Quarterback Zach Calzada threw for 300 yards and four touchdowns, and the Cardinals racked up 573 yards of offense to cruise to the win.
After three straight games against tough Southland Conference opposition, it might be expected if Incarnate Word struggled in its game against Houston Christian Saturday afternoon at Gayle & Tom Benson Stadium . That wasn't the case, though, as No. 9 UIW used its high-octane offense and an extremely aggressive defense to thump HCU 45-20 to win its sixth straight game and run the Cardinals ' record in the Southland Conference to 4-0.
We have a collective understanding as a program that we have a standard that we need to play up to. We understand we can control ourselves and the standard that we play to, no matter who the opponent is.' Incarnate Word took control late in the first half, scoring two touchdowns in the final 1:50 to go from being up 17-6 to taking a 31-6 lead into the locker room.
