2025 Week 11 Preview: UTSA Roadrunners @ South Florida Bulls
South Florida and UTSA face off Thursday night in a showdown between two potent offenses as the American Conference title race intensifies. South Florida (6-2, 3-1 American), coming off a bye week, aims to recover from its first conference loss last month. The Bulls enter as two-touchdown favorites while hosting the game.
UTSA (4-4, 2-2 American) approaches the matchup energized after a dominant 48-26 win over Tulane last Thursday. The Roadrunners look to disrupt another conference contender, while South Florida pursues its first-ever American Conference Championship.
UTSA's Rising Potential
Last week, UTSA showed the team they expected at season start, led by offensive stars Owen McCown, Robert Henry Jr., and Devin McCuin. This breakout performance came at the Alamodome, where the Roadrunners are formidable under head coach Jeff Traylor.
- UTSA is undefeated (24-0) in conference home games during Traylor's tenure
- They have won two Conference USA Championship Games at home
- However, on the road, the team struggles with a 1-10 record in the last 11 regular season away games
The offense particularly shines at home, scoring 36 or more points in all four games this season at the Alamodome, but has produced 24 points or fewer in each of their four road games.
“UTSA unearthed its true potential last Thursday night, thoroughly dominating Tulane, for all 60 minutes of action.”
This contrast highlights the challenge UTSA faces in sustaining their recent momentum away from home against a strong Bulls team.
Matchup Outlook
South Florida aims to capitalize on their home advantage and maintain momentum to secure a key victory in the conference race. UTSA must overcome its road struggles to keep its championship hopes alive.
This clash will be a crucial test in the race for the American Conference title.
