Airport chaos erupts after driver suddenly smashes through fence, hits plane and tractor: police
A New Hampshire airport was allegedly breached Saturday after a teenager fleeing police crashed through a perimeter fence, striking a parked plane and nearby tractor, authorities said.
The incident unfolded at Portsmouth International Airport shortly after 8 p.m., New Hampshire State Police (NHSP) said Sunday.
The suspect was identified as Wyatt Seely, 17, of Rochester, who officials said was found intoxicated following the crash.
According to authorities, the pursuit began when officials were searching for "a vehicle related to reported crimes in other local jurisdictions."

Evan Kung wins Bassmaster Elite at St. Lawrence River in a tournament for the record books
What a finale to the 2026 Bassmaster Elite Series regular season.
Nine different anglers crossed the 100-pound mark this week at the Bassmaster Elite at St. Lawrence River — the most Century Belts ever awarded at a single smallmouth event in Bassmaster history.

And shockingly, that historic number almost wasn't even the most exciting thing that happened.
Evan Kung made a furious final-day charge from behind to run down leader Trey McKinney and steal the tournament win right at the finish, capping a week in which he entered with his Elite Series career on the line.
Kung came into the St. Lawrence needing a strong finish just to keep his card in the Bassmaster Elite Series. Instead, he built a lead through four days of consistent fishing and closed it out with a Phoenix Boats Big Bass award (6 pounds, 13 ounces) on top of the tournament win.
"It was a crazy week," Kung said. "I knew every day going in what I needed to catch just to stay in the Elites. Once I had that locked up, I went out today wanting the Century Belt. Once I had that, I just went looking for big ones."
TENNESSEE ANGLER LANDS MONSTER 15-POUND LARGEMOUTH BASS THAT SHATTERS STATE RECORD HELD SINCE 2015
He described a gutsy final-day gamble that paid off: "I went to the lake for three hours, didn't catch a fish, came back in the river and caught that big one in the last 20 minutes. It was a crazy week."
His pattern all week was simple and repeatable — about 95% drop shot, including several fish on a still-unreleased Great Lakes Finesse prototype bait.
"It's coming out soon," Kung said.
Kung entered the final day trailing McKinney's overnight lead of 83-5 by a pound and a half. He weighed in first among the two leaders and delivered a final-day bag of 27-12 — enough to vault him into the lead at 109-9 for the first time all week. That put the pressure squarely on McKinney, who needed 26-8 to answer and reclaim the win. He came up two pounds short, sealing the title for Kung in the tournament's final minutes.
"It was a tough year on me, so it's great to end it like this," Kung said after the win. "I couldn't have thought of a better ending. I'm kind of at a loss for words right now."
He thanked a support system that traveled with him all week — sponsors, friends, his mother, and his girlfriend's family.
"It's extra special to have them all here to see it," he said.
McKinney (2nd, 107-9) fell just short of the win but left Clayton with a much bigger prize waiting — Progressive Bassmaster Angler of the Year.
Tucker Smith (3rd, 107-1) and Cory Johnston (4th, 106-7) both joined the Century Club with two of the heaviest four-day totals of their careers, finishing within a pound of one another.
Cole Sands (5th, 105-10) delivered one of the week's best personal stories. The Tennessee pro spent a month and a half scouting the river ahead of the event and treated it almost like trout fishing.
"I wanted one of those Century Belts so bad for so long, and I finally got one," Sands said. "And to get it with smallmouth at the St. Lawrence — this might be my favorite bass fishery on earth."
On his approach: "I chose not to go to the lake — I saw in practice that the river had plenty of big smallmouth, and you just have to know how to read the current. It's almost like trout fishing, the way you have to drift your bait. I kept it real simple — a drop shot and a minnow bait — and it led to a great finish. No complaints."
DENNY HAMLIN CHASES MONSTER LARGEMOUTH BASS IN TEXAS WITH BASSMASTER PRO CHRIS ZALDAIN
Rounding out the Century Club: Brandon Cobb (6th, 103-14), JT Thompkins (7th, 103-0), Bryant Smith (8th, 101-3) and Fisher Anaya (9th, 100-5), who claimed his own belt on the final cast of a week that carried much bigger stakes for him (see below). Only Easton Fothergill (10th, 99-8) narrowly missed joining the club.
