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. 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. Read the full blog at feotbpod.org.

Episode 280 of The Far End of the Bench hits the summer sports chaos from every angle. In this audio blog, we break down the USMNT making World Cup history by winning back-to-back matches for the first time since 1930 and taking control of Group D, then look ahead to the knockout-stage possibilities. From there, the focus shifts to Florida, where Giannis Antetokounmpo heading to Miami shakes up the NBA and Brady Tkachuk joining Matthew Tkachuk with the Panthers makes Florida even more dangerous in the NHL. We also touch on the PLL’s San Diego weekend, the best bucket-list sports and arena events from this week’s VS debate, and the Episode 280 Player and Benchwarmer of the Week awards.

Battle for the Texas Crown: #14 UTSA Heads to Austin With Everything to Prove | Audio Blog

The Battle for the Texas Crown is here. No. 14 UTSA heads to Austin to face No. 11 Texas in one of the biggest tests of the Stonewall Merritt era. After humiliating Baylor and burying Texas State 69-0 in San Marcos, the Roadrunners now walk into Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium with something bigger than a regular nonconference win on the line. Respect. Texas is the old kingdom. UTSA is the young champion tired of being told its rise does not count until it happens against the Longhorns. In this audio blog, Frankie “The Horn” Calderón sets the stage for UTSA vs. Texas, the history between the programs, the weight of Austin, and why the scoreboard is the only language Texas respects.
