Miami swats the Delaware State Hornets in emphatic 62-20 win

Saturday afternoon was a beautiful day for football in Oxford, Ohio, with sunny skies, perfect temperatures for football and not a drop of water in the air as the Miami RedHawks (2-2) and the Delaware State Hornets (0-4) met for a contest at Yager Stadium. There would be no threat of a FCS upset on this Football Alumni/Hall of Fame Day, as the RedHawks easily handled the Hornets in a crowd-pleasing 62-20 victory. Rashad Amos got the proceedings started early, with a five-yard rushing touchdown set up by Gage Larvadain's 46-yard jet rush on the prior play to put Miami up 7-0 with 12:10 to go in the first quarter. The Hornets would catch the Miami defense off-guard on the next possession, as Marqui Adams would connect with Wade Inge for a 50-yard touchdown through the air two plays removed from a second-and-23 forced by a tackle-for-loss fumble to even the scoreboard at 7.
