SportsLine's model revealed its best bets for the Thursday Conference USA matchup between the South Florida Bulls and UTSA Roadrunners
• 2 min read
The South Florida Bulls head to Texas to face one of the toughest homefield advantages in college football and the UTSA Roadrunners in a key American Athletic Conference matchup. UTSA (4-1, 1-0 AAC) is coming off a narrow 19-17 win over Rice. Coach Jeff Traylor's home record in the Alamodome is 35-5 overall and has been nearly unbeatable against conference opponents in San Antonio. Quarterback Owen McCown has been efficient with 1,010 yards and seven TDs, and Will Henderson III gives UTSA a ground game that has averaged better than five yards per carry. South Florida's (4-1, 1-1 AAC) defense has been the tighter unit, allowing 14.6 ppg, but this is its toughest challenge of the season. The Bulls' only loss was a 17-13 stumble against Temple.
