Isaiah Myers - Scores in Saturday's lossMyers had four receptions (on six targets) for 82 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 59-24 defeat against South Florida.

ImpactMyers scored his third touchdown of the season Saturday, a 15-yard catch from Deshawn Purdie in the fourth quarter. It marked his first touchdown since Week 4 at IU. He also set season highs in catches, targets and yards as he came into the game with just seven catches through nine games. The 49ers attempted 39 passes in the game, an abnormally high number for the team, so it's unlikely that Myers will be able to replicate this volume during the final two games of the season.

Cartevious Norton - Scores twice SaturdayNorton posted 10 rushes for 30 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in their only target for nine yards during Saturday's 59-24 defeat against South Florida.

ImpactAlthough Norton only gained 30 yards Saturday, he scored two touchdowns which gave him a solid performance. He has now scored multiple touchdowns in three of his last five games. He faces two very favorable matchups to end the season, starting Saturday at FAU.

Deshawn Purdie - Struggles in blowout lossPurdie was 17-for-39 passing for 256 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 59-24 loss versus South Florida. He also had nine rushes for -11 yards and two los...

ImpactIn his first game since being benched versus Tulane, Purdie started Saturday's game and had a very inefficient outing. He failed to complete 50 percent of his passes in his third straight start and turned the ball over a season-high four times, two of which were returned for touchdowns within a three-minute span in the third quarter. It was a rough outing for the true freshman and it would not be surprising to see the 49ers turn elsewhere for Saturday's game at FAU.

Ta'Ron Keith - Scores in win over CharlotteKeith had eight rushes for 45 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 59-24 win over Charlotte.

ImpactKeith scored his sixth touchdown of the season Saturday, a 16-yard rush in the first quarter. He has now found the end zone in three of his last four games. He was one of five Bulls to receive at least six carries in the game as the team combined for 425 yards and six touchdowns on the ground. Although he still sits behind Kelley Joiner on the depth chart, his knack for finding the end zone gives him value, especially in games the Bulls are favored in which is the case Saturday versus Tulsa.

Kelley Joiner - Excellent in blowout winJoiner tallied nine carries for 140 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 59-24 win versus Charlotte.

ImpactJoiner had a highly productive outing Saturday as he and his teammates ran all over the Charlotte defense. Despite only receiving nine carries, Joiner rushed for 140 yards and two touchdowns, a 54-yard rush in the third quarter and a 45-yard run in the fourth quarter. Despite being one of five Bulls to receive at least six carries, Joiner appears to still be the lead back. He faces a favorable matchup Saturday versus Tulsa.

Nay'Quan Wright - Scores twice SaturdayWright tallied seven carries for 43 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in all two targets for 50 yards during Saturday's 59-24 victory over Charlotte.

ImpactWright was one of five Bulls to receive at least six carries Saturday and was very productive with his touches. He scored a pair of touchdowns, bringing him up to five on the season, and added 50 yards in the passing game on two catches. It was a very unusual game as the Bulls ran the ball for over 400 yards. It appears Wright still sits behind Kelley Joiner in the depth chart, but he is still involved in the offense and faces a favorable matchup Saturday versus Tulsa.

Bryce Archie - Fairly quiet in blowout winArchie completed 11 of 16 passes for 126 yards and one interception during Saturday's 59-24 win against Charlotte. He also had six rushes for 72 yards.

ImpactArchie had a decent day in Saturday's win but was not asked to do too much. The Bulls ran all over Charlotte as the team combined to rush for 425 yards and six touchdowns on 48 carries. Archie ran for 72 of those yards, but only attempted 16 passes and did not score a touchdown, so it was a disappointing outing for him on an individual level. Archie is set to start again Saturday versus Tulsa if Byrum Brown (foot) remains out.
