The Army Black Knights continue to be impervious to the magic of the Alamodome, as they knocked off the Roadrunners 27-24 in San Antonio to end UTSA's regular season with a loss.

UTSA's win streak in conference games in the Alamodome is the stuff of legends, but one team has consistently had the Roadrunners number in the confines of the Dome -- The Army Black Knights.

Baseball season will be here before we know it, and today's release of the Roadrunners' 2026 schedule brings us that much closer to first pitch. Dan is joined by UTSA Baseball alumnus James Taussig to discuss this season's schedule, highlight some key matchups, and discuss the flawed RPI system in college baseball.
Alamodome magic showed up once again as the Roadrunners smoked the ECU Pirates 58-24, giving UTSA their sixth-straight season of bowl eligibility, while the Pirates were eliminated from American Conference championship contention. We had to spend some time in this episode searching for answers around why the Alamodome has been such an unfriendly site for opponents. 00:00 Dominating Victory Over ECU 05:21 Inconsistency on the Road vs. Home Performance 08:19 Comparing This Year to Last Year 14:02 Offensive Line Performance 16:52 Key Plays and Momentum Shifts 19:48 Future Outlook 25:00 Defensive Highlights and Culture 28:59 The Alamodome's Home Field Advantage 38:30 Defensive Performances and Team Resilience 42:10 Is UTSA vs ECU becoming a rivalry?

The Roadrunners finally earned their first conference road win in two years with a too-close-for-comfort win over Charlotte. Can UTSA now extend their home conference winning streak?

7Alex Golesh and his Bulls down-right decimated the UTSA Roadrunners, then had a lot to say about it. It's just the latest entry in a frustrating cycle for the program where the Roadrunners secure a big win at home and look to be turning the corner before falling flat on their face when they step into another team's stadium. Can UTSA put their road woes to the side to beat a deeply struggling Charlotte program? We better hope so. 0:00:00 UTSA gets wrecked on the road once again 0:03:50 Alex Golesh calls out Jeff Traylor 0:10:00 It's not been a fun year to be a UTSA fan 0:22:10 We actually talk about the game a little bit 0:37:32 Charlotte is a real mess right now 40:33 Biff Poggi set Charlotte back by years 43:19 Defensive Challenges and Team Dynamics 46:17 Fan Engagement and Team Morale 49:06 Looking Ahead: Remaining Games and Predictions 51:58 Coaching Pressure and Future Changes Video: https://youtu.be/qzxlkUHv2xQ

Tune in to hear how Rylan got his start covering UTSA Baseball and how he developed such a passion for the program. Rylan and Dan also share some hints on scheduling, as well as break down the action from the UTSA Fall World Series.
Don't count out the Roadrunners in the Alamodome, especially in their black out unis. UTSA felt disrespected by Tulane, and responded in kind of a shocking 48-26 shellacking on ESPN. We break down how the Roadrunners were able to turn things around, and discuss the improving health of the offense. Next up is another super formidable opponent, as USF boasts what may be the deepest roster UTSA has ever seen a conference opponent bring into battle. 00:00 UTSA's Surprising Upset Victory 03:12 Defensive Performance and Team Dynamics 06:25 Quarterback Health and Performance 09:02 Offensive Strategy and Play Calling 18:07 Coaching and Future Prospects 29:54 Roster Management and Player Development 32:33 Special Teams Surprises and Performance 35:12 Coaching Challenges and Program Expectations 46:50 UTSA's Upcoming Challenge Against USF 49:59 Analyzing USF's Roster and Performance 58:43 Game Predictions and Final Thoughts Video: https://youtu.be/yNTgUzuH_B8
The outlook for both UTSA Men's and Women's basketball looks tough to tip off the 2025-2026 season. Austin Claunch has to flip his entire roster (again) in his second season, while Karen Aston will need to nurse up an extremely injured roster.

Jeff Traylor's UTSA program has failed to show up in three games under Traylor's tenure. All three have been in rivalry games, with the most recent being a disgusting 55-17 beat down from the UNT Mean Green. This is the type of loss that points to deep cultural issues, as the head man himself ate his own cheese following an impressive but anticipated big win against Rice.

