Scores in opener Benjamin recorded five receptions (on seven targets) for 65 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 62-28 win against Northwestern State. Impact Benjamin picked up right where he left off last season, catching a 36-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter, then scoring a 66-yard punt return touchdown two minutes later. He led the team with seven targets which is no surprise given the great connection he had at the end of last season with Kirk Francis, who was named the starting quarterback ahead of Thursday's opener. In Francis' three starts last season, Benjamin caught 22 passes (on 37 targets) for 393 yards and four touchdowns.