Nine Century Belts in a single weigh-in is proof that the St. Lawrence River is one of the best bass fishing spots in the country. Between the goby-fed smallmouth population and a stacked Elite Series field pushing each other all four days, this event will likely be remembered as one of the heaviest, most competitive smallmouth tournaments Bassmaster has ever run.
Kung's name goes on the trophy. But on a leader board where 99 pounds wasn't even enough to crack the top nine, this was a win for the whole field — and for a river that delivered on every promise made about it heading into tournament week.

Family sues after 6-year-old girl dies when badminton racket shaft pierces skull
The family of a 6-year-old New Jersey girl who died after a badminton racket came apart and pierced her skull during a Maine vacation is suing the Massachusetts-based maker of the sports equipment.
"This case represents a parent’s worst nightmare," Attorney Charles P. Hehmeyer, who is representing the family, said. "The Morgan family was enjoying an idyllic summer vacation here in Maine when they lost Lucy due to what we allege was a dangerous and defective piece of sports equipment."
The wrongful death and product-liability lawsuit alleges Franklin Sports sold a defective and unreasonably dangerous badminton racket that failed during normal use and turned its metal shaft into a projectile.
Lucy Morgan was vacationing with her parents and siblings in Limerick, Maine, on June 1, 2024, when the tragedy unfolded.
COLLEGE GRAD REPORTEDLY DIES IN SIX FLAGS ROLLER COASTER INCIDENT AS FAMILY SUES THEME PARK
Maine State Police said Lucy’s 10-year-old brother was playing outside when the aluminum shaft became dislodged from the wooden handle. The shaft struck Lucy in the head and pierced her skull, authorities said.
Lucy was taken to Southern Maine Health Care in Sanford before being airlifted to Maine Medical Center in Portland, where she died June 5, 2024, police said.
U.S. TRACK STAR SUES PUMA TEAM OVER F1 TEAM-DESIGNED GEAR SHE SAYS CAUSED CAREER-ENDING INJURY
According to a copy of the complaint reviewed by WCVB 5, the Franklin badminton set had been supplied at the family’s rental cottage.
The lawsuit alleges the racket’s handle and metal shaft were not adequately secured, the adhesive joining the pieces was defective or insufficient, and the design lacked a secondary restraint that could have prevented the metal portion from flying free. The family also alleges Franklin Sports failed to warn consumers about the risk.
Hehmeyer told WCVB 5 that the case was not Franklin Sports’ first issue involving a racket separating. He said a child in New York lost an eye when a racket came apart, and alleged the company knew of that case but failed to make a fix.
"The company knew that but chose not to correct this with something as simple as a pin in the handle, which would cost pennies," Hehmeyer told the outlet.
The lawsuit seeks compensatory and punitive damages, though it does not list a specific dollar figure. The family is seeking funeral expenses, emotional distress damages, loss of comfort, society and companionship, and other relief permitted under Maine law.
According to the complaint obtained by PEOPLE, Lucy’s three siblings witnessed the incident and suffered "severe emotional distress." Her parents heard her screaming and ran to her aid, the complaint alleges.
HEARTBROKEN FATHERS FIND DIVINE HOPE IN SECRET NOTES LEFT BY GIRLS KILLED IN CAMP MYSTIC FLOOD
Lucy’s father, Jesse Morgan, a pastor at Green Pond Bible Chapel in Rockaway, New Jersey, previously wrote that the family had been spending its final full day at a lake cottage when the children decided to play badminton in the front yard.
FLORIDA 3-YEAR-OLD DIES AFTER TRAGIC INCIDENT INVOLVING COMMON PLAY TOY AT BABYSITTER'S HOUSE
In the days following Lucy’s death, Jesse Morgan shared the faith that sustained his family through their grief. He told Fox News Digital that a friend returned Lucy’s backpack after the family came home from Maine, and inside was the prayer journal she had received about a month before she died. The journal contained drawings, Bible-themed notes and messages about her belief in God, her father said.
