moni Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Texas-El Paso Miners vs New Mexico State Aggies, 6pm tonight @ Aggie Stadium. Annual Battle of the Interstate and the Miners are favored to win.Our local Las Cruces Sun-News has a special wrap-around section covering all aspects of this game. El Paso's KVIA has a video of the local Friday night high school games and a mention of the I-10 rivalry . Something interesting from the "other" side of the State.http://www.kvia.com/Global/category.asp?C=...p;nav=menu193_4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moni Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 Y'all lost!?! Way to represent the conference. Thanks for nothing.Yes, NMSU won the I-10 rivalry and now have bragging rights for a whole year! Actually, El Paso media had said that NM was a 6 point favorite, but the NM media just wanted a win, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidtownCoog Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Gotta love that Aggy OOC schedule! Montana State, Fresno State and Louisana Monroe. Wowza!I don't know how you can proudly drive your maroon Honda with a schedule like that. Look for Miami to hand you your hat this Thursday.

WestGrayGuy Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Oh come on now....A&M is playing AT Miami, AT Nebraska and AT Oklahoma. That is tough enough.... We need those cream puffs to pad our schedule so we can get to a bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KinkaidAlum Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 "Conference" USA does suck. Big 12 rocks!yeah, the mighty Big 12...Baylor shut out by TCU.Northern Iowa (I-AA) and Kent State beat Iowa State in Ames.Okie State making Troy State look like the best team in the South.In the big BCS match-ups, the Big 12 has mostly flopped... See;Colorado losing to Arizona State and Florida StateKansas State losing to Auburn (AUB hasn't beaten anyone else)Nebraska getting humiliated at home by USCOkie State getting clobbered by GeorgiaThat said, Baylor, Texas, Texas ATM, and Texas Tech STILL haven't faced a single BCS team in out of conference play yet!

fromsc2tx Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Big 12. Yawn. The latest conference to join the ranks of the other creampuff conferences (Pac 10, Big East, MAC, WAC, CUSA). Big 10 is on the verge of following suit.The SEC is where it's at. Hell, I prefer the ACC even! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumber2 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I went to a Miners game when I was working in El Paso several years back. I froze my East Texas butt off in that stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
