His longest pass reached an impressive distance of 68 yards, contributing significantly to his team's success.


Third Quarter

Fourth Quarter


UNLV continued its relentless pursuit in maintaining control over both offense and defense during this quarter by adding another touchdown while keeping CSU scoreless throughout these final moments.


Throughout all quarters combined: Jaylon Glover also made significant contributions through rushing efforts totaling up to nearly reaching triple digits (99) alongside scoring once himself; meanwhile defensive players like Elias Rudolph were instrumental too - recording one sack among other notable stats such as tackles-for-losses which added pressure onto opposing quarterbacks consistently throughout each play sequence executed successfully without any turnovers committed either way from either side involved here today overall!
