Post

FINAL:

UTSA 21  North Texas 13


Had the Roadrunners not missed all of their FG tries (0-3), this one could have been more lopsided.

But a win is a win, especially when upsetting a team favored to win by 9.5 points.

Eric Soza was 30-of-49 for 274 yards, but his legs turned in the most production with a pair of scores for USTA.

FINAL:

UTEP 3  Tulane 45

Green Wave QB Nick Montana had struggled with accuracy coming into Saturday's tilt against the Miners, but found his rhythm (12-of-19) for three scores, and no interceptions, in a blow out affair.

At 7-4 overall, Tulane now has the most wins under foot in the last 11 years.

FINAL:

Marshall 48  FIU 10

With a 3-0 lead at the conclusion of the first quarter, the Panthers had upsets on their minds.

However the Herd quickly squelched those hopes with a 34-0 scoring run leaving FIU (1-10) gasping for breath.

Florida International was content to devote 75% of their attack to the ground game, and fell flat, while attempting 45 carries for a net of just 95 yards.

The Herd was balanced in their approach, but saw the passing game produce most of the scores with QB Rakeem Cato notching four passes for TD's.

FINAL:

Tulsa 24  Louisiana Tech 14

It's been a disappointing year for the Golden Hurricane, however a solid performance from RB Trey Watts (178 yards, 3TD's) gave the squad some joy on Saturday against the Bulldogs.

Tech pulled within three points late in the third quarter, but Watt's five yard scamper into the end zone at the 10 minute mark of the final period would result in the contest's last points.

Secondary play was indeed stellar for both units, accounting for a total of seven interceptions on the day.

Tulsa won that micro-battle 4-3 as well.

I was thinking the same thing at first but then I was thinking, their performance came in a meaningful conference game against a good opponent, and ours was very bad meaningless non conference game…
