At Yulman Stadium, home of the Green Wave, fans witnessed an offensive showcase as the South Florida Bulls amassed a total of 505 yards. The ground game was particularly dominant for the Bulls, churning out 378 rushing yards over 52 attempts. This relentless rushing attack was highlighted by a spectacular longest touchdown run of 45 yards, contributing to their three rushing touchdowns.

The passing game for the Bulls was efficient enough to complement their running success. Quarterback play led to two touchdowns through the air with a longest completion stretching for 38 yards. Despite completing only ten passes on twenty-four attempts, these connections were crucial in maintaining drive momentum and ultimately reaching paydirt twice.

Special teams had mixed results; while one field goal attempt was blocked among two misses, kickoffs were notably effective with three touchbacks from six kickoffs and four kicks reaching into the end zone.

Defensively, South Florida managed to sack Tulane's quarterback twice and recorded one interception without allowing any sacks themselves—a testament to their offensive line's protection capabilities. Penalties could have been an area of concern as they accumulated seven infractions totaling eighty-nine penalty yards but did not significantly hinder their overall performance.

The fourth quarter saw no additional points from South Florida but they had already done enough in earlier quarters to secure their lead despite Tulane rallying fourteen points in that final period.

Looking ahead after this hard-fought victory on artificial turf before seventeen thousand fans, The South Florida Bulls will return home to Raymond James Stadium in Tampa where they will face off against Houston Cougars on October 28th at 7:45 PM local time.