The Roadrunners let some steam loose on the Rice Owls with a record-setting performance that saw UTSA knock three different Rice quarterbacks out of the game. UTSA's offense found a new level of explosiveness thanks to some home run plays through both the ground and the air. Meanwhile, UTSA's defense wouldn't be left out of the scoring party as they pitched in 16 points of their own. We recap this impressive blowout while looking ahead to a huge game against a 5-1 North Texas rival. 00:30 UTSA's Dominant Victory over Rice 10:58 Analyzing the Impact of the Win 31:21 Rivalry Overview: UTSA vs UNT 36:22 Analyzing UNT's 2025 Season 39:42 Key Players on the UNT Roster 52:19 Score Predictions Video: https://youtu.be/V5iW4uJADtg
The Roadrunners looked to have corrected some issues coming out of the bye week, then halftime happened. Temple Head Coach K.C. Keeler ripped into his team at the half then took control of the contest to overcome an 11 point deficient. UTSA looks to be in deep trouble as the toughest part of the conference slate looms. Can the Roadrunners turn things around against a new look Rice offense? We introduce Scott Abell and his gun choice option. 0:00:00 UTSA disappoints on the road once again 0:05:09 Third quarter adjustments issues point to systemic problems with the program 0:20:49 Breaking down the highs and lows from the loss to Temple 0:41:02 Previewing Scott Abell's Rice Owls 0:57:08 Score predictions Video: https://youtu.be/2BkTdmRt06U
Both the Roadrunners and Owls will be fresh off of bye weeks on Saturday as they get the pads popping to begin conference play.

Enjoy a very special episode of Around the Bird Bath as Dan is joined by three alumni from UTSA's highly successful 2013 team - Mike Warren, Jaryd Hodgson, and John Bormann. The guys recollect on their journey to UTSA, culminating in a trip to regionals against Oregon State. All three guys are now very involved in bolstering support for the program today as the Roadrunners seek to build the facilities that the baseball program deserves.
Road wins against FBS opponents are never something to take for granted, but man was this offensive performance was hard to swallow. UTSA returns almost all of their offense, yet they look less cohesive than the defense where zero starters returned. We break down the performance against the CSU Rams and what needs to change in the bye week. 00:00 Introduction and Season Overview 03:08 Game Recap: UTSA vs. CSU Rams 06:09 Defensive Performance Analysis 09:06 Offensive Struggles and Concerns 11:57 Key Player Performances 15:00 Quarterback Challenges and Future Outlook 23:38 Mental Struggles and Team Cohesion 31:46 Special Teams Woes 38:10 Coaching Challenges and Future Outlook 42:34 UTSA's Area Code Guys Are Not Showing Up Video: https://youtu.be/nREGBsOddy8
The Roadrunners handled business against Incarnate Word with a boring offensive game plan and a knack for generating turnovers against an overmatched opponent. Now UTSA has to build off of their first win with a challenging road trip to face an opponent they are 0-2 against historically. CSU's passing offense is in shambles, and UTSA has one of the worst secondaries in the country. Something's gotta give. 00:00:00 UTSA did what they had to do against UIW 00:06:58 Defensive Performance and Turnovers 00:10:54 Offensive Strategy and Passing Game 00:25:07 Defensive Adjustments and Coverage Issues 00:28:14 Emerging Talents in the Defensive Line 00:32:12 Linebacker Performance and Team Discipline 00:36:27 Special Teams Areas for Improvement 00:41:38 Introduction to Colorado State University Rams 01:01:11 Predictions Video: https://youtu.be/eU7SlY3ZDas
For the second straight year, Texas State looked like the better coached and more well prepared team in the I-35 rivalry. It was the Bobcats who stepped up each time a big play was needed, and never wavered in the face of adversity from the Roadrunners. Jess Loepp's secondary was torched, while the offense struggled with consistency. Where do things go from here? The answers are harder to find on the defensive end. 00:27 Texas State was the better team on the field, are they a better program now? 06:08 The Bobcats were so much more resilient in the heat of the contest 10:40 Pushing back on the narrative of the portal explaining UTSA's struggles 17:18 UTSA had some serious procedural complications on the offense 23:15 Let's be honest, this roster has some glaring holes 32:31 Special teams is a train wreck for UTSA 40:12 Highlighting positives for UTSA coming out of the loss 44:20 Previewing UIW ahead of the Hometown Showdown 55:40 UTSA's secondary will need to show improvement against a similar offense they struggled with last week 59:43 Score predictions Video: https://youtu.be/_EhCBPCf0tA
While the Roadrunners weren't able to pull the upset against #19 Texas A&M, UTSA sure looked the part against an SEC foe. Winning in the trenches and mostly avoiding penalties, Jeff Traylor feels like his team has the right stuff to compete for a championship. UTSA will have a chance to prove their progression over the offseason this week as they welcome Texas State to the Alamodome for the home opener. Can UTSA avenge last year's awful loss in the I-35 Showdown? 04:20 A&M performance recap 34:08 Listener voicemails 46:03 Previewing the Texas State Bobcats 1:11:00 Score predictions Video: https://youtu.be/9MGWFtoFNK0
