UTEP announces promotion schedule for 2023 football season
UTEP’s annual attempt to sell out the Sun Bowl will be on Sept. 23 when the Miners take on old WAC rival UNLV, the school announced when it released its promotion schedule Monday.
That game will also pay tribute to the military, first responders, medical personnel and teachers and is the designated 915 Heroes Night.
The Miners home opener against Incarnate Word on Sept. 2 is ‘80s night, when UTEP will have a 12-hour window Tuesday (this Tuesday, May 16) where fans can buy tickets for $7 and $12 in select sections, which corresponds to ticket prices four decades ago. Those discounted tickets are available online at www.utepminers.com and at 915-747-UTEP.
The Sept. 29 game against Louisiana Tech is Noche Latino night. The Oct. 18 game against New Mexico State will mark the 100th edition of UTEP’s oldest rivalry, which began in 1914, two days before France and Britain declared war on the Ottoman Empire in World War I.
The Nov. 4 game against Western Kentucky is homecoming, while the Nov. 25 game against Liberty is Fan Appreciation Night.
