KENNESAW, Ga. (AP) — Elijah Davis rushed for 80 yards and two touchdowns, Zylan Perry added 104 yards rushing and another score and Louisiana-Lafayette beat Conference USA newcomer Kennesaw State 34-10 on Saturday to spoil the Owls’ first FBS home game in program history.
Louisiana-Lafayette (2-0, 1-0), which opened the season with a 40-10 victory over in-state Grambling, is 2-0 for the fifth time since 2000. The Ragin’ Cajuns have a week off before hosting Tulane.
Kennesaw State opened the scoring in the first quarter after a 16-play drive. But ULL scored the next 34 points before a fourth-quarter field goal by the Owls.
Three of Louisiana-Lafayette’s four touchdown plays were from 3-yards out or less. Davis scored ULL’s first touchdown with 6:02 left in the second quarter on a 1-yard run to cap an 80-yard drive. Davis also ended a 79-yard drive on another 1-yard run to make it 34-7 with 49 seconds left in the third.
Perry added a 19-yard TD run in the second and Ben Wooldridge found Robert Williams for a 3-yard score early in the third.
Wooldridge threw for 184 yards and a touchdown for ULL.
Kennesaw State (0-2, 0-1) was held to 12 first downs and 204 total yards.
It marked the 10th school that Louisiana-Lafayette has faced in the current Conference USA configuration. ULL is 72-71-7 all-time against current CUSA members.
