The Rise of UTSA Football
Vložit

- There is no secret that football is important to the state of Texas, and every convincing win or close loss is felt that much more throughout any program or franchise in the state. While recently the expectations and attention has been on programs such as Texas, Texa A&M, Baylor, and recently TCU, it has been San Antonio’s own UTSA Roadrunners that have been one of the more consistent teams in all of College Football. UTSA’s football program is one of the youngest in the FBS, where it began play in 2011. Since the start of the 2021 season, the Roadrunners have won 23 games, captured two conference titles, and are on their way to the American Athletic Conference led by Head Coach Jeff Traylor, who signed a massive long term extension with the team last year. Their recent rise has been one of the more surprising turnarounds in Group of 5 Football, and in today’s video, we’ll be looking at the Rise of UTSA Football, examining how they got this far, and looking at what could be next for the program.

Great video. I’m from San Antonio and this is just the beginning for Utsa football. San Antonio is the 7 largest city in America and this is OUR pro team. Games are electric. I’m excited to see how much farther the program will grow after this move to the AAC. GO RUNNERS
Florida fan here but I definitely believe that the American Conference is about to be maybe even more competitive despite UCF, Houston, and Cincinnati leaving. From Tulane on the rise out of nowhere, Memphis is always pretty solid, East Carolina looks decent (a little potential they could be on the rise), and the new additions they’ll have with UTSA, UAB, and North Texas that could make immediate impacts in the conference, it’s going to be very interesting with how the conference goes moving forward. I mean they’re already the best Group Of Five conference that only got better. Charlotte, FAU, and Rice might take some time but I would make the argument that even the worst teams in the conference could still be having no fewer than 3 wins a season.
@@lakerskid2013UCF, Houston, and Cincinnati leaving is a benefit to the competitiveness of the American, not a detriment
Fact UTSA can go toe to toe with P5 schools on their earliest years is impressive...coming out with wins too!
Fact nUTSAck just got blown out by a power 5 school.
They should have beat ASU
@@ReisterJPbro. I are you the guy that comments this on every video? Why do you search out UTSA just to bitch… seems like you’re obsessed bubba.
Respect to UTSA y'all make it to the Power 5 one day.
With all these crazy moves 2028 is a real possibility
As an Oregon fan I just want to thank the Roadrunners in advance for Will Stein. My gut tells me he's only gonna double down on the success Dillingham brought us at OC last year. Hell, he already locked in Austin Novosad for us and the dude had barely unpacked his bags!
Yes sir, glad a very good Power 5 team got him! Good luck in y’all’s upcoming season!! God Bless and Birds Up!!🤙🏽
Yall are lucky. if yall have a good qb he’ll make him into a star
update took our WR1. little bitter but GL next season.
Every Oregon fan I see I bring this up lol, I’m actually glad yall appreciate him because we miss him
A big part to UNT beating UTSA when undefeated was due to it raining and limiting UTSA passing attack.
Yup 100%
They got on their knees tonight like the h town 🐓 🍭 they are
My cousin is one of the assistant coaches on the UTSA staff. The last two years have been awesome. Attended several games,and I'm looking forward to going this season. Definitely a team on the rise!
Hahaha you cousin needs to look for a new job maybe UTEP will hire him.
This is my first semester at UTSA, and in some of my classes I’ve met dudes that just transferred here from other schools thanks to the portal, im hyped for this upcoming season as I think the team is going to be a sleeper.
Just found your channel. I really enjoy your commentary. Im a writer for a sports website and im always looking for unbiased takes on things, with a logical approach. You are fantastic. Keep going, brother.
You're back! 🎉
Been saying this for a minute now, but UTSA is the next UCF. Just watch!
I believe them to be dark horse CFP contenders this year.
@@DCgames12345 dark horse or lame mule?
@@ReisterJP lame mule 😂😭
I want UTSA to keep an eye on QB Malik Murphy 6-5 230 Texas. The reason is we already have two high profiled QB's in Quinn Ewers and Arch Manning. Not much playing time for Murphy. Just my personal opinion 🤘
Facts I hope this happens
He back!
Great vid
The 🐐 is back
Some of us longtime CFB observers have pointed to this program as being something to watch. My moment of conversion came when Arizona State narrowly escaped SA with a win. I predicted a Power 5 win for the following year, and the Roadrunners proceeded to deliver. Look at 'em now; great story similar to the rise of Boise State in the aughts. Lots of good decisions behind this phenomenon. Keep it going, UTSA. You are what is right about the sport. I'd like to see how the 'Runners would fare at the Big House, in the near future.
Thank u 🙏🏽
He’s finally back
Good luck. Hopefully they play Tulsa in the AAC finals
Think I'll be going to the UTSA v Texas State tomorrow.
5:35 wait this is wrong. We down get a bowl game in 2016. It was New Mexico in Albuquerque. It was a defining moment for us. Literally wearing the jacket.
As a season ti key holder since 2014, saying “turn around” is funny. No diss or anything but I remember saying to my extended family (Baylor fans, me as well, but when UTSA came around they became the #1) in 2015/16 they are something special. People forget the powerhouseLA tech, used to be up until 2017. UTSA played with so many goood teams early on and hung in. They should have beat ASU. It wasn’t a turn around, traylor boosted our momentum.
If UTSA had started their program 10 years earlier they might have gotten into the big 12 with or over houston. A really good program.
If the Pac12 adds a pod in the southwest including SMU, Rice, Tulane, UTSA would be the best choice. R1 research university and good football. That would make 6 or 8 schools in the Pac12, depending on what Stanford and Cal decide to do. Then the Pac12 adds Mt West schools to get to 12, 14 or 16 teams.
Lol the PAC-4 is gone for good
@@brianvillatoro6588 It is easy to think that, but as long as there is a Pac, there are also contracts tied to them. The current Pac 4 and what I shall call the LaTX 4 that are mentioned above would be a solid conference with the addition of the best MW teams. Certainly SDSU and UNLV for their markets, and CSU & AFA to round out the dozen would be a very viable conference on a par with ACC football (less Clemson and FSU, obviously). The Pac thus has a very finite window to figure all of this out, but they have probably hired the best guy to help get it done. Kliavkoff is toast. Luck is the de facto CEO of the Pac, for now.
Da going good
Can you do s video on the hawkeyes?
Let's go birdsup baby🤙
By the way, can you do South Carolina again
Please do a Rise of App State video.
Definitely in the plans for sure
1-0

