Following a series sweep at UAB, the Miners will hope to bounce back and get some confidence as they host the bottom team in the C-USA East Division in Florida International.

Earlier on Wednesday, Conference USA confirmed that a pair of UTEP football games will be rescheduled to play during the first two weeks of December.

Citing the lack of healthy scholarship football players, Florida International elected to cancel their matchup Saturday against UTEP.

The Miners (1-5, 0-3 C-USA) will be playing host to one of C-USA's best in LA Tech (6-1, 3-0 C-USA) on Saturday, Oct. 26, at the Sun Bowl.

The Miners (1-5, 0-2 C-USA) fell to Florida International 32-17 for their fifth straight loss, but the defense took a major step forward following their uninspiring performance against UTSA two weeks ago.

It was another all-too-familiar game for the disgruntled Miners, as they fell to Florida International 32-17 for their fifth straight loss.

From falling big on the road to underperforming at home, it's been a tough four-game stretch for the Miners (1-4) as they are coming off their second bye week of the season.

UTEP earned a 33-10 win over Florida International to win on Senior Night, improving to 2-8 on the season, and earning head coach Sean Kugler his first home win.

The UTEP Miners might be getting a new rival(s) in the near future.  UTSA has decided it want to be a player in college athletics. They started playing D-I football (FCS) in 2011, and were on the fast track to join the WAC.  That move was scheduled for July 1st, 2012...
