As mentioned, these two old foes are quite familiar with each other. However, UTSA has had its way in this cross-state bedlam as of late as they have won three of their last four fixtures against the Miners. The previous two contests nonetheless were settled by four points in each of the collisions. Most recently, UTSA defeated UTEP 63-59 on the Miners’ court on February 10th. In doing so, UTSA covered a minute two-point line as the chalk.

However, 100% of both the cash action and the ticket action are coming in on Texas-San Antonio. In Over/Under markets, the figure has remained idle to reflect a lack of wagering action on either choice in this market.

Texas-El Paso vs. Texas-San Antonio Prediction 03/07/2018

If there were any venue to breed the unexpected, it would be a conference tournament on a neutral site with two teams that love to hate each other. As of late, the games have been extra competitive. The Miners will approach this contest with reckless abandon as they will be free-rolling as they enter. For all members of the Conference USA, a trip to March Madness on the line. While UTEP may not seem to be positioned to make a run, everything is one game at a time. Against a rival they are desperate to beat at a site where there is no clear-cut advantage, the Miners may be in a position here to orchestrate an upset given the low number next to UTSA as a favorite. We’ll play this one outright on the Money Line.
