 2017 college football season.

In 2015, UNLV beat Idaho State 80-8 as 11.5-point favorites.
The 60.5-point cover is the largest since 2005 per @Bet_Labs. https://t.co/JJIixg0m7A

New Mexico State’s Saturday win will go down as one of the season’s biggest upsets.
