UTSA 2021 Season in Review

[Coach Andy Mac]

WAY TOO EARLY 2022 OUTLOOK

Expecting 12-win seasons and conference championships isn’t fair to a program that is still in relative infancy. The Roadrunners should be a contender in C-USA in 2022, but they won’t be the overwhelming favorite unless they can replace McCormick on offense and Hicks on defense. 

The out-of-conference schedule will test Traylor’s program with a season-opener against Houston followed two weeks later with a trip to Austin to face the Longhorns. C-USA isn’t a top-tier conference, so that means the Roadrunners can win their division with another MVP season from Harris. Winning a championship is hard. Remaining a champion is much harder. UTSA will get every team’s best shot throughout the 2022 season. How will the Roadrunners respond to being the hunted rather than the hunter?

They'll be severely disappointed if they expect another 12 win season

Replacing McCormick is going to be as easy for them as replacing Darden was for us.

UTSA coach did more in one year than SL has done in six years, yet SL still walks the sidelines at UNT.  No really he walks the sidelines at UNT games.

Can we please highlight that the programs out pacing us in conference success are young.  This is what is makes holding on to Seth after these past 3 season infuriating.   There isn't one logical reason to hold on to Seth going into year 7 except money.   I hope against all the past that says otherwise,  but I believe Seth's 2022 performance will be mediocre or just plain bad.  I would love to sit down and have a confidential discussion with Wren Baker about the state of the program and the real reason why Seth is still here.  I would be willing to bet everything I own that Wren knows this an underperforming 2022 football team coached by Seth would be disastrous for program.  When I say disastrous I mean, setting the bar even higher for team performance before Apogee is sold out for a game. 

UTSA media feels the need to limit unreasonable expectations for a relatively new program.  And many receive downvotes for expecting that coach going into year 7 with a below 0.500 record overall,  and 3 straight losing would be fired.  I fully expect UTSA to get revenge on us in the Alamadome next year.

You know the date is circled on the UTSA calendar.

That's like the old saying, "Other than that, did you enjoy the play, Mrs. Lincoln?"

Known costs are always the main things that matter here. You've been a fan here for a while, so this shouldn't really surprise you that much...but it sure seems like it does.

Here's my UTSA 2021 season in review:

Lost to North Texas 45-23. Would have lost 11 more times if they played UNT in all of those games.

We won't ever circle that date on our calendar, but I'll be damned if we don't end up with 20 different gmg.com threads every year, talking about how UTSA circles that date on their calendar.

And people still want to think SMU (who doesn't give a damn about us) is our biggest rival.

Every game against UTSA has been chippy. There have been blowouts on both sides, close last minute wins, and general disdain between fans and players on both sides. Hell our BANDS were arguing this last game.

When does that ever happen with SMU? At least in recent memory? I dare say never. 

I say embrace the hate, who cares if UTSA is a glorified community college with almost no athletic history. They're the best rival we've had since joining CUSA

If they didn’t give a damn before, I’m guessing they will start caring when we are conference mates.

For sure. A conference win is a conference win, but until we start getting serious about football(IE Hiring a competent coach), especially in the AAC, we'll just be another Temple/USF/Tulane
