First Quarter

The opening quarter saw the home team, Navy Midshipmen, take an early lead with a score of 14 points against South Florida's 3. The Bulls managed to put up their first points through a field goal by Nico Gramatica from 22 yards out. However, it was evident that the Midshipmen were setting an aggressive pace right from the start.

Second Quarter

In response to Navy's momentum, South Florida attempted to close the gap in the second quarter but only managed to add six more points compared to Navy's ten. Byrum Brown showcased his passing skills by completing two touchdown passes during this period. Despite his efforts and maintaining a completion rate of approximately 72 percent throughout the game, turnovers plagued their progress.

Third Quarter

The third quarter marked a shift as South Florida tightened their defense and held Navy scoreless while adding seven points themselves. Fred Gaskin led defensively for USF with eight tackles and two assists, contributing significantly during this period of play where they forced two three-and-outs.

Fourth Quarter

Entering into what would be an intense final quarter, both teams displayed offensive prowess; however it was here that South Florida truly shone by scoring an impressive twenty-two points against seventeen from Navy. Alvon Isaac contributed notably on offense with thirty-two rushing yards over seven attempts while Keshaun Singleton caught five passes for eighty-six yards including one touchdown reception which helped keep them within striking distance until time expired.

Despite these efforts and some game-changing plays such as Traevon Mitchell’s half sack alongside Josh Celiscar’s defensive contributions (four combined tackles), ultimately it wasn't enough for victory over their opponents who maintained composure under pressure securing them another win this season leaving fans eagerly anticipating post-game thoughts about how they can improve moving forward especially considering upcoming matchups like next week’s clash between USF versus UAB Blazers scheduled November twenty-second at Protective Stadium Birmingham Alabama starting one PM Eastern Daylight Time available via local broadcasts or streaming services online so don’t miss out!
