After leading 21-7 at the end of the first half, the Miners allowed 21 unanswered points defensively as Charlotte came from behind and defeated the Miners 28-21 on Saturday night.

But in a tale of two halves, Charlotte ripped out the Miners' hopes at snapping their losing streak by putting up 297 yards of offense in the second half, scoring 21 unanswered points to beat UTEP 28-21 in a come-from-behind victory.

In the second season of a complete program rebuild, Dimel made it clear that the team will preserve a number of players as redshirts this season. Per the NCAA redshirt rules, players are allowed to play in four games without losing a season of eligibility.

The Miners football squad (1-6, 0-4 C-USA) will hit the road this weekend to face a struggling North Texas team (3-5, 2-2 C-USA) at Apogee Stadium in Denton, TX.

Stadium which is a source for sports news and information reached out to ask 130 head coaches the toughest question.

Kai Locksley had his best passing day of the season and the Miners ran the ball well, but turnovers cost UTEP in their 42-21 loss to Louisiana Tech.

Once again, UTEP's offensive performance was a mixed bag doomed by penalties in their 32-17 road loss to Florida International University Saturday night.

Despite UTEP's 1-4 overall record, head coach Dana Dimel reiterated this week that he has no plans to make a change at quarterback in the foreseeable future.

The UTEP football season is going downhill fast which means the Miners men's basketball team needs a huge turnaround to try and salvage the 2019-20 season.

Coming off back-to-back losses, the Miners (1-2) will need to regroup and get ready to start Conference USA play, as they travel to face Southern Mississippi (2-2) on Saturday, Sept. 28.
