New Mexico (9-3) vs. Minnesota (7-5) in the 36th Rate Bowl. From Chase Field in Phoenix. Mountain West Coach of the Year Jason Eck and the Lobos play their first bowl in nine years, and first outside of Albuquerque since 2004, on the day Eck's son Jaxton, an all-MW linebacker, was born. He'll look to stop junior RB Darius Taylor of Minnesota, which was 0-5 this season away from home.
