His days on oil rigs are done. Spence Nowinsky strikes it rich with New Mexico football

Before Spence Nowinsky built college football ’s stingiest defense, he was running through airports, inspecting storage tanks and checking gas dispensers for leaks. Football had spit him out. After a coaching change at Idaho left Nowinsky without a job, the former Minnesota State defensive lineman took work with a compliance company servicing the oil industry. The money was good. The football prospects weren’t. Then came a chance to get back in. “I think I took a $150,000 haircut to go coach football again.” CFB Unfiltered: What the CFP rankings got wrong about Indiana, Miami More than two decades later, that decision looks like one hell of an investment. Nowinsky is the architect of a New Mexico defense allowing a meager 10.89 points per game, the backbone of one of college football’s most improbable transformations under Jason Eck. The Lobos have won 17 of Eck’s first 22 games, including 14 of their past 16, and cracked the US LBM Coaches and AP polls for the first time in school history. Getting from the oil industry to Albuquerque, though, requires more than an atlas. The story traces almost 1,200 miles northeast, far closer to International Falls than New Mexico, to Mankato, Minnesota.

Lobos, Cowboys lead this week's Mountain West power rankings

LARAMIE — The Mountain West championship picture is coming into focus. New Mexico is in the driver’s seat to host the conference title game with three weeks left to play. ESPN’s power index gives the Lobos a 75.9% to win the league, followed by North Dakota State (16.6%), Wyoming (5.3%), Air Force (1.9%) and UNLV (0.4%). ESPN has New Mexico’s odds of making the College Football Playoffs at 26.9%. Here’s this week’s MW power rankings: 1. New Mexico (Last week: 1) The Lobos (8-1 overall, 5-0 MW) cruised to a 31-3 win over Nevada last weekend during their first week as a ranked team in the AP Top 25 poll. Despite the lopsided win, New Mexico fell one spot in the poll to No. 23. The Lobos still lead the country in scoring defense (10.9 points allowed) and turnover margin (plus-18). New Mexico’s offense has proven to be one dimensional, as the unit is 131st nationally in passing offense at 149.4 yards per game. The Lobos host UNLV as 14.5-point favorites at 5:30 p.m. Saturday in Albuquerque. 2. Wyoming (4) The Cowboys (6-3, 5-1) nearly blew a 20-point second-half lead but held on for a 41-35 road win over UNLV

Study Tracks Blue Pigments in Ancient Southwest

ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO—According to a statement released by the University of New Mexico, a team of researchers led by Kari Schleher of the University of New Mexico identified geological sources of azurite used by Ancestral Pueblo communities some 1,400 years ago. Azurite is a copper mineral with a vivid blue color used as a pigment or paint. The scientists analyzed two samples of azurite obtained from sources in New Mexico and Utah known to have been mined by Ancestral Pueblo people. Then they analyzed the isotopes of lead, strontium, and copper in 12 azurite specimens recovered in the Four Corners region. Most of these samples were found to have collected in the Lisbon Valley. Two of the samples came from the Zuni Mountains in New Mexico. “We were able to show the Pueblo people would travel from modern-day New Mexico up to today’s central Utah 1,400 years ago,” Schleher said. Future research will include more samples of azurite held at the New Mexico Mining Museum, and the team also plan to consult local oral histories on mine use and traditional territories, she added. Read the original scholarly article about this research in the Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports. To read about the use of azurite as a pigment in the Roman world, go to “Painting by Roman Numerals.”
