UTEP vs UTSA What’s Going To Happen

UTSA is off to the Conference USA Championship, and UTSA is trying to keep its season going. The Miners have to win this for a bowl game, but it’s going to be a rough ride.

They’re great when they get the ground game going – they’re 4-0 when running for 199 yards or more and 1-6 when they don’t – but they’re not going to get it going against the UTSA D.

The Roadrunners will have a few shaky moments against the UTEP ground attack, but they’ll make up for it with a quick scoring drive when needed. The UTEP defense won’t be able to handle the accurate and consistent UTSA passing attack

UTEP has to hit 30 points to have a shot, and it’s not going to happen.

UTEP vs Rice Game Preview

Why UTEP Will Win

UTEP does a great job of making teams play its game.

The offense has enough occasional firepower to hit the deep shots, but it would much to prefer to grind away behind a decent offensive line that controls the tempo and the clock.

It’s not a hard formula – the Miners have to 1) run well and 2) limit the mistakes. There’s almost no margin for error here. They lost to Louisiana Tech by turning it over four times, and they gave away the 27-10 game to New Mexico by giving it away seven times.

UTEP is 3-0 when it runs for close to 200 yards or more, and it won those three games with just two turnovers. Rice is 0-4 when allowing 178 rushing yards or more, but …

– NFL Expert Picks, Week 9

Why Rice Will Win

UTEP is in trouble if Rice gets the passing game going.

The Miners survived a big day from the Charlotte air show thanks to three takeaways, but they’re just 1-4 when giving up over 170 passing yards. Rice has thrown for almost 200 in every game but the loss to USC to kick things off and in a strange win over UAB.

Rice will have to deal with a decent UTEP pass rush, but it shouldn’t be enough to be a bother.

– Game Previews, Predictions College | NFL

What’s Going To Happen

Being at home will matter to the Owls.

UTEP was able to pull off its lone road win against Charlotte and its nation-worst defense. Other than that, the team lost its other three games away from the Sun Bowl partly because there were too many mistakes.

Yeah, Rice just got bombed by Charlotte in one of the strangest deep cuts outcomes of the season – the Owls lost 56-23 thanks to a defense that didn’t show up.

The Rice run D will step its game up this week.

Middle Tennessee vs UTEP Game Preview

Why Middle Tennessee Will Win

Can the Blue Raiders keep taking the ball away and be on the right side of the overall battle?

The defense is amazing at consistently coming up with turnovers – three in three of the last four games and 15 in the last six – but that hasn’t been enough for the last few weeks.

UTEP isn’t above giving it away in bunches, and it doesn’t have the efficient and dangerous passing game to make up for the upcoming mistakes.

Middle Tennessee’s offense has to take advantage of every opportunity because …

– NFL Expert Picks, Week 8

Why UTEP Will Win

The Blue Raider offense blew a tire.

It’s not awful but it’s been progressively worse and less productive each week since the stunning win over Miami a month ago.

The running game is struggling to consistently keep drives going, and the passing attack isn’t making up for it. The O struggles to turn drives into points.

UTEP might not be perfect, but it won three of the last four games with the ground game taking over. Commit to the running game, don’t put the ball in the air where the velociraptors in the Blue Raider secondary can attack, and come up with a few takeaways, too.

– Game Previews, Predictions College | NFL

What’s Going To Happen

The Blue Raider win over Miami is beginning to look more and more flukish.

To be fair, UTSA, UAB, and WKU are there tough games, but Middle Tennessee wasn’t all that close in any of them even with all the takeaways.

UTEP has the ability to stall offensively, but it’s ground game will work. As long as it doesn’t turn the ball over more than three times and isn’t anything worse than -2 in turnover margin, UTEP will pull this off.

Florida Atlantic vs UTEP Game Preview

Why Florida Atlantic Will Win

Which Florida Atlantic team will show up?

Just when it seemed the season was all but dead and the team couldn’t catch a break, it came up with a brilliant defensive day in the 17-14 win over Rice to keep hopes of a bowl appearance alive.

The defense has to force takeaways – ten in the last four games – and UTEP will give them away with four turnovers in last week’s loss to Louisiana Tech and seven in the stunning loss to New Mexico.

The Miners struggle to move the ball on third downs thanks to an inefficient passing game, and …

– NFL Expert Picks, Week 7

Why UTEP Will Win

UTEP has a way of slowing things down and making teams play its style.

The defense has been great on third downs, the defense has forced multiple takeaways in four of the last five games, and the passing game can put up yards even if it’s painfully inconsistent.

