And the journey, this journey with a heavy burden, continues.
UTEP, lugging an unwanted and elephant-heavy 11-game losing streak on its back, will try its luck against Southern Miss Saturday afternoon at 3 p.m. MST at Reed Green Coliseum in Hattiesburg.
And, perhaps the Miners have found a place to shed that unwanted baggage. Perhaps.
The Miners are 2-12 overall and 0-2 in Conference USA play. Southern Miss is 4-10 and 1-1 in conference action. Certainly, the Golden Eagles know the weight of the Miner woes. Southern Miss had a nine game losing streak going into Thursday night's game against UTSA.
