Incarnate Word? Never heard of them.

From UIW's Wiki:
The Cardinals at the University of the Incarnate Word began playing American football in the fall of 2009; it is the only NCAA Division II team with a football program in the San Antonio metropolitan area. Furthermore, UIW has expressed interest in moving to the NCAA Division I Southland Conference in 2014, pending approval by students and faculty.
Not an FCS size stadium. Looks very DII-III...or 3A High School
Well they've only been playing since 2009. Doesn't sound like they have a huge fanbase.
The women's basketball coach at UIW is our own Angela Lawson. I believe we have have played them in exibition games in the past.
UNO to the Southland...

Across 281 from Trinity, Olmos Park/Alamo Heights area... Guess who their stadium is named after, that's right none other than the owner of the San Antonio...err New Orleans Saints, Tom Benson. They have their own High School also.
Lawson has done a great job with the Women's Basketball Program, she had them in the conference title game last year as the 6th seed beating both the 3rd and 2nd seed before falling to Tarleton State in the finals 48-44.
