South Florida Bulls Game Notes
Byrum Brown was 18-for-26 passing for 316 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday’s 27-23 win over Temple. He also had 15 rushes for -14 yards with one touchdown.
Brown did not quite live up to last week’s five touchdown performance, but he still played quite well Saturday versus Temple. He scored his ninth rushing touchdown of the season despite losing 14 yards on the ground in the game and threw a 32-yard touchdown to Khafre Brown in the first quarter. He also threw an interception though, his fifth in his last five starts.
UTSA Roadrunners Game Notes
Frank Harris was 15-for-24 passing for 175 yards and one touchdown during Saturday’s 34-14 win over Rice. He also had six rushes for 31 yards.
Harris played well Saturday, completing 62.5 percent of his passes and tossing a touchdown, but did not have to do much with the run-game working and the game getting out of hand fairly early on. With so much attention going into the Roadrunners’ rushing attack, Harris has tossed just one touchdown in the past two weeks, a slightly concerning sign from a fantasy perspective.
