UTSA vs. South Florida Prediction: Thursday’s AAC Clash
USF and UTSA face off in an important game Thursday night. Although the 2025 season might end in disappointment for both teams, they remain among the strongest in the Group of 5 conferences.
South Florida Bulls' Season Overview
USF started strong with surprising wins against Boise State and Florida. However, a recent tough loss to Memphis hurt their chances of reaching the College Football Playoff. The Bulls can still make the AAC Championship Game, but they need to win all remaining games and rely on some external help.
UTSA Roadrunners' Chances
UTSA’s opportunity to win the AAC is slimmer but still alive if they defeat USF. Entering the game as a two-score underdog, UTSA should not be underestimated. In Week 10, they delivered their best performance of the season by defeating Tulane 48-26 at the Alamodome, after a heavy 55-17 loss to North Texas.
Team Strengths and Weaknesses
- UTSA’s offense is ranked 37th nationally, but their defense struggles at 98th, according to SP+ data.
- South Florida ranks better overall, with the 22nd-best offense and 63rd defense.
"The Roadrunners can light up a scoreboard with the best teams in the Group of 5, but the defense has been a mess all season."
"USF was one of the surprise packages in the early going with wins over Boise State and Florida."
Despite recent setbacks, both teams possess significant talent, making Thursday's game highly competitive.