Jesse Morgan told Fox News Digital he had no doubt Lucy "loved Christ and loved God," and that God welcomed her into heaven. He described discovering the journal as one of the "most beautiful gifts" amid the family’s loss, adding that he believed his daughter had "the faith of a mustard seed."
Fox News Digital reached out to Franklin Sports and attorneys for the Morgan family for comment.

Scottie Scheffler turns hot-mic F-bomb into motivation, rallies for Tour Championship win
Scottie Scheffler shot a bogey-free 66 during Saturday’s third round at the Tour Championship and still looked frustrated throughout the round.
After missing a putt at East Lake, Scheffler’s emotions finally boiled over and they were caught on a hot mic.
"How does it go back that way? F---ing grain’s over here," Scheffler said.
Scheffler’s inability to convert longer birdie looks in the third round left him three shots behind Viktor Hovland entering Sunday’s final round.
But, as is often the case with the world’s best golfer, the minor struggles were covered up by stretches of incredible dominance. One day later, the putts started dropping and frustration turned into another Tour Championship trophy.
SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER REVEALS HE PLAYED THROUGH 'PRETTY PAINFUL' ILLNESS DURING THE BMW CHAMPIONSHIP
The world No. 1 came from behind on a punishing afternoon at East Lake, shooting a 4-under 66 to finish at 16-under and win the Tour Championship for the second time. Scheffler's Sunday 66 tied the low round of the day. No other player in the final three pairings shot better than 1 over.
When Scheffler's tap-in par hit the bottom of the cup on the final hole, the tournament had effectively ended, even with four players still on the course.
It didn’t take long for Scheffler to let the entire field know that if they wanted to win the Tour Championship, they were going to have to outplay the top player on the planet.
Scheffler nearly made an ace on the 211-yard par-3 second hole and easily tapped in for birdie.
Meanwhile, Hovland made bogey on No. 1 and Ryan Gerard, who began Sunday one shot behind Hovland in the final pairing, doubled the opening hole.
Within minutes, Scheffler had turned a three-shot deficit into a one-shot deficit.
Most people could probably figure out where this was heading next.
Scheffler birdied Nos. 2, 4, 8, 10, 13 and 16, with bogeys at Nos. 7 and 14. His birdie at No. 13 gave him the outright lead for the first time in the tournament.
The bogey at No. 14 briefly brought him back into a tie with Hovland, and Chris Gotterup had a birdie putt that would have moved him within one shot of the leaders. Gotterup missed it, nearly hit his tee shot into the water at the par-3 15th and made bogey after a poor chip. Another bogey at 16 ended his chances.
That left the Tour Championship where it had felt headed for much of Sunday: Scheffler versus Hovland.
Scheffler's birdie at No. 16 stretched the lead to two. Hovland had a chance to answer, but another birdie putt caught the lip and stayed out. The Norwegian dropped his putter in frustration, knowing that his chances of hoisting the trophy had all but ended.
Hovland’s last real chance disappeared at No. 17, when he thinned his approach over the green and made another bogey.
Hovland parred the final hole to close with a 2-over 72 and finish solo second at 13 under, three shots behind Scheffler. Gerard finished solo third at 12 under and one shot ahead of a seven-way tie for fourth that included Rory McIlroy.
Hovland rode his putter to the Sunday lead.
He made 141 feet, 3 inches of putts in the opening round, including seven from at least 10 feet, and closed Saturday’s 65 with six straight makes from at least seven feet.
Sunday was the opposite.
In the final round, Hovland’s longest made putt was a 6-foot par save. His 18-foot par putt at No. 13 lipped out after he appeared to think it was in and began walking after it. Birdie tries at Nos. 15 and 16 also caught the lip.
Hovland’s driver didn’t help. He hit five of seven fairways on the front nine, then missed four straight on the back and five of seven over the final nine holes.
His No. 13 bogey also brought the day’s biggest controversy.
CBS showed an ultra-close replay that appeared to show Hovland’s club touch the sand as he began his backswing on a bunker shot. PGA Tour rules official Mark Dusbabek said the Tour received "several inquiries" about the shot but could not determine with certainty that the club made contact. No penalty was assessed.
