UTSA vs. Houston updates: Live NCAA Football game scores, results for Saturday
Live scores, highlights and updates from the UTSA vs. Houston football game
The Houston Cougars and the UTSA Roadrunners will face off at 3:30 p.m. ET Sept. 3 at Alamodome to kick off their 2022 seasons. Houston ended up 12-2 last year and capped things off with a win over the Auburn Tigers in the Birmingham Bowl, so they are on the hunt for another strong season. Likewise, after a 12-2 record last season and an appearance in the Frisco Bowl, UTSA is coming in with an eye to spark another quality season.
A couple offensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: The Cougars were 11th best in the nation (top 4%) in overall offensive touchdowns, finishing the 2021 season with 59. The Roadrunners were not quite as good, but they were no chumps, either: they ranked 12th in the nation in overall offensive touchdowns, closing the season with 57 overall (top 5%).
Houston is the favorite in this one, with an expected 5.5-point margin of victory. A victory is hardly a sure thing, especially this early in the season, so expect a good game.
