The Battle of I-10 is a big game for all the wrong reasons

The Aggies and the Miners are getting set to square off once again in the 96th meeting between the two schools, which may possibly be the biggest AND most meaningless game played between the rivals in the series’ history.

How’s that?

Well, both teams enter the contest winless, which makes it pretty meaningless if you are an outsider looking in. However, if you’re a fan of one of these teams (which I’m sure you are if you’re reading this) you’ll know NM State is coming in disappointed, with a new quarterback and hoping to get things back on track; and if you’re UTEP, you are hoping to break a long losing streak that dates back to November 26, 2016.
