The undefeated UTSA Roadrunners have made their first appearance in the College Football Playoff Rankings, landing at No. 23 in this week’s top 25 unveiled on Tuesday evening.
Off to the best overall (9-0) and conference (5-0) starts in program history and riding a school-record nine-game winning streak, the Roadrunners are the third highest-ranked team from a Group of Five conference behind No. 5 Cincinnati and No. 22 San Diego State.
On Sunday, UTSA moved up to No. 15 — their highest ranking ever — in the AP Top 25 and to 16th in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll. The Roadrunners also appear at No. 15 in this week’s Football Writers Association of America/National Football Foundation Super 16 Poll.
The Roadrunners — one of four undefeated FBS teams — will host Southern Miss (1-8, 0-5) for “Orange Out” this Saturday, Nov. 13. Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. at the Alamodome.
