Wright caught an 8-yard scoring strike from Houser to make it 21-0 going into the second quarter.

Owls starting quarterback Cam Fancher left the game with an apparent shoulder injury in the second quarter and did not return. Backup Kasen Weisman, a transfer from Colorado, was 20-of-35 passing for 188 yards and two touchdowns and added a team-high 41 yards rushing on six carries. Weisman led a 14-play, 91-yard drive that came to an end when Gavin Gibson intercepted a pass in the end zone.

Jabari Smith Jr. caught a 2-yard touchdown pass from Weisman with about 6 minutes to go in the second quarter and CJ Campbell Jr. added a 2-yard TD reception that capped the scoring with 1:07 to play.