Under Rule 12.2b, touching sand with a club during the backswing for a shot from a bunker results in the general penalty of two strokes.
The replays and still images appeared to show a mark in the sand behind Hovland’s ball, ensuring the decision will be debated despite Scheffler’s late separation. While it didn’t ultimately affect the winning score, it carried major payout implications.
A two-stroke penalty would have moved Gerard into solo second and dropped Hovland into an eight-way tie for third at 11 under, which would have cost Hovland just over $3 million.
The victory also gave Scheffler revenge against Hovland after their earlier showdown at the Travelers Championship.
Hovland’s only 2026 PGA Tour victory entering this week came at the Travelers, where he and Scheffler played together in Sunday’s final pairing before Hovland beat him in a Monday playoff.
This time, Scheffler was not beside Hovland in the final group. He started three back, chased him down, and ultimately beat him by three shots.
It was also a very different Tour Championship victory for Scheffler.
His only previous Tour Championship win came in 2024, when he began at 10 under par due to the FedExCup Starting Strokes format. The PGA Tour eliminated starting strokes in 2025, putting every player at even par to begin this week. Scheffler’s 2024 win came with a built-in advantage. This one came after a three-shot deficit on Sunday.
The title gives Scheffler three wins in 2026, along with 13 top-five finishes in 20 starts. He had already won The American Express and FedEx St. Jude Championship, while adding runner-up finishes at the Masters, RBC Heritage, Travelers Championship and 3M Open.
He did not win a major this season, his first major-less year since 2023, but the Tour Championship gave Scheffler’s year a defining win and a strong case to win his fifth consecutive PGA Tour Player of the Year.
Wyndham Clark is the main challenger after winning three times, including the U.S. Open and BMW Championship. But Scheffler’s ridiculous consistency, along with winning two FedEx Cup Playoff events in the past three weeks, makes it a tight race that could easily go either way.
It was also a needed win for American golf. Europe won last year’s Ryder Cup, and non-Americans claimed three of the four majors this season. With the Presidents Cup next month, Scheffler delivered another reminder that the United States still has golf’s most reliable big-game player.
Ex-Pentagon official urges US to ‘squeeze’ UK on defense amid Falklands furor
A report that Washington could use the Falkland Islands to pressure Britain into meeting its NATO defense commitments drew a swift rebuttal Sunday from a former Pentagon official, who insisted the long-standing U.S. neutrality on the islands remains unchanged.
Morgan Murphy, a former press secretary in the War Department, told Fox News Digital that while Washington has not altered its position on Falklands sovereignty, he believes the Trump administration may apply heavy diplomatic leverage over London's military budget.
"You don’t take the security and skip the bill. That is free-riding," Murphy said, before adding: "Friends tell friends the check is due. Squeeze is accountability."
The Falklands' dispute escalated after reports emerged that U.K. Chancellor John Healey is expected to announce that the government will drop its target of spending 3% of gross domestic product on defense by 2030 when he delivers his first budget in October, according to The Financial Times.
TOP US ALLY'S DEFENSE CHIEF QUITS, WARNS MILITARY LACKS RESOURCES FOR RISING THREATS
The tension comes amid a six-month Pentagon review of U.S. troop deployments in Europe led by Under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby, according to Reuters.
As Washington pushes European allies and Canada to take greater responsibility for NATO’s conventional defense, the U.S. is expected to retain a supporting role, including its nuclear deterrent, according to The Associated Press.
"We can’t ‘withdraw support’ for sovereignty of the Falklands that was never there," Murphy said. "Policy experts know the difference between an unsourced whisper to a British paper that ‘nothing is being ruled out’ and an official word from the White House."
Murphy said the U.S. remains neutral on Falkland sovereignty and continues to recognize British administration of the islands.
Addressing reports from April of an internal Pentagon email suggesting the U.S. could review its position on the islands, Murphy noted the lack of confirmation.
"I have not seen that email. The Pentagon did not confirm it. The official word that followed was the same U.S. position we have now: neutral on sovereignty, recognize British administration," Murphy said.
