In less than 40 days, the UTEP football team will drive to Norman, Oklahoma, to take on the Sooners, which means that football season is just around the corner. As August creeps in, the Miners will travel to Ruidoso, New Mexico, for their annual camp.
In this time the coaches get to tweak final gears, finalize depth charts and prepare for the regular season, whereas months previous were about strength and conditioning.
The Miners will head out to Ruidoso on Aug. 7 and start practice on Aug. 8. They will have two scrimmages, Aug. 13 and 20 at 8:45 a.
