KINGSTON, R.I. (WPRI) — Devin Farrell passed for one touchdown and ran for another and Rhode Island rallied in the fourth quarter to beat Brown 31-21 on Saturday in the 108th meeting of the in-state rivals. Rhode Island (5-1) has won the last six meetings against the Bears (2-2), snapping a tie for the longest win streak in the series. After the Bears (2-2) failed to convert a fourth-and-1 at the Rhode Island 34, the Rams took two plays to score and take a 24-21 lead early in the fourth quarter with Deon Silas running 21 yards and Shawn Harris Jr. following with a 45-yard TD. Farrell's passes of 30 and 22 yards led to his 5-yard touchdown run, capping a nine-play, 80-yard drive that took up nearly six minutes to give the Rams a cushion late. The drive started after Brown reached the URI 10 but Gabe Salomons blocked a field-goal attempt. Farrell was 21 of 32 for 244 yards passing with the TD but was intercepted twice, including one by Noble Cooper III, who returned a pick 41 yards to set up Brown's first score in the game's early minutes. Marquis Buchanan made nine catches for 107 yards and a score for Rhode Island, ranked 21st in the FCS coaches' poll. Jake Willcox threw for 165 yards and was intercepted once for Brown. Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox. Subscribe Now 12 Sports this Week SIGN UP NOW
