  "account": "Pawtucket – Coach Jim Fleming of the University of Rhode Island was not content to settle for a field goal to maintain their lead in the fourth quarter at Centreville Bank Stadium. Instead, the Rams' Terrence Campbell scored a touchdown from 1 yard out to ignite URI in the final 15 minutes of their 31-10 victory over Elon. The Rams capitalized on five turnovers and found offensive rhythm in the second half, posting 202 total yards and 12 first downs in the half after struggling in the first. URI's defense also played well, allowing only 44 yards on offense to Elon. Starting quarterback Tyler Budge threw for 178 yards and two touchdowns despite missing his first completion until the second quarter. The Rams' defense allowed just 4.6 yards per play and had four interceptions in their first game with such a result since 2013.",
