SAN ANTONIO — Following the 45-0 shutout of Rice on Saturday, UTSA is nationally ranked for the first time in program history, appearing at No. 24 in the Associated Press Top 25 Poll and No. 25 in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll this week.
Off to the best overall (7-0) and conference (3-0) starts in program history, the Roadrunners received 104 votes to crack the AP Top 25 for the first time. This marks the fourth consecutive week and fifth time overall UTSA has received votes in the poll. On Sept. 20, 2020, UTSA collected two votes in the AP Top 25 Poll, a first for the program.
UTSA, which now owns a pair of shutouts this season, received 96 votes this week to leap into the USA TODAY AFCA Coaches Poll for the first time. This marks the sixth straight week the Roadrunners have acquired votes in that poll.
The Roadrunners will carry their program-record seven-game winning streak to Ruston, La., to face Louisiana Tech (2-4, 1-1) this Saturday, Oct. 23. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. at Joe Aillet Stadium and the game will be televised by Stadium (KMYS-TV/WOAI-2 in San Antonio).
