2025 Week 11 Preview: UTSA Roadrunners at South Florida Bulls
South Florida and UTSA square off on Thursday night in what promises to be a clash of high-powered offenses as the American Conference title race intensifies.
South Florida Bulls Overview
South Florida (6-2, 3-1 American) returns from a bye week, seeking to rebound after its first conference setback in October. The Bulls are heavy two-touchdown favorites at home in this nationally televised matchup.
UTSA Roadrunners Outlook
UTSA (4-4, 2-2 American) comes into the contest riding momentum from a dominant 48-26 victory over Tulane last Thursday. The Roadrunners aim to disrupt another title contender and showcase their renewed energy.
“This was the team the Roadrunners envisioned at the beginning of the year when retaining offensive stars like Owen McCown, Robert Henry Jr., and Devin McCuin.”
Their performance against Tulane displayed the offensive potential head coach Jeff Traylor has been building. However, the setting now changes dramatically.
Home vs. Away Performance
- UTSA holds a perfect 24-0 record at home under Jeff Traylor, including two Conference USA Championship wins.
- On the road, though, the Roadrunners have struggled, posting a 1-10 record over their last 11 regular-season away games.
- Their offense has scored 36+ points in all four home matchups this season, compared to 24 or fewer in all away contests.
South Florida will try to capitalize on UTSA’s road woes and take another crucial step toward its first American Conference Championship appearance.
