3:00–16:00 | UTEP recap (51-0)

Tierani sandwich (pos/neg/pos)

Pos: Special teams continued last year’s form; younger kickers got reps. Coach Deacon on the postgame mic is a good sign.

Neg: UTEP moved the ball more than she liked even though the kicker missed three FGs. Venables clip of him going off on the defense — “it ain’t good enough” — is exactly the standard she wants.

Pos: 51 points and a real run game. John Mateer looked solid (not great, not bad) in his first game back.

Chad on offense

Ben Arbuckle lived in 12/13 personnel (52 of 57 snaps); first TD was 14 personnel (four TEs + FB). Exactly what fans were promised after camp.
