It’s been a long 10 years.
That’s how long it’s been since the Aggies last won in the Sun Bowl against UTEP. Check out the highlights here.
Thankfully, that streak was broken Saturday as the offense did just enough and the defense and special teams carried the team to a 27-20 victory over the rival Miners despite being out-gained 429-311, out first-downed 24-15 and losing time of possession 40:48-19:12.
This game was really lost by the Miners’ own mistakes that started early and remained throughout the game.
UTEP would get the opening kickoff and go three and out, forcing a punt at their own 29.