As long as the Miners can be balanced and keep the chains moving they should be fine because …

– Game Previews, Predictions College | NFL

What’s Going To Happen

Florida Atlantic is a different team on the road. It’s 3-1 in Boca Raton – only losing to UCF – and 0-3 on the road.

Besides a tougher schedule, what’s been the difference? The Owls don’t run as well on the road. UTEP is hardly a brick wall, but with two weeks off to rest up and being back in the Sun Bowl for the first time since September 23rd the front line will hold up.

UTEP vs Louisiana Tech Game Preview

Why UTEP Will Win

The defense is getting the job done.

The Miners turned things around fast winning four of their last five with the running game getting rolling in the wins, the passing game suddenly becoming accurate, and the defense holding up with a brilliant day against Boise State, a great day against the run against Charlotte, and with eight takeaways in the three wins.

Louisiana Tech doesn’t do the ground game – outside of ripping up Stephen F. Austin – and it’s having a nightmare of a time with turnovers.

The Bulldogs have given it up 12 times in the three wins, they’re not stopping the run, and the passing attack that’s supposed to rock isn’t completing enough passes. But …

– NFL Expert Picks, Week 5

Why Louisiana Tech Will Win

Louisiana Tech is finally back home.

Missouri, Clemson, and South Alabama – don’t sneer, the Jaguars are strong. Those are the road dates, and now the Bulldogs finally get another chance to work in comfortable surroundings.

The passing game isn’t bad, but it has to start hitting passes on a consistent basis. There can’t be the forced throws that plagued the team on the road, UTEP only has three picks in six games, and the Miner offense has its turnover problems, too.

– Schedules, Previews College | NFL

What’s Going To Happen

The Miner defense is terrific, but Louisiana Tech gets a team its own size at home – it’s going to play like it.

It’ll give up enough turnovers to make this rough, but the UTEP offense won’t do enough to take advantage of the mistakes. There won’t be anything pretty about this game, but the Bulldogs will take the W no matter what.

UTEP vs Charlotte Game Preview

Why UTEP Will Win

The defense has settled in to become the best in Conference USA.

The offense might not be anything amazing, but QB Gavin Hardison hit 10-of-11 throws with a touchdown in the stunning 27-10 win over Boise State. It’s the D that got the job done allowing just 177 yards of total Bronco offense.

Charlotte has been wildly inconsistent offensively. It’s not getting much of a running game going, but that’s not the problem.

The defense is the worst in America allowing 560 yards per game. Everyone can move the ball without a problem, the pass defense is bad, the run D worse, and …

– NFL Expert Picks, Week 4

Why Charlotte Will Win

Charlotte gets to face a team that can’t do much of anything offensively. It could use the break.

Yeah, the UTEP defense was great against a struggling Boise State. It also cranked up good numbers against New Mexico and New Mexico State – it wasn’t all that wonderful against Oklahoma or North Texas.

Charlotte’s passing game is fine. At home, it should be able to get enough going to make UTEP press, there’s no Miner running game to worry about, and it shouldn’t take too many scoring drives to take over.

– Schedules, Previews College | NFL

What’s Going To Happen

The weather will make things a bit interesting.

The worst of the wind and rain should be out of Charlotte by Saturday evening. That won’t matter too much, but if it’s sloppy in any way – the field might not be perfect – Charlotte’s ability to run should matter.

The 49ers will still have problems against the ground game, but the midrange passing attack should be enough to keep pushing. UTEP’s offense won’t be able to do enough when it has its chances.

UTEP vs New Mexico Game Preview

Why UTEP Will Win

The Miners haven’t been able to recapture the glory and fun of last year, but it came through with a win over New Mexico State to try getting everything going.

Now it gets another team that should help out in a low scoring game.

The Miner defense struggled with North Texas and Oklahoma – not suprirrisng – but overall the team isn’t making a ton of mistakes, it was great against the Aggie passing game last week, and it should be able to hang with – if not hold down – a New Mexico offense that has to prove it can produce two games in a row.

However …

– CFN Expert Picks, Week 3

Why New Mexico Will Win

No, UTEP doesn’t have the same mojo.

It can’t push the ball down the field like it did when Jacob Cowing – now at Arizona – was the No. 1 target, and the running game isn’t there to rely on.

New Mexico couldn’t do anything offensively in the loss to Boise State last week, but the parts are there to pound away on a Miner run defense allowing over 200 yards per game and over five yards per carry.

