This is a pretty old rivalry and I don't understand why a UTEP/UNM game isn't a common fixture in football and basketball every year. I remember when Alford and Floyd got into it in hoops a few years back, but those days are over since Alford left, and both schools will soon have new AD's.
It just seems like an awesome opportunity to gets some more butts in the seats for sporting events that goes to waste, and it's also affordable travel for either school. With attendance down across the board nationwide, this seems like a no brainer.
