Louisiana Tech vs UTEP

Louisiana Tech dominated UTEP 30-11 at the Sun Bowl behind a defense that returned two fourth-quarter interceptions for touchdowns. The Bulldogs built an early lead on Marques Singleton Jr.'s touchdown catch before Jakari Foster and Alonzo Jackson Jr. sealed the win with pick-sixes. Despite a late touchdown connection from Skyler Locklear to Wondame Davis Jr., the Miners couldn't overcome Tech's defensive onslaught and Clay Thevenin's fourth-quarter rushing score.