"I no longer work at the White House and can’t speak in any way for the administration, but I can say that the islanders voted 99.8% to stay British in 2013," he said of Falkland Islanders, who voted in a referendum that year to remain a British overseas territory.
Murphy emphasized that Washington, however, would maintain other diplomatic options without altering the status quo in the Falklands and said the U.S. is actively pressuring Britain on defense obligations.
Under current projections, U.K. defense spending would reach 2.7% of GDP by 2030, with the government expected to set a new timeline for reaching 3% on its path toward NATO’s core defense-spending target by 2035.
According to the 2025 Hague Summit Declaration, NATO allies agreed to spend 5% of GDP annually on defense and security-related expenditures by 2035, including at least 3.5% on core defense requirements, and to submit annual plans charting a credible path to meet NATO capability targets.
AS TRUMP'S NATO GAMBLE PAYS OFF, ENVOY NAMES ALLIES HE'S STILL WATCHING
"Last year in The Hague they signed up for 5% by 2035, which won headlines, but Britain still will not lock 3% by 2030," Murphy said. "I’ve watched this town treat a treaty like a suggestion. Friends don’t let allies cheat. So yes, squeeze London on the number."
He added: "This is the habit: put a number in a communiqué, then treat it as optional. They signed the pledge. They still slide."
Describing potential U.S. pressure on London as "leverage, not abandonment," Murphy said pushing Britain to increase defense spending would be "in the best national security interest of the U.S. and the U.K."
"After Wales in 2014, most of Europe missed the 2% guideline while the U.S. shouldered the load as usual," Murphy added.
"The United States extends the nuclear umbrella, the intel, the industrial base, the special relationship … You squeeze a budget with tools that move a budget," he said of Washington’s process.
STARMER IN 'SEISMIC' CRISIS, UK DEFENSE CHIEF QUITS BEFORE HIGH-STAKES TRUMP NATO SUMMIT
"Public pressure from the president. Annual Hague reviews. A dated 3% by 2030, or a funded path to 3.5% core by 2035, before the next UK defense budget. The special relationship is a privilege, not a welfare program.
"Tariffs if the White House wants them," Murphy warned.
"The UK is playing a central role in NATO and strengthening collective defence across Europe," a U.K. government spokesperson said, according to Sky News. "We are NATO's third-largest cash spender on defence and the only European NATO member to commit our nuclear deterrent to the alliance."

Mamdani turns on New York City teachers union with lawsuit blocking pay raises for educators
The United Federation of Teachers (UFT), New York City's largest teachers union, is fighting back against Mayor Zohran Mamdani's efforts to block a city-backed pay raise for education paraprofessionals, after the group previously endorsed him last year.
Last month, the New York City Council unanimously passed the "RESPECT Check Act," which would offer up to a $10,000-bonus for education paraprofessionals.
Though Mamdani supported a version of the bill in the past, he has since spoken out against it, arguing that it violates New York state's Taylor Law, which protects public employees' rights to negotiate issues like compensation. His administration later filed a lawsuit to stop the law from being enacted Aug. 19.
FLASHBACK: MAMDANI'S HISTORY OF DODGING QUESTIONS ABOUT WHERE HE STANDS ON KEY ISSUES
In response, the UFT filed a motion to intervene last week, preparing to take the issue to court if Mamdani continues to fight the measure.
"We knew this lawsuit was a possibility, and we were prepared," UFT President Michael Mulgrew told Fox News Digital in a statement. "The RESPECT check law, which was unanimously passed by City Council on July 16, was carefully drafted to make sure that it did not violate the state’s Taylor Law, which governs collective bargaining."
He added, "The City Council would not have introduced — let alone passed — this bill if it were illegal, and we would not have supported a bill that threatened our collective bargaining rights. This moment is an opportunity for Mayor Mamdani to create a new, fairer system and build the kind of city he said he wanted to lead. This administration must keep its promises, and we won’t stop until it does."
Fox News Digital reached out to Mamdani's office for comment but did not immediately receive a reply.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, the city council pointed to a joint statement made by City Council Speaker Julie Menin and council member Carmen De La Rosa on Mamdani's lawsuit earlier this month.
