UTEP is in an unprecedented position Saturday when it plays Middle Tennesse e as a 3-point favorite in the Sun Bowl.
The Miners have not been favored to beat an FBS team this year, but that changes when they take the field with a former fourth-team quarterback against a Blue Raider team that is 2-6.
UTEP is likely going to give true freshman JP Pickles his first career start, a week after he made his college football debut in a 14-10 loss to Louisiana Tech.
The Miners offense hasn’t had much success this year, as it ranks 117th out of 133 teams nationally in total offense, but perhaps the matchup will help. Middle Tennessee ranks 127th in total defense.
