TULSA -- It was a far cry from last season's Conference USA championship game overtime thriller as East Carolina ran all over Tulsa in a 44-17 victory. The loss puts Golden Hurricane (4-6, 2-4) in jeopardy of missing out on a bowl for the first time in four seasons.
Dominique Lindsay ran for a career-high 172 yards, Darryl Freeney had a career-best 152 yards receiving and East Carolina maintained its lead in the C-USA East Division.
The Pirates (6-4, 5-1) dominated on offense in the first half and then sealed the game with three defensive touchdowns in the fourth quarter.
