Colorado State came to San Antonio undefeated, confident, and carrying the memory of last season’s scare in Fort Collins.
UTSA sent them home with a receipt.
In this audio blog, we break down the Roadrunners’ 48–3 demolition of CSU, Wayshawn Parker’s monster night, Owen McCown’s steady control of the offense, Jalen Smith stepping up through injuries, and a defensive performance that produced nine sacks, three interceptions, and another game without allowing a touchdown.
The Roadrunners are now 4–0, ranked #9 in the country, riding a 21-game winning streak, and carrying a defense that still has not allowed an opponent into the end zone this season.
Lightning couldn’t strike twice.
It got sacked nine times.

In this audio blog edition of Roadrunners Rising: The Stonewall Merritt Era, Frankie “The Horn” Calderón breaks down how the Roadrunners won their first game in Austin, why Wayshawn Parker’s 258-yard, 4-touchdown explosion changed the conversation, and how Mekhi Anderson, Owen McCown, Vic Shaw, Bob Toone, and the Southwest Sack Exchange turned a top-15 matchup into a public correction.
Texas had the brand, the crowd, and the history.
UTSA had the better football team.
