The Rush is a podcast brought to you by SB Nation and MinerRush.com, with Alex Nicolas and Anthony Salom talking all things UTEP and Conference USA sports.
In this episode we'll discuss the current state of UTEP and C-USA basketball, including the conference's NCAA and NIT tournaments outlooks and bubble watch. This week, the Miners will take on Louisiana Tech and Southern Miss, with the game against La Tech possible determing the league's regular season champion, and the conference tournament's #1 seed.
The first 15 minutes we open with a little football talk as spring practices start next Monday, we look at five big questions heading into an important spring period.
Then the rest of the show is all UTEP and C-USA hoops, with the big LA Tech v. UTEP match up as the main talking point. And course we take a look around the C-USA Power Rankings, and Thursday's scheduled games.
