FINAL:

Tulsa 7  Tulane 14

Despite a close game, the Green Wave also remain undefeated in C-USA action at 4-0 thanks to four Golden Hurricane turnovers.

Tulsa QB Dane Evans struggled on the afternoon completing just 43% of his passes while throwing three interceptions.

With the win, Tulane becomes Bowl eligible for the first time since the 2002 season.

FINAL:

UAB 31  UTSA 52

Twenty four unanswered first quarter points, and a balanced offensive attack, propel the Roadrunners past UAB. QB Eric Soza was 14-of-21 for 235 yards and 2TD.

Blazer WR Jamarcus Nelson notched a game high 101 yards off five catches.

USTA had 13 players record a catch on the day.

FINAL:

Louisiana Tech 23  FIU 7

The Bulldogs become the first road team to pull off a win for the week.

LT's run defense was indeed stiff, holding the Panthers to just 69 yards on 38 carries (1.8 ypc).

Why FIU continued to hand it off would be anyone's guess, although a 42% success rate through the air (11-of-26) might have something to do with it.

FINAL:

North Texas 55  Southern Miss 14

With the mean Green ahead 41-7, this one was over at the half.

They posted 30 first downs to that of 10 for the Golden Eagles, and doubled up in total yardage with a 529-249 showing.

UNT's ground game was responsible for six of their eight touchdowns.

The Defensive award went to Tulane junior S Sam Scofield, who had a C-USA season-high 18 tackles and several other big plays in Tulane's 14-7 win over Tulsa that made the Green Wave bowl-eligible for the first time in 11 years.

The Special Teams Player of the Week award went to Louisiana Tech sophomore K Kyle Fischer, who booted a school record five field goals in a win at FIU. C-USA Football Players of the Week are voted on by a panel of the league's media.

Tulane safety Sam Scofield has been named the FWAA/Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week for games of Oct. 26.

Scofield recorded a career-high 18 tackles (14 unassisted) in the Green Wave's 14-7 victory over Tulsa in New Orleans. He had 1.5 tackles for losses to go along with two pass break-ups and a key forced fumble midway through the fourth quarter to help the Green Wave improve to 4-0 in conference play.

The 18 total tackles are the most by a Conference USA player this season.
