So, which bowl do you think we'll get?

With a winning record, I'm certain we'll be bowling. Are we destined for the New Mexico Bowl again or are there any other bowls in play?
 
Frisco should be in play. After seeing the crowd today I strongly believe a Texas bowl is in order. If fans won't support them in EP then they won't 4hrs up the road either. Give the Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and Houston alumni a chance to support the team.

There were more miner fans in Denton last week then it looked like in the Sun Bowl so no lie!!! I'll definitely be there if they come to Frisco!

Does Dimel get the extension?

I will be at the Bowl Game unless we are in the Bahamas or something
If he wins the bowl game, I can see it.

At the very least, I want to see next season. He has improved the team, and I wonder if that will continue next season. (I hope.)

If he wins the bowl game then it's earned. We haven't won one of those in close to 60 years.

I'm too far away for it to matter, but the Athletic Department should take a survey to see which bowl would be better attended. That is a factor for some bowls picking teams to give an offer to. If by some miracle the Miners win a bowl game, yes Dimel should get an extension. If we have a great season next year and win a bowl game, then Dimel can pretty much write his own ticket. The team still has to put it on the field, but the opportunity is there. Go Miners.

New Mexico Bowl. Said it from the moment we got the 6th win and I still believe it.
Probably will be the NM Bowl but I hope it turns out to be a bowl in Texas since the covid uptick in NM is going strong and they are much more likely to halt events like that.
 
I hope it’s the Frisco Bowl to give UTEP fans, alumni and players families in the five major Texas cities a chance to attend the game. The Miners can also benefit from the exposure of playing in the DFW, which is a major recruiting hotbed. As someone pointed out, we had a strong showing of Miner fans at Apogee stadium in Denton last weekend.

Not to mention the NM bowl should be more efficient cost wise since we would more than like take a bus instead of flying into DFW. The Frisco Bowl is the Tuesday following the NM Bowl so it’ll be a tough one if you need to take time off work.
