Coach Porter's Notes
UTSA gives up the most yards per game (437.4) in the conference, including 345.5 through the air, I expect to exploit that.
We can not afford to give them extra possessions on turnovers.
Solid DL. DT Blaylock (#93) gets good push up the middle, run or pass.
Linebackers Shaw (#31) and Davis (#45) are smart and good tacklers. They do lack speed so we will look for mismatches in the passing game.
Their secondary is the weakness. We must attack them.
Coach White's Notes
UTSA slings it, no doubt. Their QB, Rome (#2) leads the conference in yards and TDs. We need to get after the QB and keep the receivers in check.
The run game is an afterthought but they can still do some damage if we let him.
Wilson (#87) and Smith (#9) are the top two receivers, but Wallace (#41) who plays in the slot, leads them in yards and TDs.
Decent OL, not the best or worst we have faced.
We'll take the W though.
