DENTON - The North Texas football team's game with UTEP scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 31, has been postponed due to surging cases of COVID-19 in El Paso. The teams are working together to reschedule the game, and Conference USA will assist both teams with the schedule change.Â
The decision to postpone the game follows the issuance of a stay-at-home order as new, daily positive test rates have reached critical levels in El Paso.
"We are disappointed to have our first postponement of a Conference USA game, but the health and safety of our student-athletes, staff and coaches is our number one priority,"Â said UNT President Neal Smatresk. Â "We send our best wishes to the entire El Paso community as they face the challenge of dealing with the latest outbreak."
