NM Lobos fall 66-14 at Notre Dame

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — This was supposed to be a game that marked the return of a former Notre Dame head coach, Bob Davie, to South Bend in the first college football meeting of the New Mexico Lobos and the Fighting Irish.

Instead as he recovers from illness, Davie didn’t make it to the game, a 66-14 Lobos loss that left them — and him — with several questions:

■ Is there an answer at quarterback?
■ What is the 1-1 Lobos’ offensive identity?
■ Is there any solution for a faltering defense?

The No. 7-ranked Fighting Irish squad (2-0) showed few weaknesses after the first quarter on its way to victory in front of a sellout crowd of 77,622 at Notre Dame Stadium and an NBC viewing audience.

The Lobos avoided a shutout, but Notre Dame scored its most points in a home opener since 1932 when the Irish beat Haskell 73-0.
