With the Big 12 and Mountain West both limiting their non-conference football games, UTEP could be playing a reduced schedule of only 10 games in 2020.
The UTEP athletic department and Group of 5 conferences like C-USA have millions of dollars at stake with the Big 12's decision on their 2020 football schedule.
Over the weekend, UTEP sent out a release to confirm what felt like inescapable news. Five Miner student-athletes tested positive for COVID-19 and as a result, the university's athletic facilities will close for extensive cleaning until Thursday, July 16.
Head coach Dana Dimel, entering his third offseason at the helm of the program, addressed the media Wednesday afternoon to discuss this year's recruiting class.
In a matchup that featured eight combined turnovers, 14 total punts and just two offensive touchdowns, Arizona State (8-5) prevailed and capitalized on Florida State's (6-7) mistakes, winning the 86th annual Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl, 20-14.
It's almost here! The Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl is just days away from kicking off as both Florida State (6-6, 4-4 ACC) and Arizona State (7-5, 4-5 Pac-12) have begun practicing in El Paso.
