UTEP Miners Football Tickets

About UTEP Miners Football

The UTEP Miners have represented the University of Texas at El Paso on the football field since 1914, when the school was still the State College of Mines and Metallurgy, and the mining nickname has stuck ever since. The Miners play at the Sun Bowl, the 1963 stadium that also hosts the annual Sun Bowl game each December, and their history includes a Border Conference title in 1956, a Western Athletic Conference championship in 2000 and 15 bowl appearances. After two decades in Conference USA, UTEP joined the Mountain West Conference for the 2026 season, opening a new era under third-year head coach Scotty Walden with a roster rebuilt almost entirely through the transfer portal.
