ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —

Max Hall passed for two touchdowns and got his 29th win at BYU to match Heisman Trophy winner Ty Detmer's school record, and the No. 22 Cougars survived a sloppy fourth quarter to beat winless New Mexico 24-19 on Saturday.

The Cougars (8-2, 5-1 Mountain West) held off a focused effort by the Lobos (0-10, 0-6), who were desperate to give fans something good to talk about after a tough season that has been worsened by first-year coach Mike Locksley's problems off the field.

New Mexico made a game of it with 4:07 remaining when Donovan Porterie's 20-yard TD pass to Victor James finished a drive that started in BYU territory after an ugly 30-yard punt by BYU's Riley Stephenson. Bryan Kariya fumbled on BYU's next possession, but the Lobos turned it over on downs at midfield.
