LAST TIME OUT
New Hampshire used a pair of fourth quarter scores to edge Campbell 24-10 at Barker-Lane Stadium. The Wildcats and Camels battled to a one score game until Matt Vezza's six-yard touchdown run with 1:48 to play, handing Campbell its first Homecoming loss 2021.

UNH led 6-3 at the half after Nick Reed's 50-yard field goal, his second make of the day, and Reed extended the lead with a third kick, this time a 37-yarder, to make it 9-3 with 11:20 on the clock in the third. Campbell then answered with a four-play, 75-yard drive, with a 48-yard Mike Chandler II pass to Daniel Lopes, setting up a JJ Cowan nine-yard TD run to give the Camels their first lead of the day, 10-9.

Reed lined up for a fourth field goal try on the ensuing possession, a 16-play, 74-yard march that erased 9:00 of clock, but the kick was blocked by CU's Brandon Guzman, coming off the left edge to maintain the lead at the end of the third quarter.

Campbell's next three drives, however, netted nine total yards, while UNH used another nine-play drive, going 57 yards in 4:29 with Vezza's four-yard touchdown pass to Myles Thomason, set up by a 42-yard pass to Caleb Burke, put the Wildcats in front 17-10 with 8:30 to play before Vezza's clinching TD run.
