Texas Smothers UTSA 30-6 Behind Arch Manning and Cam Coleman
UTSA gained 143 yards. Total. Texas got 231 of its own on the ground alone, and the Longhorns won 30-6 to move to 3-0 while the Roadrunners fell to 2-1.
Cam Coleman did the early work. He caught a 24-yard touchdown from Arch Manning with 13:34 left in the first quarter, and after a UTSA field goal and a 52-yarder from Gianni Spetic, Coleman hauled in another from three yards out to make it 17-3. Spetic added a 34-yarder with ten seconds left in the half, and Texas went to the break up 20-3. The Longhorns led from the first score to the last.
The second half was short on points. Braydon Doane kicked a 43-yard field goal for UTSA to cut it to 20-6, Spetic answered with a 23-yarder to make it 23-6 heading into the fourth, and Derrek Cooper scored from a yard out in the fourth to finish it. UTSA never reached the end zone all day. Two field goals, from Michael Petro and Braydon Doane, were the entire offense, and they never got closer than 14 points. The Roadrunners threw for 70 yards and one interception, and Texas had no turnovers at all. Texas ran the ball 49 times and put up 400 yards, which is a lot of work for a team whose quarterback went 16 for 32 (and still plenty of points).
For fantasy, this was a Texas-only party, and a fairly quiet one. Manning threw for 161 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 53 more. Coleman caught both of the touchdowns. Cooper had 11 carries for 44 yards and the final score.
