2025 UTEP Football schedule

EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- UTEP just released its 2025 football schedule. The schedule features a return of the Battle of I-10 to the Sun City.

Tickets are on sale right now, including with a "reimagined" season ticketing process that places value on seats near "the field and the yard line." Also debuting this year, a Gold Deluxe section, located under the outdoor club seating. UTEP says that if you buy season tickets now, you will have the opportunity to renew your ticket at the same price for next year's return to the Mountain West Conference. Tickets start at $90.

“I’m really excited about our 2025 schedule,” UTEP Head Coach Scotty Walden said. “I’m especially ecstatic with having six home games this year and five of them being on Saturdays. I think the Saturday games are so crucial for our fan base to fill the Sun Bowl and getting the majority of our home games on Saturdays is a huge advantage.”
