Akron Routs Robert Morris 45-10 as Broughton Throws Four Scores
Cibastian Broughton went 23 of 27. Four of those completions were touchdowns, and he ran 13 times for 71 yards on top of it. That is 40.2 Promethium points from one quarterback, and Akron beat Robert Morris 45-10.
The Zips scored first on a 41-yard pass from Broughton to Sean Patrick. Robert Morris answered at the start of the second quarter with a 43-yard touchdown from Carson Haggard to Galen Combs, and that 7-7 tie was the only one of the day. Then Broughton found Elijah Alexander from 25 yards for 14-7 and Miles Burris from 6 yards for 21-7, and Lucca Valens kicked a 22-yard field goal for Robert Morris on the last play of the half to make it 21-10.
That was the end of Robert Morris scoring. Matthew Schramm kicked a 38-yard field goal, Jordan Gant scored from a yard out to make it 31-10 late in the third, and Broughton hit Alexander again from three yards in the fourth. Brayden Roggow finished the scoring with a 15-yard run with 3:27 left. Robert Morris never got closer than 11 after halftime, and the final margin was 35, the kind of number that ends a conversation instead of starting one.
Akron had 523 yards, 282 through the air and 241 on 39 rushing attempts, with one lost fumble and no interceptions. The Zips are 1-1 and Robert Morris is 0-1.
The fantasy story is short. Broughton was the top scorer by 17 points, Patrick added 23.2 on a mix of carries and catches, and Alexander scored twice for 22.5. All three set season highs.
