Written Thu Nov 5, before the Owls game.

UTSA reaches tonight at 6-1, with a 3-0 home record and a 3-1 road mark. Its latest result was a 42-19 win at Tulane. That followed home wins over Navy and South Florida and a road win at Rice. The loss at Texas remains its only defeat.

The Tulane game showed the running game’s depth. Will Henderson III gained 102 yards and scored a rushing touchdown, while A’Marion Peterson added two rushing scores. Owen McCown remains the starting quarterback. His late drive against South Florida included a third-down scramble, and the current receiver chart keeps David Amador II and Mekhi Anderson in starting spots.

Defensively, UTSA held Tulane to 67 rushing yards and 332 total yards. Owen Pewee contributed three sacks in that win. Jeff Traylor’s staff also has Rick Bowie coordinating the offense. The published team depth chart lists shared starting options at left tackle, tight end and outside receiver.

Availability is not final. Bryson Donnell is out, and Johnny Bowens III will miss the season with a knee injury. Florida Atlantic’s latest accessible official player designations are from October 29. Tonight’s report remains pending, so those older statuses do not establish who can play tonight.

Season at time of writing

UTSA is 6-1, with a 3-0 home record and a 3-1 road record. Recent wins have ranged from 16-14 at Rice to 42-19 at Tulane. Against Tulane, the defense allowed 67 rushing yards while the offense ran for 223 yards.
