Betting Line: FAU -3
Series History: UTEP leads 1-0
It’s November and FAU is in the all too familiar position of having to play spoiler. After snapping a seven game losing streak to Rice, this week they will play another Texas school as UTEP will make the long flight from El Paso to South Florida.
Despite a losing record at 3-6, the Miners still have a lot to play as they must win out in order qualify for a bowl game and they will enter this week’s matchup with some confidence after taking care of an FCS team last week.
