CEDAR CITY, Utah (AP) — Quarterback Will Burns accounted for four total touchdowns and Floyd Chalk ran for a career-high 212 yards and Southern Utah used the second half to overpower UC Davis 38-17 on Saturday.
Burns was 13-of-20 passing for just 126 yards but had two touchdowns. On the ground, Burns ran for 98 yards on 11 carries and reached the end zone twice.
Chalk had a touchdown on his 26 carries as he bested his previous career-high 183 yards rushing set on Sept. 5 in a 47-42 win over Weber State.
Trailing 17-9 at halftime, Burns led a 13-play, 73-yard scoring drive that lasted eight minutes. It ended with his 1-yard pass to Joshua Accord. Burns ran it in for the two-point conversion to tie it.
Three minutes later, Burns threw a 6-yard touchdown to Accord and the Thunderbirds (3-4, 2-2) led for the remainder.
Nate Dahle threw for 282 yards, two touchdowns and an interception for UC Davis (4-3, 2-2) which entered as the 14th-ranked team in the Stats Perform FCS Top 25 poll.
