South Florida did it again. For the second consecutive week, the Bulls came back from a double-digit second-half deficit to win against a Power Five opponent.
Last week it was against Georgia Tech; this week it was Illinois.
After trailing the Illini by 12 points in the fourth quarter, Darnell Salomon’s 50-yard touchdown catch from quarterback Blake Barnett with just over two minutes remaining provided the margin of victory in the 25-19 win.
Salomon’s game-winning reception is this week’s U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish “Catch of the Week.”
For the day, Salomon, a junior wide receiver from Miami, had five catches for 95 yards and two touchdowns, while Barnett passed for 411 yards.
Remember … for the tailgate tent or the pre-game party, U. S. Farm-Raised Catfish is always “the winning catch.”
The Catfish Institute, or TCI, was formed in 1986 by catfish farmers and feed manufacturers to raise consumer awareness of the positive qualities of U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish. Since its formation, U.S. per capita consumption has more than doubled.
U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish is a sustainable and environmentally friendly seafood product. The National Audubon Society, Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Environmental Defense all recommend U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish as a safe environmental choice. To find out more, visit www.uscatfish.com.
