Tulsa rolls over Ball State in wet GMAC Bowl |
Tulsa raced through the rain to another GMAC Bowl win and a couple more records, too. Tarrion Adams rushed for 207 yards and three touchdowns in the 45-13 victory over No. 23 Ball State on a soggy Tuesday night. The Golden Hurricane (11-3) finished with a school-record 11 victories.Adams passed Micheal Gunter to become Tulsa's career rushing leader. Tulsa had 439 yards rushing and 632 overall - hardly slowing down a bit by rain that first formed puddles and then covered nearly the entire field during a second-half deluge."We expected to win. We weren't going to have it any other way," Golden Hurricane coach Todd Graham said. "I felt like where we had an advantage on them was how physical we are."We got into a rhythm early and we had them off-balance on some things."David Johnson passed for 193 yards and three touchdowns, most of that to freshman Damaris Johnson. Tulsa kicker Jarod Tracy became the school's career scoring leader. |
