But after seeing a 12-point fourth quarter lead disappear in Saturday night's 30-29 loss at Stanford, the Spartans head into Mountain West play with a 1-3 record, on a short week, and against a New Mexico team that has been one of the biggest surprises in the nation."

His other missed field goal came from 29-yards away with 3:50 left in the third quarter."
