\"\"

After a 49-7 pasting a week ago, Omaha\u00a0turned in a resilient performance, fighting\u00a0back from deficits of 7-0, 14-7, 21-14, 27-21, 34-28 and holding a lead late into the third quarter, before running out of gas in the fourth.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In his first career start at quarterback, and just eight days after signing with the Beef, Houghton accounted for 163 total yards and five touchdowns. With Houghton at the helm, the rebuilt Beef offense looked vastly different compared to\u00a0when the\u00a0teams played two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

In game one, the Beef passed for 166 yards and 4 TDs, while rushing for 42 yards and 2 TDs, en route to a season high 42 points.<\/p>\n

This time, the Beef\u00a0running game was dominant, establishing season-highs in rush attempts (26), rushing yards (127), rushing TDs (5), while passing for 75 yards and a touchdown, and scoring 42 points again.<\/p>\n

Heading into the game, Beef linebacker Jesse Robertson’s 38 tackles led the CIF. The week two CIF Defensive Player of the Week\u00a0added 11 tackles and a tackle for loss against the Force, and spearheaded a defense that forced season-highs in turnovers (2) and tackles for loss (5).<\/p>\n

The “Beef-ense” held the Force offense to 14 first half points. But\u00a0two missed field goal returns for touchdowns by Wichita Force wide receiver Clarence Anderson\u00a0stole early momentum and kept Wichita in the game.<\/p>\n

His first return was a 57-yarder with 6:36 left in\u00a0the first quarter. His second, a 58-yard return, came with no time remaining in the second quarter\u00a0and gave his team a 27-21 halftime lead.<\/p>\n

But the Beef offense responded with a 3-play, 25-yard drive\u00a0that\u00a0culminated with a perfectly placed 17-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Brian Boro (a former UNO Maverick who joined the team\u00a0a day earlier), giving the Beef their first lead of the game.<\/p>\n

As Houghton’s confidence grew, the offense settled in and set the tone in the third quarter, looking as good as it has all season, deftly\u00a0mixing passing plays with hand-offs to Allen Daniels and Steven Rush. Haughton’s\u00a0mobility added another dimension to an offense that had struggled to stay on the field in previous weeks.<\/p>\n

After the Force reclaimed the lead via 9-yard receiving TD for Hubbard, Houghton struck again with a 4-yard run for touchdown. The 35-34 lead halfway through the third quarter was the Beef’s last lead of the game.\u00a0Reigning league MVP Joe Kassanavoid added a touchdown reception late in the third to give his team a lead they would not again relinquish.<\/p>\n

From that point on, every\u00a0time the Force needed a big play,\u00a0Hubbard delivered.<\/p>\n

From 6:35 in the third to to 5:46 in the fourth, the Ottawa University product scored three touchdowns, two via run play, one via reception. Hubbard’s stat line was gaudy – 15 touches for 76 yards and 5 TDs.<\/p>\n

Houghton was game, though, and rallied with an 8-yard run to end the third and pull the Beef to within 42-47. But a 4-yard run by Hubbard with 5:46 left sealed the game.<\/p>\n

The two players accounted for 10 of the 15 TDs scored; Houghton with four rushing and one passing, Hubbard with 3 rushing and 2 receiving.<\/p>\n

Sides of Beef<\/strong><\/p>\n

– LB\u00a0Davon Bridges stalled a promising Wichita drive when he recovered his own forced fumble at the Omaha 6-yard line on a Force\u00a01st-and-goal.<\/p>\n

– Allen Daniels had 118 total yards: 53 rushing, 41 on kickoff returns and 24 receiving.<\/p>\n

– DB Michael Pace’s interception was his first of the year.<\/p>\n

– The Beef were only 4 of 8\u00a0on redzone scoring opportunities, but scored 4 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

– The Beef’s time of possession (34:16) exceeded the Force by\u00a09:32.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
