UTEP Miners Football has been part of El Paso, Texas since 1914, a program shaped by desert sunsets and the roar from Sun Bowl Stadium. Set against the Franklin Mountains, game days bring panoramic views, booming horns from the Sound of the Southwest, and tailgates that feel like a neighborhood block party. The atmosphere is electric, friendly, and proudly 915.

The Miners’ legacy includes the 1956 Border Conference crown, a shared WAC title in 2000, and five Sun Bowl victories, capped by a 14-7 win over Ole Miss in 1967 behind quarterback Billy Stevens. Fans also celebrate modern greats like Aaron Jones. The Battle of I-10 with New Mexico State adds century-long bragging rights, complete with the Silver Spade and Brass Spittoon. Whether you sit low or high, Sun Bowl Saturdays make every seat feel like part of the action.
