## Resource

Following a lackadaisical start that put FIU up 14-0 through the first five minutes, UTSA snaps into game mode to go on a 57-6 barrage and secure their third straight bowl win. The victory also secured the Roadrunners a winning record in 2025, finishing 7-6 for the second straight season. While hoisting hardware is a great way to end the up-and-down season, Jeff Traylor must quickly shift his focus to the most important offseason of his collegiate coaching career - hiring an offensive coordinator and reloading a defense that has seen mass exodus to the transfer portal. 03:12 Early Struggles 06:26 Talent Disparity 10:18 Roster Management and Portal Exodus 18:05 Recurring Disciplinary Issues 25:58 Individual Player Performances 27:19 Offensive Play Calling 32:31 Assessing Coaching Changes and Conference Dynamics 34:01 Planning for 2026: Roster Construction 36:54 Defensive Challenges and Areas of Focus 43:07 Transfer Portal Insights and Future Strategies Video: https://youtu.be/FZF90RYUyxI
