New MWC Possibility:

How would you be feeling if we were all UNLV fans at this point? All the “good” teams left and basically “we” decided not to follow them.

The MWC replaced San Diego, Boise, Fresno, Colorado St, and Utah St with Hawaii, UTEP, GCU, UCDavis, and NIU. 1 group is clearly better than the other. Not to mention the other group added Gonzaga.

Instead of playing Gonzaga and San Diego St in basketball, they’re playing UC Davis and Hawaii in 2 seasons.

The way that we felt when CUSA was down to 5 teams and added all the schools there now, is how they all feel
Yeah of course I get it. My bewilderment had more to do with seeing UNLV fans ok with staying in the MWC initially, even after Reno moved on to P12.

Dear UNLV fans, you had two good seasons in football, congrats. Your basketball is nowhere the perennial top program it once was. Now settle down.

The Sun Bowl is on the Utep Campus. I hate when you guys say Utep has nothing to do with the Sun Bowl. Utep should kick the Sun Bowl out then have them play Soccoro Field or El Paso High. Utep can start its own own bowl game. The stadium is what makes the Sun Bowl, the Stadium that is own by Utep. Does the Sun Bowl organization pay Utep to have its game there?? What does the contract say?
Once again I have to ask...

Do you really believe the junk you post or are you intentionally trolling by making the dumbest remarks possible?

UTEP vs La Tech.

I think what hurts is only having 1 ticket window. El Paso is a drive crowd and people not going to wait in one ticket window.
UTEP went to electronic tickets a few years ago. It was kind of annoying at first (like most changes), but way better in my opinion.

I agree that it may deter some new or bandwagon fans who are trying to walk up and are unaware, but that's UTEP's fault for not winning. It will all be fine if they just win.

Who cares what UNLV thinks. How you think Oregon State and Wazzu feel?? How you think Texas A&M feels?? Everyone is upset.

Fili, I believe the Sun Bowl Association rents out the stadium for the game.
The teams do not practice at UTEP.
Why would the Association play in a smaller stadium when they can still draw over 40,000? I also remember the rent was like a dollar. That was part of the agreement when the county transferred ( or sold) the stadium to UTEP.

Who owns the Sun Bowl name?? Is the stadium named the Sun Bowl?

They should play in a smaller stadium because they don't do anything to help Utep. When Utep was the one who started playing in the game .it was El Paso who supports the game and made it what it is today. Utep has the most Sun Bowl wins in the history. The Rose Bowl let's USC play in its game.

Anyways, one of the more vocal UNLV fans on twitter seem to have soured on MWC. I expect them and AFA be gone first chance they get. (NMSU in when that happens?)

The cotton bowl isn't played at the cotton bowl.

Do you retain any information you see on here? UTEP has nothing to do with the Sun Bowl game. Any announcement regarding the Sun Bowl game would not be made at a UTEP event.
