A big advantage the UTEP football team will usually enjoy is that after winning one time in its last 24 games, the Miners can sneak up on opponents.

Not so with Houston Baptist.

Setting aside that the Huskies of the FCS have won twice in the last two years, this game for them is much like UTEP’s next week at Texas Tech in Jones Stadium.

This is HBU’s chance to take a swing at a bigger school, a bigger program on their home field in front of a bigger crowd than they usually see.
