North Texas vs UTSA Stats

North Texas Eagles

North Texas suffered a surprising 3-14 loss to Army last weekend, failing to score a touchdown despite being a top passing offense in the country. Quarterback Chandler Morris struggled with two interceptions, and Army dominated the game on the ground and in time of possession. Despite this setback, North Texas still ranks highly in offensive statistics and is expected to bounce back against UTSA. With a power ranking of 42, North Texas is ranked 7 in offense, 128 in defense, and has a record of 5-3 this season.

UTSA Roadrunners Analysis

The UTSA Roadrunners are coming off a significant win against Memphis, improving their overall record to 4-5 with a 2-3 conference record. Despite a rocky start to the season, with blowout losses and close games, the Roadrunners have shown strength in their home games, holding a 4-0 record. Quarterback Owen McCown has been a standout player, with impressive stats in passing yards and touchdowns. However, their defense ranks lower, and they face a challenge against North Texas, who have a recent winning record against UTSA. This upcoming game will test whether UTSA can continue their success at home and improve their overall performance.

North Texas Favored to Defeat UTSA in Upcoming Game

North Texas is currently the favored team to win the upcoming game based on various sportsbooks. Despite having a 0-3 record in their last three games, it is important to note that their opponents during that period – Memphis, Tulane, and Army – have a collective record of 27-4 this season. North Texas also demonstrated strong performance by keeping the margin of defeat to those opponents within 11 points. UTSA, their upcoming opponent, is not expected to present as significant a challenge as Army did in their previous matchup. While UTSA has shown a strong home performance this season, it may not hold true for the entirety of the season. North Texas is well-positioned to secure a win and potentially hand UTSA their first home loss of the season.
