The Breakdown
Injuries at quarterback, disappointment, and a losing records both stare UTEP and Middle Tennessee in the face heading into Saturday’s tilt.
Except for Middle Tennessee, there is still small hopes for a bowl berth in 2017 coming into Saturday’s matchup with a 3-5 overall record.
2017 was supposed to a year in where Middle Tennessee put up eye popping offensive numbers, and competed for a C-USA title, but injury to stud quarterback Brent Stockstill has derailed those plans.
Stockstill, who threw for over 7,000 combined yards the past two seasons has only played in two games this year, and his back up John Urza was forced to end his football career due to a major concussion.
