Under the direction of Traylor, the 2021 Conference USA Coach of the Year, UTSA is coming off the most successful season in the 11-year history of the program. The Roadrunners finished with a 12-2 record — the most wins and top winning percentage (.857) in school annals — and captured their first conference title with a 49-41 victory over WKU in the C-USA Championship Game. UTSA was nationally ranked — as high as No. 15 — for the first time and concluded the campaign with its second straight and third overall bowl appearance against San Diego State in the Tropical Smoothie Café Frisco Bowl.
