The Butler football team improved to 5-0 on Saturday afternoon by recording a 40-6 victory over Morehead State. Reagan Andrew accounted for four touchdowns over Homecoming Weekend, helping the Bulldog post 482 yards of total offense.
 
Andrew completed 11 of his 12 pass attempts for 172 yards and two scores while adding 58 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Nick Howard also just had one incomplete pass on the day to record 13 passing yards and 61 rushing yards. BU's rushing leader was Ershod Jasey II with 81 yards on just 11 carries.
 
BU rushed for 297 yards and three scores against the Eagle defense. Four different student-athletes had 50 or more yards on the ground and 12 different Bulldogs hauled in a reception.
 
The balanced BU attack gave the home team a 20-0 lead at halftime. Andrew was 7-for-8 in the first half with each completion going to a different target. 139 of his 172 passing yards came in the first 30 minutes to give BU a large lead.
 
The biggest play of the first half was a 71-yard completion from Andrew to Ethan Loss that set up a Billy Dozier rushing TD. That BU scoring drive covered 97 yards in just four plays. The final score of the first half came very late in the second quarter with Andrew hitting William Enneking with a 14-yard touchdown pass.
 
The 'Dawgs posted 230 yards of total offense in the first half while limiting the Eagles to 112. MSU did not convert a single third down conversion while BU went 4-for-5.
 
Ershod Jasey II was fantastic for the Bulldogs in the third quarter. He gained 30 rushing yards on just three attempts and would add a 25-yard TD reception to make the game 27-0. Trevon Brown scored for the second consecutive game in the early stages of the fourth and Andrew's final TD run would take us to the final score of 40-6.
 
The Bulldog defense did their job on Saturday limiting the opposition to just 258 yards of offense. The Eagles broke up the shutout with just under seven minutes remaining in the contest.
 
Nick Bafia was the top BU tackler with seven in the game. He also led the Bulldog secondary with two pass breakups. Shadon Shannon came up with six tackles and Will Mason was credited with four.
 
Jeremiah Jackson impacted the game by blocking a field goal for BU. He also had two pass breakups and three tackles. The lone BU sack went to Jack Burch.
 
Butler returns to action next Saturday with a road game at Drake. The Annual Battle of the Bulldogs contest will kick at 2 p.m. eastern, 1 central.
