UTEP Miners have high hopes for College Basketball Invitational...

UTEP is hoping to end this season with an exclamation point, hoping to set the table for next season, and hoping to send senior Stefon Jackson out in a special way.

Anyone else think Tony Barbee will be one of the leading candidates for the Memphis job, if John Calipari get the Kentucky job.

Keep it up Miners! This is great post-season experience that can take UTEP basketball back into the national spotlight!

Never thought about it but people question that Barbee can't even coach his players here much less the fan base over there will be convinced as well

National Spotlight? I bet we will only get like ten seconds of spotlight on ESPN sports center when we win the CBI but if Oregon State wins it they will get like ten minutes and interview Obama as well and make a huge story about it....just because we are UTEP and we will never get the credit we deserve.

GO BEAV's!!! We're looking forward to that interview with Obama!!

Since moving here from Oregon I've enjoyed being able to go to Beaver games at the Sunbowl, but I think they might be overmatched this time. I've got my tickets for Weds. game and I think the Beav's are in for quite a surprise. My pick, Miners in 3.

oregon st going down!!!!

go Utep!!!

[Miner]

Let's go UTEP! Finish off the season great and win it Wednesday. As for the fans, go to the game and support the miners! Hopefully the Don Haskins Center will be raging with fans. Good luck, we all know you could take it all ;]

[Rooster]

They were at 8,000 plus when I got my ticket today. Not to mention the walk up, last minute El Paso crowd... I smell a sell out even more so if the Miners bust the Beavs tonight. OSU have only avg. 4000 for attendance in they're three CBI home games when the get to the Don with 12,000 they’ll !@# themselves.

I'm in Mesa, AZ, will the game be televised?
