When Abilene Christian ventures into the Sun Bowl to take on UTEP on Saturday, the game will be one of the more unique Division I games ever played, which is apt for one of the most unique years in college sports.
The Wildcats are kicking off their fourth season under coach Adam Dorrel and its eighth in the Division I FCS, and will be playing their first game of the year against a UTEP team playing its third.
“I’ve never been involved in something like that,” Dorrel said.
“I don’t know if that’s ever happened,” UTEP coach Dana Dimel said.
