It's been eight months since substantive copy changes were made. Give it a once-over.
Entering the title game, the teams' second, and most recent, meeting came in the 2021 regular season Maybe set off the bolded part in dashes? It's kinda choppy as is with the commas where they are.
The game did end in a Hilltopper victory why not just "ended"
I think it had to do with how I ended the previous sentence but I didn't like it either way so I rewrote that last sentence entirely.

The Roadrunners earned their first conference victory the following week against Middle Tennessee, and finished their non-conference schedule with an upset victory over MemphisUser:Sammi Brie/Commas in sentences — remove comma after "Tennessee"
I really do need to study that page of yours. Removed.

(which included a school-record 21-point comeback)[24] If the citation pertains to the parentheses, it should go inside it.
22-yard-line Why is there a hyphen between yard and line? (Recurs)
That's normally how I refer to yard lines when writing about football but a Google or two shows that said hyphen is rarely included, so I've taken it out.

Would a glossary link be worth including for terms like touchback?
Yes, included links for (opening) kickoff, drive, touchdown, quarterback, touchback, field goal, running back, wide receiver, placekicker, punt, halftime, interception, and two-point conversion.

The Hilltoppers converted another fourth down, this time at their own 24-yard-line, and was able to move the ball to the UTSA 47-yard-line and had to attempt a Hail Mary, though the ball was intercepted, securing an eight-point victory for UTSA. Long sentence. Also, "Hilltoppers" and "was" don't agree in number.
Changed to "were" and split the sentence.

I also see one dead ref [18], which I have found in the originating newspaper. Up to you if you'd rather use it.[1]
3: 2014 ESPN game report for WKU/UTSA. The score was 45–7 WKU (38-point win). Y
18: Just so happens to be the ref I saved. It states that by winning, WKU won the East Division and a spot in the title game. Y
26: This is a dead link. It is archived and checks out: ...Roadrunners rolled to a 45-0 homecoming victory over Rice on Saturday night.Y
28: Another gamer from UTSA-La. Tech, UTSA won. Y
29: And the same for UTEP. Y
Earwig finds no issues except for some banal phrases like "got the ball back with" in the game report.

Sammi Brie: thanks for the review! I've taken care of everything above - also went back through and found a few other things to tweak.
