Abeline Christian coming to town

Well this is an interesting thread, for sure.

The game against ACU could be win/win for UTEP. The last time we beat a FBS team was 2014 when we beat Troy. After losing to a lowly FCS team like us they decided it was time for a coaching change. The Trojans wound up hiring Neal Brown who complied a 35-16 record and three straight 10:win seasons capped by bowl wins.

Then again, wins over SFA and us would show your coach may have the program headed in the right direction after all. And wins are wins and better than losses.

On another note, I loved the description of your Qb as a guy with a “golden arm but the legs of a chihuahua.” We will counter with two QB’s with the legs of greyhounds. Neither has a golden arm though, more like silver and bronze.

No one in El Paso is penciling you all a "win". We are not a good team but UTEP is loaded at rb. Our third year coach has shown no signs of improvement despite recruiting good talent. His last HC gig at Houston almost cost the school the program twenty five years ago according to one source. According to another good source on here the UTEP O line is not looking good at all for pass protection so you all may get some good defensive hi lite's along with that nice electronic funds transfer for coming down to El Paso.
