The 25th ranked Buccaneers and the soon-to-be Conference USA 49ers decided the scoreboard needed some numbers on it. The Buccaneers came out early, scoring three touchdowns in the first quarter and carrying a 28-17 lead into halftime. The 49er run game made its mark in the second half as Kalif Phillips ran for two scores and the score lay 41-41 at the final bell.

Western Carolina Catamounts 35, Furman Paladins 17

Campbell Camels, 34 Valparaiso Crusaders 24
Campbell must like the Pioneer League as they beat the Crusaders for their first win of the year.

Three different Camels had touchdown runs.
Gardner-Webb Runnin Bulldogs 14, Citadel Bulldogs 37
Tough loss in the Bulldog Bowl for Gardner-Webb. The game was close at the half at 13-7, but then the Citadel laid it on in the second half.

Davidson Wildcats 17, Princeton Tigers 56
Tigers are bigger than Wildcats, right? They were yesterday. Princeton was up 39-10 at the half and coasted from there. Wildcats quarterback JP Douglas did throw for 260 yards without an INT.

Coastal Carolina is for real and the Phoenix found out yesterday. The first half ended at 10-0 Coastal Carolina, and the Chanticleers scored 21 unanswered to end the game. Elon receiver Kierre Brown did get 125 yards receiving in the loss.
