The coach of the 2013 New Mexico football team was Bob DeBesse.
Bob DeBesse is a former American football player and coach. He played college football at the University of Notre Dame as a linebacker from 1973 to 1975. After college, he went on to work as an assistant coach at a number of different schools, including Arizona, Texas A&M, Notre Dame, and Texas. He also served as the head coach at the University of New Mexico from 2012 to 2019.
Davie's coaching career began in 1982 as a graduate assistant at Pittsburgh, before moving on to work as an assistant coach at Tulane, Texas A&M, and Notre Dame, where he worked under legendary head coach Lou Holtz. He was also the head coach at Notre Dame from 1997 to 2001, where he led the Fighting Irish to a record of 35-25 over five seasons.
After a stint as an ESPN analyst, Davie returned to coaching in 2012 when he was hired as the head coach at the University of New Mexico. During his tenure at New Mexico, he led the team to a bowl game in 2015, the first bowl game for the program in eight years. However, in 2019 he was sidelined for several weeks due to health issues, and ultimately stepped down from his position at the end of the season.
In 2013, Bob DeBesse was in his second year as the head coach of the New Mexico Lobos football team. The team finished the season with a record of 3-9 overall and 1-7 in the Mountain West Conference. Despite the losing record, the Lobos showed improvement from the previous year, where they finished with a record of 4-9.
One of the bright spots for the team was the performance of running back Kasey Carrier, who rushed for 1,275 yards and 14 touchdowns on the season. The team's defense struggled, however, allowing an average of 42 points per game.
In 2013, Bob DeBesse's offense style at New Mexico was primarily a spread option attack, with the quarterback often running the ball and making quick reads to determine whether to keep the ball or pitch it to a running back. The offense also relied heavily on the running game, with the running backs carrying a significant load. Additionally, the passing game was used to keep the defense honest and take advantage of big play opportunities. Overall, the offense was designed to be fast-paced and high-scoring, with an emphasis on using multiple weapons to keep the defense guessing.
