Louisiana quarterback Terrance Broadway turned in a performance reminiscent of Johnny Manziel in the Ragin' Cajuns 43-34 bowl victory over East Carolina.
Playing in his own backyard in the New Orleans Bowl, Broadway totaled 424 yards (316 passing, 108 rushing) and two touchdowns (one passing, one rushing). His only blemish was an interception early in the fourth quarter.
Broadway was the player of the game in a contest that saw more than 1,000 yards of combined offense. With help from tailback Alonzo Harris and kicker Brett Baer, he never let the Pirates enjoy a lead.
