Impact Brown was questionable entering this game due to a dental problem after losing a tooth in the season opener against Florida A&M on Monday. However, it's safe to say he didn't look bothered by that injury. Brown is expected to be fine going forward and should operate as one of USF's main offensive options as long as he stays healthy.
