Time is starting to run out on the UTEP football team, there isn't room for a step back, but for the first time in a month, that felt like the direction after a 30-3 loss to a Middle Tennessee team that was the softest part left of the schedule.
The best team in the Conference USA West, North Texas, awaits, a program that two seasons ago bottomed out with a loss to the Miners that left it at 1-11 and stamped it as one of the worst programs in the country. They got a new coach in Seth Littrell, and well, insert obvious analogy to hope here.
