Which UTEP Miners games are worth watching in 2026?
The September 19 road trip to Michigan Stadium against Big Ten member Michigan is the biggest stage of the year — a Power Four opponent in front of a crowd exceeding 107,000, and the only FBS-level non-conference game on the schedule. Broadcast nationally on Big Ten Network at 3:30 PM ET, this contest represents UTEP's highest-profile non-league matchup and a measuring stick against elite competition. The September 26 home game against Oregon State carries extra significance as the 94th Homecoming contest, with MW+ streaming available for the Pac-12 opponent in the program's first-ever meeting against the Beavers.
The Sun Bowl hosts six games that define the Mountain West race. The home opener against Texas Southern on September 12 kicks off the home slate at 9:00 PM ET, followed by three FOX Network broadcasts — Nevada (October 10), Hawai'i (November 7), and Wyoming (November 14) — with times to be announced 12 days before each game. The Hall of Fame Game against San Jose State on October 17 renews a series last played in 2004, with MW+ providing exclusive streaming coverage. The regular season concludes with a road trip to Northern Illinois on November 28, where the Huskies joined the Mountain West from the MAC, making this a crucial late-season conference contest with bowl implications. UTEP has one bye week on October 24.