"Every member of the Council, in a unanimous and bipartisan vote, supported the RESPECT Check Act because it is unacceptable that paraprofessionals who support some of our highest-need students are earning as little as $32,000 a year. This law is not only the right thing to do, it is also the fiscally responsible thing to do, helping address the staffing shortages that contribute to the City’s $1.5 billion in Carter case costs. The Council will vigorously defend the law," the statement read.
The UFT previously endorsed Mamdani after he secured the Democratic nomination for New York City mayor in July 2025.
Despite the lawsuit, Mamdani said in a news conference last week that discussions with Menin and the UFT have been "productive," adding that he does not oppose a pay raise for paraprofessionals.
"The relationship [with Menin] continues as it’s been, and the talks [with the UFT] have been productive," Mamdani said. "They’ve been productive because we have a shared understanding of the critical role that paraprofessionals play in our public school system and in our city."
Border czar Tom Homan fires back after Democrat Chris Murphy claims ICE is ‘terrorizing little kids’
White House border czar Tom Homan fired back on Sunday's "State of the Union" after Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., accused U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") of targeting parents at school bus stops in Danbury, Connecticut.
"Trump says ICE is targeting criminals. They aren't. It's a lie," Murphy posted to X on Friday. "In Danbury, they are just targeting parents sitting at school bus stops just to terrorize little kids."
On CNN's "State of the Union", Homan rejected Murphy's characterization of ICE operations.
"ICE isn't in the business of terrorizing children," Homan told host Dana Bash. "That's just political fire. ICE is out there enforcing the law that was enacted by Congress. Did we arrest illegal aliens [that are] parents? I'm sure many are. But we're not out there to terrorize children."
TOM HOMAN FIRES BACK AT FLORIDA DEMOCRAT OVER 'RIDICULOUS' ICE RACIAL PROFILING CLAIM
Homan went on to say that he was unaware of the bus-stop arrest but would seek more information. He acknowledged that ICE no longer operates under its former sensitive-locations policy. DHS rescinded the Biden-era guidance in January 2025, restoring officers' discretion to conduct enforcement in or near schools, hospitals and houses of worship.
A DHS spokesperson also fired back at Murphy's comments and accused the Democratic senator of trying to score political points while immigration officers face increased threats of violence.
"Any claim that ICE targeted parents at a school bus stop is FALSE," a DHS spokesperson said in a statement.
"Unsurprisingly, Senator Murphy’s narrative is a work of fiction aimed at scoring cheap political points at the expense of our officers, who are facing a 1,300% increase in assaults against them, a 3,200% increase in vehicular attacks against them, and an 8,000% increase in death threats against them," the spokesperson added.

"Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, if you break the law, you will face the consequences," the official continued. "Illegal aliens are not welcome in the U.S. We will find you, we will arrest you, and we will deport you whether Connecticut’s pro-criminal illegal alien senator likes it or not."
DHS identified the man arrested in Danbury as Leonel Geovanny Morocho-Arteaga, 28, and said he entered the country illegally before Border Patrol arrested and released him in 2021. Agents found a large kitchen knife in his center console during Wednesday’s targeted vehicle stop, according to the department. DHS added that a child connected to the case remained under her mother’s guardianship without explaining their relationship.
Federal court records show Morocho-Arteaga filed a habeas corpus petition in Connecticut on Wednesday, the day of his arrest. DHS did not identify the other people whom Danbury United for Immigrants described as parents or provide a total for the week's operation.
Danbury Mayor Roberto Alves said close to 50 community members were detained last week and described ICE activity near schools and a daycare, with an advocacy group saying four parents were taken while school buses were present.

From FSU to Dan Mullen, here are three 'overreactions' from week zero of the college football season
The college football appetizer known as week zero has come and gone, and although it wasn't quite as robust as the real opening week that is still to come, it did more than enough to keep football fans satisfied while they wait for the main course this coming Saturday.
Yesterday felt like a return to normalcy for college football fanatics after months of court dates and NIL doomsday prophecies, and it was nice to just sit back and watch some glorious pigskin action without worrying about any of that extracurricular garbage that has been plaguing the news cycle.
