UTEP Miners (1-3) vs Boise State Broncos (2-1)
Friday, September 23, 2022 at 9:00 pm
UTEP can’t run the ball. Worse yet, it can’t get the chains moving.
The two tie together – it can’t run, so it sets up more difficult third-down chances, and the lack of a steady passing game then shows up.
Oddly enough, the best passing day so far completion-wise was against Oklahoma, but that was the only time in the four games the Miners managed to hit more than 45% of their throws.
Boise State’s defense is outstanding on third downs, and it’s been dominant against the run over the last few games. It gave up 25 yards to New Mexico, and 26 to UT Martin.
