Prairie View A&M Scores 28 in the Third, Routs Texas Southern 52-14
Prairie View A&M led 17-7 at the half and scored 28 points in the third quarter. That is the whole story of a 52-14 game, and it started before the offense touched the ball.
Jahbari Kuykendall returned the opening kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown at 14:45 of the first quarter, and the Panthers never looked back. Tevin Carter hit Damien McDaniel from 24 yards out for 14-0, Ethan Eddins added a 37-yard field goal for 17-0, and Cam'Ron McCoy got Texas Southern on the board with a 17-yard run in the second quarter. Texas Southern did not score again until Ri'Jon Hammond ran 8 yards with five seconds left, long after anyone was checking.
Then came the third quarter: Carter ran 24 yards for a touchdown, threw 39 yards to Travon Jones, threw 46 yards to Chase Bingmon, and Bingmon scored from 2 yards out, with 9:01, 6:41, 3:50 and 1:00 on the clock. Four scores, 28 points, and 17-7 was 45-7. Jones added a 2-yard catch early in the fourth to make it 52-7.
The box score backs it up. Texas Southern ran the ball 50 times for 216 yards and threw for 102, and lost two fumbles. Prairie View's defense was credited with seven sacks. Prairie View had 397 yards on just 25 rushes, and it did not turn the ball over. Both teams are 1-1 after the game.
For fantasy, Carter led the day with 40.4, and the Panthers' top three were Carter, Bingmon (27.9) and Jones (18.6).
