Lightning Couldn’t Strike Twice: UTSA Climbs to #9 After Spanking CSU 48-3 | Audio Blog

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.

Lightning couldn’t strike twice. It got sacked nine times. Read the full blog at feotbpod.org.
