UTSA Football Season Officially Open!

The UTSA Roadrunners will be playing their first football game in school history.  For the first time their students will be able to have a big sport to cheer for and a great place to go for them.  They will be playing all of their home games at the Alamodome (also where the Alamobowl is played and has seats for up to 70,000+ people).  Former Miami Hurricane Head Coach Larry Coker will be coaching the team and we should expect some pretty interesting things as their first season of football gets underway.  We can hope for at least a .500 record as they will be moving up to the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) as of 2012.  Playing in the FCS (Division 1-AA) should not be all that hard or we might be looking at a program that could take a while to get off the ground.  They may be able to get some of the best players in the San Antonio area but unless they are winning most of their games, I find it hard to believe that players from outside the city, much less the state will be dying to get in there.
