Here are the UTEP Miners offensive grades after their 36-34 win over the Houston Baptist Huskies last night at the Sun Bowl.

The Miners got away with a slim 36-34 season-opening win against Houston Baptist and start the year with a 1-0 record after their first home win in 1,008 days.

Some will argue that UTEP narrowly defeated one of the worst teams in FCS by a score of 36-34 as a 17-point favorite, but when you haven't won a game at home in 3 years, then any win is a damn nice way to start the season.  With the victory also came a stunning performance by converted senior runnin…

Despite trailing 28-20 midway into the third quarter, the Miners outscored the Houston Baptist Huskies 16-6 to close the game with a slight 36-34 win at the Sun Bowl.

Senior Brandon Jones was named the starting quarterback early in August for the Miners and head coach Dana Dimel said this week that Jones will be judged on his "leadership and body of work."

UTEP got 4 spots on a list of top colleges for Hispanics.

Daryl Edwards, the 6-foot-3 guard from LSU, will be enrolling at UTEP and will be immediately eligible to play this upcoming season for the men's basketball team.
