UTSA is 22-3 SU (.880) at the Alamodome under Traylor. The Roadrunners have won 20 of their last 22 home games. They’ve won 16 straight conference games going back to 2021, posting a 17-0 SU home conference slate with Traylor in charge.

The Roadrunners are 37-13 SU (.740) during the Traylor era. That’s the most wins and best winning percentage by a UTSA head coach in school history. UTSA is also 19-1 SU in November and 6-3 SU on Fridays with Traylor in charge.
