UTSA Looks For Its Best Win Of 2024

Going into their first game of American Athletic Conference play, the UTSA Roadrunners are 2-2 on the season. They have beaten a couple of bad teams in FCS Houston Christian and a Kennesaw State team that was making its debut at the FBS level, while losing to very good Texas and Texas State squads. Here, the Roadrunners will look for their best win of the 2024 college football season so far. But UTSA has been blown out in both of their road games so far this year and will need to conjure up some defensive stops to reverse that trend and come away with a 1-0 start in AAC action.

East Carolina Opens Conference Play At .500

Just like UTSA, the East Carolina Pirates are 2-2 going into their first game of conference play on Saturday. The Pirates won their first two games of the season against Norfolk State of the FCS and Old Dominion of the FBS. They have since dropped two straight games to App State and Liberty and will look to get back into the win column in this contest. Turnovers will be a key in determining whether or not East Carolina can come away with a win in this matchup, as quarterback Jake Garcia has an eye-popping nine interceptions through his team's first four games, and the Pirates need to see fewer of those to avoid a loss in their AAC opener.

UTSA vs East Carolina Best Bet

This UTSA vs East Carolina matchup is crucial for both teams, as both squads look to get above the .500 mark and start their AAC seasons off with a victory. As far as who we think is most likely to do that, we will go with the ECU Pirates on their home field over a UTSA team that has not notched anything resembling an impressive win yet this year.
