Columbia extended their home winning streak to three games thanks to a huge performance from Cade Thoe. The Roughnecks simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat the Sweeny Bulldogs 41-7 with plenty of help from Thoe, who threw for 240 yards and a pair of touchdowns while completing 73.9% of his passes, and also punched in one score on the ground. His passing game has become a key predictor of Columbia's success: the team is 4-1 when his passer rating is 100 or higher, but only 1-2 otherwise.

Special teams was a major factor in the game for Columbia, racking up 11 points in total. The biggest highlight from special teams (and perhaps the team as a whole) came courtesy of Mudassir Abdullah, who ran a punt back for a touchdown.

Columbia's record is now 5-3. As for Sweeny, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 3-4.

Coincidentally, Columbia and Sweeny will both be playing La Marque the next time they take the field. The Bulldogs will host the Cougars at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, while the Roughnecks will head out to face them at 7:00 p.m. on the 31st.
