Louisiana Tech (4-1, 2-0) went on the road Saturday night and defeated Rice (0-5, 0-1) by a score of 23-20 in OT.

Let’s take a look at the snap count totals for the Bulldogs. Tech ran 63 plays in the game offensively.
Tech rode the hot hand at running back with Justin Henderson garnering most of the load over Jaqwis Dancy. Henderson finished with 91 total yards and a touchdown in the win.
Wayne Toussant continues to see his role increase at receiver behind Isaiah Graham. The redshirt freshman caught his first two passes of the season for 26 yards.
