Owen McCown’s college football journey got off to a fast start. Beginning his career at Colorado, he played in four games as a true freshman and started three. In his first start, he produced the second-best starting debut by a quarterback in Colorado history, passing for 258 yards and a touchdown against UCLA. After the staff turnover at Colorado, McCown made his way back to his home state to join Head Coach Jeff Traylor and the Roadrunners of UTSA. During the 2023 season, McCown played in seven games, with his first start coming against Marshall in the Frisco Bowl, where he led the Roadrunners to their first-ever bowl win — a sign of things to come.
