Florida International 34-13 New Mexico State (Oct 29, 2024) Game Recap – ESPN
MIAMI — — Eric Rivers recorded 295 yards receiving to set a Florida International single-game record, and his three touchdown catches helped the Panthers beat New Mexico State 34-13 on Tuesday night to snap a three-game losing streak.
Only two receivers in Conference USA history have had more yards receiving in game than Rivers — Houston’s Donnie Avery with 346 and Louisiana Tech’s Carlos Henderson with 326. FIU’s previous school record was 201, set by three players including T.Y. Hilton.
New Mexico State only had 246 total yards — and one touchdown.
Rivers finished with three receptions of over 50 yards, highlighted by a one-handed grab with 7:49 left in the third quarter to give FIU a 17-6 lead.
His quarterback, Keyone Jenkins, threw for 338 yards and a career-high four touchdowns for FIU (3-6, 2-3). Eleven of Jenkins’ 18 completions went to Rivers.
Jenkins’ third touchdown pass was to Dean Patterson with 7:45 left in the fourth to rebuild a two-possession lead at 27-13.
Brandon Nunez and Santino Marucci each threw an interception for New Mexico State (2-6, 1-4), which was coming off a bye following a 33-30 double-overtime win at Louisiana Tech.
FIU is off until Nov. 16 – a span of 18 days – when it hits the road to face Jacksonville State.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. – Former Las Cruces Mayor Ken Miyagishima, who ran for governor as a Democrat and then as an independent, is endorsing Republican Gregg Hull.
Miyagishima ended his bid for New Mexico governor after weighing a Supreme Court appeal to stay on the ballot.
Miyagishima said on Friday he decided not to pursue an appeal to the Supreme Court over his ballot status.
“I have known Mayor Hull for almost 12 years. He is intelligent, hardworking, and a man of integrity. His record reflects his dedication to the people of both Rio Rancho and New Mexico,” Miyagishima said. “My goal is to help transform Mayor Hull into Governor Hull, deliver for the southwestern part of our state, and close the gap in our Native American communities. I am eager to mobilize support in southern New Mexico and our native lands for our future governor, Gregg Hull!”
Hull called the endorsement a sign of shared priorities as the governor’s race moves forward.
“Ken’s support demonstrates our shared commitment to the people of New Mexico,” Hull said. “Together, we will tackle the challenges in our communities, stimulate our economy, and ensure that every New Mexican has a voice in government.”
Hull is running against Democrat Deb Haaland, the former Secretary of the Interior.
