Jags Win In Dominant Fashion Over ULM 55-7 For First Win At Malone Stadium
This is the South Alabama team we thought would show up this season.
They went into Monroe Louisiana and dominated from beginning to end in a 55-7 drumming of the Warhawks. Carter Bradley threw for 303 yards and three touchdowns and La’Damian Webb ran for 100 yards and a score.
Caullin Lacy added to him impressive season and extended his streak of 100-yard games. He finished with 7 catches, 156 yards and a touchdown.
South Alabama (3-3, 1-1 SBC) took the opening kickoff 75 yards in 10 plays and 4:03 for the opening touchdown and just never looked back. At the end of the first quarter the Jags had more points (14) than ULM (2-3, 0-2 SBC) had total yards (8).
The Warhawks, down 31-0, took the ensuing kickoff and drove 75 yards in 11 plays to score with no time remaining in the half for their only points of the game.
The second half was all Jags in a shutout. The only time the Warhawks really got a scent of points in the second half, they got to the Jags 16, but they would turn the ball over on downs after a sack.
South Alabama kept burning the clock but the Warhawks couldn’t stop the Jags. Gio Lopez tossed a touchdown pass to Jeremiah Webb the first touchdowns in both players careers.
