South Florida still has a chance to claim the AAC title but must recover quickly from its recent loss to remain competitive. The Bulls will host UTSA on Thursday as 13.5-point favorites. Meanwhile, UTSA comes off a thrilling upset victory and is eager to continue their momentum.
Can South Florida secure a double-digit win with their potent offense? USF boasts one of college football's most dynamic offenses, averaging 40.4 points per game—second only to North Texas in the AAC. UTSA averages 34.1 points per game and relies heavily on a top-tier running back to challenge the Bulls' defense.
"Henry wasn’t the star in UTSA’s recent win over Tulane, but he remains the team's most reliable threat."
Henry, a dynamic running back, has accumulated 955 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns this season. Only two other backs have more rushing yards at this stage, but Henry averages over 2 yards more per carry than either of them. His performance on the ground will be crucial for UTSA against the AAC’s second-best run defense.
South Florida enters as favorites with a powerful offense, but UTSA’s strong running game and recent upset win could make this game highly competitive.
Author's summary: South Florida aims to rebound and maintain AAC contention against a confident UTSA squad led by standout running back Robert Henry Jr., promising an intriguing matchup.
