The UTSA Roadrunners have the edge because they’re the more talented team and this is a true home game for them. However, I’m not laying this number with a club that just lost to Grambling and Dartmouth, and that includes an overtime game yesterday. The same teams UTSA lost to, Incarnate Word beat. I’ll take my chances with the Cardinals.
