UTEP squeaks out 5 OT win: Three Things We Learned

We’ve seen glimpses of his potential this season, but true freshman Walter Dawn introduced himself to Conference USA on Saturday.

Dawn broke wide open on the third quarter trick play, and shook two UTSA defensive backs all while sprinting 48-yards on the 71-yard hook up from Kavika Johnson which tied things up at 28.

Kudos to Brent Pease for that ballsy call by the way, it swung the tide UTEP’s direction in my opinion.

Sean Kugler has said since the Texas game he has wanted to get Dawn more involved in the offense, but he broke out in important moments on Saturday.
