PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA - OCTOBER 7: Head coach Jeff Traylor of the UTSA Roadrunners reacts against the Temple Owls in the first half at Lincoln Financial Field on October 7, 2023 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The UTSA coach placed more than 100 rat traps in his players’ lockers after the Road Runners beat FAU 36-10 on Saturday, which kept up with his longrunning “don’t eat the cheese” metaphor that he preaches to his team.

It woulda killed a lesser man.” The Roadrunners will host East Carolina next on Saturday.
