Like the Don Haskins disciple that he is, UTEP head coach Tim Floyd says consistency and consistently-good defense are the reasons his Miners are winning big games.
"...The result was a rebounding bloodbath that the Miners were only too happy to claim. UTEP out-boarded ECU, 14-5, in the first half and by 20 in the game, 39-19..."
Conference USA and the Mountain West had a great idea -- get together and form a nationwide football-only super-conference that was sure to get an automatic BCS bid for its champion and good TV money.
Only problem was, they talked to the Big East about it.
UTEP head football coach Mike Price talks about the Miners come-from-behind win over East Carolina and previews this Saturday's game against Tulsa, jokingly saying he doesn't want the Golden Hurricane taking his team TOO seriously.
From Time Warner Cable Sports, here are UTEP's highlights from the Miners come-from-behind win over the East Carolina Pirates, including Joe Banyard's eventual game-winning 78-yard TD run.
Joe Banyard celebrated his birthday in grand fashion, as the senior running back scored on a 78-yard run in the fourth quarter to give UTEP a lead it would not relinquish.
UTEP head football coach talks about the Miners' disappointing 41-37 loss to Rice last Saturday and previews UTEP's game against East Carolina this Saturday night.
UTEP head football coach Mike Price discusses the disheartening loss to No. 25 Southern Miss. The Golden Eagles took advantage of some key Miner miscues in the fourth quarter to run away from UTEP, improving to 7-1.
Timing is everything -- including hilarious. Late in the fourth quarter as UTEP trailed SMU, 21-17, with the Miners backed up inside their own 5-yard line, Fox Sports Southwest chose to air a pre-taped segment that featured UTEP defensive coordinator Andre Patterson criticizing El Paso for not supporting Mike Price...as SMU stripped the football from the Miners in the end zone and fell on it for the game-sealing touchdown.
Puddle of Mudd is looking to the past for its new record.
Our friends from Fuzzy Red Panda Productions are busy working up the big intro video you'll see in the Sun Bowl next season before Mike Price waves that pickaxe and comes down those steps. Bonus is, they have running commentary underneath along with the "real" pics and vid they're using, taking us through how to make a first-rate video. Looking forward to this!
