T.J. Edwards II accounted for five touchdowns and the Tulsa Oilers pulled off a 48-42 upset of the San Diego Strikeforce on Saturday night at the BOK Center. 

Edwards II was 12-of-9 passing for 135 yards and two TDs and also ran in three more scores. San Diego’s Nate Davis was the game’s more prolific passer, though, completing 27 of 43 attempts for 195 yards and five TDs. Edwards II was the game’s leading rusher with 26 yards on seven carries. 

Tulsa (2-3 overall, 0-2 Eastern Conference) never quite broke the game open, but also never trailed. Leading 8-7 early in the first quarter, Tulsa’s Mike Carrigan returned a kickoff to the house for an early two-score lead.

After the Strikeforce tied the game at 21-21 early in the third quarter on a Shane Hooks TD grab, Edwards II answered with a short scoring scamper. 

After San Diego once again tied it, this time at 28-28, Edwards II uncorked a 30-yard TD pass to Jerminic Smith Sr. to put Tulsa up for good. 

Soon after, Edwards II dove in for a score to put the Oilers up two scores – a margin San Diego could not overcome. 

In Week 10 the Oilers will travel to Jacksonville to face the Sharks (Sunday, 4 p.m. ET, Yahoo Sports), while San Diego heads into a bye week.
