It's really hard to blow a 42-17 lead with just 20 minutes left in a game, but the Roadrunners found a way to blow it. The explanation for the shocking letdown is simple -- UTSA fell victim to the same exact same issues that they haven't been able to address all season long. Now a loaded Memphis roster comes to town looking to take advantage of an injury-sticked UTSA secondary.

Injuries forced UTSA to play the young guns against FAU, and the underclassmen showed up in a big way. UTSA played their cleanest and most complete game of the season, but is is a sustainable improvement for the struggling team? Taking care of business on a road trip to Tulsa is the next step towards bowl eligibility.

Both UTSA and FAU come into this weekend contest with 2-4 records, as the two program's winning head coaches have struggled to get their team in the win column this season.

The Rice Owls defeated the UTSA Roadrunners for the first time in a decade, as a miracle catch lifted the home team to victory in the final seconds. It was a gut punch, but honestly a fitting ending for a team that didn't deserve to win given their school-record 16 penalties. Even more concerning was the team's poor behavior after the loss, as the team escalated some taunting from a Rice player into a full-blown brawl.

The Roadrunners will travel to Rice this week to try to find some confidence and a pulse on offense. Rice's offense is every bit as points-challenged as UTSA's so don't expect fireworks in Houston on Saturday. Can UTSA play clean and let their talent flourish?

ECU did all they could to give UTSA a chance to win this conference opener, but UTSA's offense squandered chance after chance to tie the game in the second half. Penalties and mental miscues spelled UTSA's doom once again, as a great game from the defense went to waste.

UTSA welcomed Houston Christian to the Alamodome this past weekend and used the opportunity against an FCS opponent to sharpen their approach on both sides of the ball. While it wasn't a perfectly clean showing, the Roadrunners handled business and mostly looked good doing it as UTSA dominated in the trenches and created explosive plays.

Following the victory, rumors were buzzing that a move to the Pac 12 was imminent for the athletics program. That didn't come to be, as UTSA affirmed their commitment to the AAC alongside Memphis, Tulane, and USF. We talk about why that may likely end up being the right decision.

Lastly, we preview UTSA's upcoming road trip to face a very tough ECU team that looks a lot like UTSA this year. The Roadrunners are a slight underdog to the Pirates, a team that has blown three score leads in consecutive weeks. This is going to be a fun one, folks!

Best 56-7 loss ever? Yeah, Texas really was that good. But the Roadrunners played pretty well within their own abilities. The run game bounced back, the defense played tough up front, and the effort was better across the board. This loss could be a building block for better things if UTSA can flourish against Houston Christian this week.
