Right side of line shuffles for UTEP

UTEP's offensive line was always supposed to be a strong point, but as the season hits the midpoint, it's being sent in for an overhaul.

In the wake of a string of holding penalties that have hamstrung an offense that ranks last in Conference USA and 125th nationally in scoring, the entire right side of the line, from center to tackle, appears set to change in advance of the Miners' must-win game against Florida International.

Coach Sean Kugler didn't want to give specifics and said the line will be a work in progress throughout the week, but the first look Tuesday gave a glimpse of where the Miners are beginning their preparation.
