At the Alamodome, the UTSA Roadrunners showcased an impressive offensive performance against the Bulls.

The ground attack was equally effective for the Roadrunners as they rushed for an additional 224 yards and scored four touchdowns. Their longest rush broke free for an impressive run of 40 yards that also found its way into the end zone. This multifaceted offense led to them achieving first downs on thirty occasions through both rushing and passing plays.


Defensively, UTSA made their presence felt by intercepting two passes from their opponents and returning them for a combined total of twenty-one yards. They also recorded one sack during the game which resulted in lost yardage for South Florida.