One of the telltale signs that the season is underway is the myriad overreactions you will see up and down your social media timeline, and Saturday evening/Sunday morning was no different.
As you'll see, it's never too early to overreact to your team's performance in the first week of the year, even with an expanded College Football Playoff affording teams more regular-season Mulligans than ever before.
Here are three overreactions you'll see all over your phone screen as you do your Sunday afternoon scroll, and some carry more weight than others.
If I could sum up Florida State's 2026 opener against New Mexico State on Saturday night in one word, it would be "woof."
And I'm not alone in that assessment, FSU fans took to social media for the majority of the past 16 hours and absolutely trashed their beloved Noles.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL’S AP TOP 25 IS OUT: WHO’S OVERRATED, UNDERRATED AND FLAT-OUT SNUBBED?
It wasn't without merit, either.
The Seminoles were 31.5-point favorites heading into the contest, with New Mexico State coming off a 4-8 season in 2025.
Florida State ended up only winning by 17, and the game got as close as 10 midway through the fourth quarter.
If it wasn't for a bad pick in the red zone to open the game and a drop by a wide open receiver in the end zone, the Aggies might have actually pulled the upset in Tallahassee.

The Noles got bullied on the lines of scrimmage by a team much smaller than them and their new quarterback, Auburn transfer Ashton Daniels, was a mixed bag in his debut in garnet and gold.
Fans are already calling for head coach Mike Norvell's firing, but the odds of that happening before the season are slim given his exorbitant buyout.
The truth is, FSU supporters might be in for another long season, and this overreaction might carry some weight.
The UNLV Rebels were a trendy pick to make the College Football Playoff this season as a Group of 6 representative, and while that might still happen, those dreams took a big hit with a 27-21 home loss to fellow G6 Playoff hopefuls Memphis on Saturday.
Head coach Dan Mullen spent the majority of the news conference complaining that his fans were making too much noise while the Rebs were on offense instead of worrying about other things like why his defense was getting torched by a Division II transfer at quarterback.
I've seen a ton of UNLV fans making impassioned pleas to Mullen asking him to fire defensive coordinator Paul Guenther, but plenty of them have come to the realization that it won't be happening.
As a Florida Gator fan, I can confirm Mullen is prepared to go down with the ship as his embattled DC sits right alongside him in the captain's quarters.
This is the fatal flaw of Mullen: he's stubborn and loyal to a fault.
He had a ton of chances to fire Florida defensive coordinator Todd Grantham as he harpooned any chances the Gators had of winning a championship in 2020, and I fear he will do much of the same in Vegas.
Now, the part that makes this an overreaction is the fact that Guenther is in year one as the UNLV defensive coordinator.
Perhaps he turns it around, but getting dissected by a quarterback and head coach (Charles Huff) in their very first game with the program is not exactly a good sign.
File this one under "something to keep an eye on."
If you were on social media at all in the last 24 hours, you are probably aware of USC's attendance problem during their opening game against San Jose State.
The Trojans have arguably their most talented team since head coach Lincoln Riley arrived five seasons ago and have a legitimate shot at making the CFP, but the fans weren't convinced.
Several shots of the Coliseum showed what could, generously, be described as a half empty stadium. So what gives?
Defenders of the program will blame the empty seats on things like a heat wave, or classes not starting yet. Others fire back with screenshots of a home venue packed to the gills with USC fans during similarly hot temperatures just a few short years ago.
Are fans punting on Riley right as he's about to turn things around?
I think the truth is probably a lot more simple and less sinister than that.
Los Angeles isn't a huge sports town, and I think fans need to see proof of concept before they show up to a game and support their team.
I say this as someone who is from a similarly fair-weather sports town in Miami; the Dolphins and Hurricanes will play to a stadium that is barely half full unless they are legitimate championship contenders.
It's just the way it is.
I will say this, for as empty as the Coliseum was on Saturday, the students did their part, as their section of the stadium was packed to the gills and screaming full throat for their Trojans.
This is absolutely an "overreaction," and the minute USC is 4-0 and ranked in the top 10 when they play Oregon, I guarantee you that the building will be rocking.
