The Memphis Tigers have been responsible for two of the most heartbreaking losses for the UTEP program over the past three years. The first, in 2007, with a bowl game looming, the Tigers came into the Sun Bowl and ruined Senior Night for the Miners. Then again last year, after a huge upset over ranked Houston, UTEP came out flat and were beat by a determined Memphis team.

Saturday night, Mike Price and his team hope to make up for those upsetting losses with a big win in conference play.
