BOISE STATE TOPS LOBOS IN MW OPENER

Jake Roh caught two touchdown passes and took a direct snap for a 6-yard TD run, and Boise State pulled away in the fourth quarter to beat New Mexico 28-14 on Thursday night in the Mountain West opener.

The Broncos (2-1) were playing five days after losing a triple-overtime heartbreaker at Washington State.

Montrell Cozart was 15-of-19 for 137 yards passing, and added 71 yards rushing including a 28yard TD run in the first quarter. He threw a 5-yard TD to Roh in the first half and flipped a 15-yard TD pass to Roh in the fourth. Cozart got the start with Brett Rypien out because of injury.

New Mexico (1-2) was forced to use third string quarterback Coltin Gerhart after starter Lamar Jordan was knocked out late in the first half with a concussion.

Jordan was hit by Boise State’s Chase Hatada after throwing the ball away. Hatada was flagged for targeting and ejected.

Hurricanes to practice in Orlando.

CORAL GABLES,

When No. 17 Miami goes back to work next week, the Hurricanes will be hitting the road.

The Hurricanes announced that they will be practicing in Orlando when the team reconvenes from a nearly two-week break caused by Hurricane Irma.

The Hurricanes play host to Toledo on Sept. 23 and are expected to be in Orlando for the bulk of the week leading up to that game. Miami has not practiced since Sept. 5 because of the storm.
