GMAC Bowl: Tulsa 45, Ball State 13
Rain is good weather for Golden Hurricane

Tarrion Adams rushes for 207 yards, three TDs

By John Zenor
Associated Press

MOBILE, ALA.: Tulsa raced through the rain to another GMAC Bowl win and a couple more records, too.

Tarrion Adams rushed for 207 yards and three touchdowns in the 45-13 victory over No. 23 Ball State on a soggy Tuesday night. The Golden Hurricane (11-3) finished with a school-record 11 victories.

Adams passed Micheal Gunter to become Tulsa's career rushing leader. Tulsa had 439 yards rushing and 632 overall — despite rain that first formed puddles and then covered nearly the entire field during a second-half deluge.

David Johnson passed for 193 yards and three touchdowns, most of that to freshman Damaris Johnson. Tulsa kicker Jarod Tracy became the school's career scoring leader.

Tulsa's 63-7 win over Bowling Green in last year's GMAC was the most lopsided bowl game in NCAA history. This was another runaway thanks to the nation's No. 2 offense and a capitalistic defense.

Ball State (12-2) fell to 0-5 in bowl games after recording a school-record 12 wins.

Damaris Johnson supplied many of the big plays for Tulsa's no-huddle offense and had 274 all-purpose yards. He had 135 yards receiving, 76 yards rushing — including a tackle-breaking 62-yarder in the fourth quarter — and returned three kicks for 63 yards.

Adams needed just 19 carries, though one was a season-long 56-yard touchdown scamper. Three of his teammates ran for at least 58 yards as well.

The Cardinals had been giving up just 142 yards a game on the ground and 348 total.
