UTEP has sold around 24,000 tickets for Saturday’s clash with UTSA. There’s a lot of confidence within the athletic department for a crowd well over 30,000, and maybe more given the walk-up nature with which they usually sell tickets. Sun Bowl capacity is 51,500.
Correction: Sun Bowl capacity is now 45,971 after renovations for the new club seating. 51,500 is still the number listed on the UTEP website, but just shy of 46K is the accurate number.

Check the capacity again, it is much lower than that with the removal of bench seats and for the modifications made for soccer. It is probably shy of 49,000
