No way I can stay awake till 12
I wonder how much the red hats make.
Can Skip keep the undefeated record going against UTEP? Skip is their daddy.
Skip (ECU) is 2-0 vs UTEP
Skip (USF) is 1-0 vs UTEP
Skip (LA Tech) is 8-0 vs UTEP
UTEP is not as good as their record. Holtz will proclaim them as a mini Alabama, that’s just for smoke in case he loses the game. However, if we play our game and Holtz reads a magazine in the 4th, we win.
UTEP has played one decent opponent, Boazy, and got crushed.
I find it funny how the UTEPPERS are so full of themselves right now. One of their fans, while commenting on the strength of CUSA West, said the "bottom 4 of the division have to step it up." Well, that includes us, at the moment. Yes, CUSA West > CUSA East, and it's not even close. But, UTEP has been fortunate in their early season schedule and the meat of their slate begins this weekend.
Have always despised UTEP and their arrogant (for no reason) fans. We have way more talent, and I hope Skippy doesn't eff it up.
Some strong wins there...
W 30-3 @NM State (1-6) W 38-28 Bethune Cookman (0-6) L 13-54 @Boise (3-3) W 20-13 New Mexico (2-4) W 28-21 ODU (1-5) W 26-13 @USM (1-5)
The 5 teams the Miners have beaten have only 1 FBS wins amongst them. (And even one that was New Mexico over NMSU.)
But still -- credit to UTEP for winning the games they're supposed to win. Good on them.
It would probably mean a lot to that fan base to make a bowl game. I hope they do it (after a beat down from us).
Pretty rough stretch for the Miners coming up. I want to say they have us, then @FAU, then either UAB or UTSA (and of course they'll still need to play the other one later).
That UTEP - Rice game could really mean something this year (they also still have UNT).
