Week 8 brings us a Wednesday night matchup in El Paso, Texas, at Sun Bowl Stadium when the UTEP Miners welcome the New Mexico State Aggies. New Mexico State enters this week at 4-3 overall after winning two straight weeks following a road loss at Hawaii. UTEP enters this week with a lot of momentum after picking up its first conference win of the year last week with a victory over FIU a team New Mexico State defeated earlier in the year as well. The Aggies sit at 2-1 in conference play, while the Miners come in at 1-2. A win here for UTEP could help it catch NMSU in the conference standings as it continues to build on the momentum from last week. This game should be better than most expect given that UTEP is 1-1 against New Mexico State in their last two meetings. The Aggies' run game and quarterback play with Pavia are just too good, and they should be able to dominate the time of possession in this one. We like NMSU to play well and cover this line Wednesday night.