The Lobo defense hasn’t been bad. It’s been good against the run, and it’s been great so far on third downs, and …

– Week 3 Schedule, Predictions, Game Preview

What’s Going To Happen

That’s where New Mexico wins this. It’s going to come up with the third down stops that UTEP won’t.

The Lobos allowed Maine and Boise State to convert just 5-of-28 third down chances, and UTEP won’t fare much better. In a low scoring fight, every possession will matter.

New Mexico State vs UTEP Game Preview

Why New Mexico State Will Win

It’s been a rough start for the Aggies, but UTEP is more of a fit than Nevada and Minnesota were.

Eventually the offense under Jerry Kill will start running well. The passing attack hasn’t clucked quite yet – to be nice about it – and the ground game didn’t get going well enough against Nevada and went nowhere against the Gophers.

The Aggies weren’t Oklahoma, but UTEP got hammered by the Sooners for 259 yards and four scores in last week’s 45-13 loss, and allowed four yards per carry in the 31-13 loss to North Texas.

New Mexico State has to give it a try because …

– CFN Expert Picks, Week 2

Why UTEP Will Win

There’s no New Mexico State passing game.

It gave it a shot against the Wolf Pack and came up with 218 yards, but the four interceptions were a killer. The O managed to hit just 4-of-13 throws against the Gophers.

UTEP, on the other hand, has the downfield passing game. There’s only one touchdown pass in the two games, but Gavin Hardison threw for 537 yards and a score, he’s go the ability to keep driving the ball down the field on the NMSU secondary, and …

– Week 2 Schedule, Predictions, Game Preview

What’s Going To Happen

UTEP has more of an offense, and the defense is better than it showed so far.

North Texas and Oklahoma were able to do whatever they wanted against the Miner defense, but the stops will come against the run.

UTEP will be balanced – it’ll be the best day of the year by for for the ground attack – and Hardison will at least match the 249 yards he threw for in last year’s 30-3 win.

Oklahoma vs UTEP Game Preview

Why UTEP Will Win

So what did the Miners do right in their 31-13 loss to North Texas?

The passing game showed off its playmakers.

Top target Jacob Cowing might be off to Arizona, but Tyrin Smith and Reynaldo Flores each rolled for over 120 yards and made a few deep plays, and QB Gavin Hardison threw for close to 293 yards with a score.

The Miner offensive line was good in pass protection against the Mean Green. The talent is there – it’s the best front five the program has had in a long, long time – and the defense managed to hold up well against he run.

But …

– Week 1 CFN College Football Expert Picks

Why Oklahoma Will Win

The UTEP offense wasn’t able to close.

It wasn’t bad on third downs against North Texas, and it actually won the total offense battle by a yard. However, the ground game never got working, North Texas came up with more consistent big plays down the field, and it was a 17-0 crash in the second half.

This is the game for the Oklahoma defense. It struggled last year, wasn’t consistent, and it can take some chances with the offense certain to get bombing fast.

New year, new players in several spots, new coach, new identity – to a point. The Sooners are going to try punishing on the lines, and …

– Week 1 Schedule, Predictions, Game Previews, Saturday

What’s Going To Happen

It’s Brent Venables – the new Oklahoma head coach will make sure his defense will come out breathing fire.

After struggling to get going over the last two years, this version will be terrific from the opening kickoff.

The Sooners will put this away easily in the first quarter, and the defense will take care of the rest with a big statement performance – even though it’ll give up a few points.

2022 Preseason CFN Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year

QB Frank Harris, Sr. UTSA

Last year it was RB Sincere McCormick – along with a solid defense – that took over on way to the Conference USA title and a breakthrough season for the UTSA program. The quarterback was pretty good, too.

The 6-0, 200-pound lefty was the main man leading the way, and now this is his team more than ever after two terrific seasons. Harris has connected on 66% of his career passes, kept the interceptions down with six in each of the last two years, and in 2021 he started hitting his deep throws a bit more. Combine all of that with over 1,200 rushing yards and 15 scores, and this might be his league, too.

2022 Preseason CFN Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year

LB KD Davis, Sr. North Texas

The 6-0, 229-pounder isn’t huge, and he might not have the build of a normal middle linebacker, but he’s got great range and he makes a whole lot of tackles.

The 2021 First Team and 2020 Honorable Mention All-Conference USA honoree made 284 tackles – leading Conference USA with 121 stops – with 11 sacks and 28 tackles for loss over the last three seasons for a team not known for its defense. In his fifth year, expect him to be even more disruptive.
