Once again, UTEP football coach Dana Dimel began a game week by expressing optimism the Miners will play at UTSA this weekend.
He did that a week ago when Florida International was slated to come to El Paso, though he now admits that was just a front. But this time, Dimel says he really is optimistic a UTSA team that couldn't play last week because of COVID-19 will be ready for UTEP.
That makes him optimistic this game won't see the same fate of three of the Miners' previous four games, which were postponed or canceled.
