Before the game, UTSA was 5-4, which seems like a respectable record. Then, you take a deeper look at their wins:

Baylor (1 FBS win which was against Kansas which has 0 FBS wins)
Southern (an FCS with 0 FBS wins)
Texas State (1 FBS win which was against Coastal which had 1 FBS win)
Rice (1 FBS win which was against winless UTEP)
UTEP (0 wins)

So, of UTSA's five wins, those five teams combined to have three FBS wins cumulatively. Those three FBS wins that those five teams had combined? They were against teams that combined to have 1 FBS win.

It would be hard to hand-select a weaker crop of teams to put on your schedule. Even more remarkable, the very limited success those UTSA opponents have had came against more very bad teams.

Unacceptable for Marshall Football. I am honestly stunned to see how far this program has slipped. We approaching levels that may be worse than the Snyder years. He played tougher schedules at least.

There was time when we would have went in there and beat UTSA by an score we would have wanted to. hell, we had IAA teams that would have been them and beat them handily.

UTSA is a tough team to figure out. You're 100% spot on that they had not beaten anyone with a pulse prior to us (although the argument could be made we barely have a pulse ourselves).

That said, they have been competitive in every game they've played. I believe their four losses have been by a combined 17 points. I know UNT scored a TD with 10 seconds left to win that game and UTSA missed a two point conversion with under a minute left to lose to USM.
