What to Know

The UTSA Roadrunners and the Middle Tenn. Blue Raiders will face off in a Conference USA clash at 8 p.m. ET Sept. 25 at Alamodome. UTSA is the favorite in this one, with an expected 7-point margin of victory.

The Roadrunners were able to grind out a solid victory over the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks last week, winning 24-10. UTSA's QB Frank Harris was on fire, passing for one TD and 269 yards on 36 attempts in addition to rushing for two TDs and 104 yards. Harris' longest connection was to WR Joshua Cephus for 35 yards in the first quarter.

Meanwhile, Middle Tenn. has to be hurting after a devastating 47-14 defeat at the hands of the Troy Trojans last week. Middle Tenn. was down 40-7 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. One thing holding Middle Tenn. back was the mediocre play of QB Asher O'Hara, who did not have his best game: despite one touchdown, he threw one interception and fumbled the ball once with only 4.74 yards per passing attempt.

UTSA's win lifted them to 2-0 while Middle Tenn.'s loss dropped them down to 0-2. Giving up four turnovers, the Blue Raiders had had trouble holding onto the ball. We'll see if the Roadrunners can exploit that vulnerability.
