Nevada Vs Utep is set for Saturday, October 10, at Sun Bowl Stadium, with both sides looking to stop three-game losing streaks and get moving in the right direction. Kickoff is scheduled for 17:00 p.m. MT, which is 16:00 p.m. PT, and the game will be shown on FS1.
This is a useful one for viewers as well as both coaching staffs. Nevada enters at 1-3 and is still searching for its first Mountain West victory after opening conference play, while UTEP comes in at 1-4 and is trying to claim its first conference win of the season.
What to know before Nevada Vs Utep
UTEP's most recent outing ended in a 61-7 loss to New Mexico in its Mountain West opener. The bright spot for the Miners was backup quarterback Raymond Moore III, who scored UTEP's lone touchdown with an 86-yard run and finished with a career-high 135 rushing yards.
Starting quarterback EJ Colson completed six of 12 passes for 45 yards before leaving in the third quarter, while linebacker Shay Smith recorded eight tackles. Those are the main numbers UTEP will want to build on as it looks for a better showing at home.
Nevada arrives after a narrow loss
Nevada comes into the game off a bye week after falling 36-33 to Air Force in double overtime. Running back Herschel Turner posted 111 yards and two touchdowns in that game, while linebacker EJ Smith delivered a massive defensive workload with 21 tackles and now leads the nation with 55 tackles this season.
That combination of production on both sides of the ball makes Nevada a dangerous opponent, even if the record is still 1-3. The Wolf Pack will see this as a chance to reset their conference season, while UTEP will be just as focused on ending its skid.