6:06 I was one of the 14 K lol
Lets gooo
Hahahahahaha nUTSAck is looking good 1-3 i thought i was watching UTEP.
@@ReisterJP idk, I'm watching a UTSA 3rd string QB COOKING Tennessee in the second half with all of the bills starters in 😭😂💀
That is why they are losing? they are playing the Bill's an NFL team?
@@itsrab100 45-14 is cooking
@@ReisterJP it's just trash points right now. Not worried. With UTSA playing with most of there Offense weapons out for this game and our future QB found, UTSA looking real good 😂 idk what team you go for but it don't matter cuz I'm sure it's a since you on a video about UTSA. UTSA stays rent free for you 💀💀💀
Whose here now they've won their first bowl game?
UTSA will beat Tennessee book it
Hahahahahahahaha!!!! Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!

One of the worst SOS in FBS for years running, no top 25 wins in program history, and never won a bowl game in program history. Let's keep grounded UTSA fanboys.
I mean the schedules were made when the team wasn’t as good, but yeah the no ranked wins is something that still needs to be overcome. I know bowls don’t matter that much, but it still is disappointing to have only ever lost them
one can argue the team was never good they just play weak opponents.
@@ReisterJP yeah weak opponents like A&M, Texas, Baylor, Illinois, and Tennessee next year. We're a decade old bro, give us some time. at least we're being competitive when we play P5 teams and have some P5 wins under our belt. Most Gof5 teams that play up get blown out every time. Hating for no reason lmao
@@bricetriplett759 it only took Liberty 3 years for a top 25 win. Utsa is 11 years without one
Liberty is also 3-1 in bowl games utsa is 0-4.
