** 2024 Opponent Preview : UTEP (Game 1) **

If any of you are bored here is new UTEP head coach Scotty Walden's 2023 Austin Peay team in their FCS playoff game against Chattanooga. Looks like they ran a lot of shotgun on offense, spread out the field a bit.

Also I'm ready for Saturday already. Beat UTEP, go 1-0. 




 
Almost looks like someone did a screenshot when they activated Google Lens, which can pull text etc. from a picture. 

 
Unpopular opinion: I prefer 11am starts, and this was an 11am start type game, so it's a missed opportunity.

I get too excited and don't want to wait. I want to wake up and the game is about to start.

(Also, we are leaving on our road trip at 2:30).

I agree, especially for the season opener.

 
Word is their coach isn't afraid to surprise onside kick.  
Plot twist: we all turn on our TV's Saturday and it's just Scott Frost in Groucho glasses.

This may be unpopular but IMO I completely agree and I think a lot of other fans do, as well.

I've actually always preferred 11 a.m. games because then it makes me feel like I have more of a Saturday. 2:30/6pm games fill the day with a lot of anxious anticipation.

When I am going to the game, I really prefer a later start time.  Otherwise, I like the 11am games as well.  

 
From the UTEP website:

THE HISTORY VS. POWER CONFERENCE TEAMS
UTEP is 0-38 all-time versus power conference programs since 1998 (inception of BCS). The Miners stand 1-59 against schools from power conferences, with the lone victory coming against SEC member Ole Miss (14-7) in the 1967 Sun Bowl.
