Rodney Terry felt a major key for his UTEP men's basketball team to get its first road win was to play a complete 40 minutes against Middle Tennessee.

Not many Miners had that opportunity.

Terry was only able to coach for 33 minutes before getting ejected in Murfreesboro. Four of his players weren't around for the end either after fouling out, and UTEP fell in the 40th minute, 75-72.

There was a chance for another Jordan Lathon miracle, but his midcourt heave at the buzzer that could have tied the game hit the front of the rim.
