First Quarter


The opening quarter set the tone for the Bulls as they quickly took control. By halftime, they had already established a significant lead with a score of 31-10. Key to this early dominance was their efficient passing game led by Byrum Brown, who completed an impressive 93 percent of his passes and threw for two touchdowns.


Second Quarter


In the second quarter, Nykahi Davenport showcased his rushing prowess by scoring two touchdowns on just seven carries. His longest run was an electrifying 59-yard dash that left the Roadrunners' defense scrambling. The Bulls' offensive line provided excellent protection throughout this period, allowing them to maintain momentum and extend their lead.


Third Quarter


As play resumed after halftime, South Florida's defense took center stage. They recorded six sacks during the game and forced three turnovers from UTSA's offense. Jarvis Lee was instrumental in this defensive effort with two sacks and one forced fumble that shifted possession back to USF multiple times.


Fourth Quarter


Despite a late surge from UTSA in the final quarter where they added ten points to their tally, it wasn't enough to overcome South Florida's substantial lead. Tavin Ward sealed any hopes of a comeback for UTSA by intercepting Noah Lugo’s pass and returning it for forty yards into touchdown territory.


This comprehensive victory not only highlights South Florida’s offensive capabilities but also underscores their defensive strength—a combination that proved too formidable for UTSA on this occasion.
