UTEP defensive end Jadrian Taylor, right tackle Jeremiah Byers and kicker Gavin Baechle headline the seven players honored to the All-Conference USA list, along with 12 more honorable mentions, per the league on Tuesday.

On a beautiful Saturday afternoon in the Sun Bowl, UTEP pulled out a close win over conference foe Florida Atlantic after a game-winning field goal by kicker Gavin Baechle.

The highly anticipated North Texas opener was met with much disappointment for Miner fans. Players and coaches are determined to prove themselves to the UTEP faithful, but on-field improvements might have to wait until next week's Battle of I-10.

The UTEP football squad has kicked off spring ball practices ahead of their highly anticipated 2022 season.

Rejoice Miner fans. UTEP is bowl eligible for the first time since 2014.
