Rhode Island, ranked No. 9 in the FCS coaches poll, has earned the league's automatic berth to the FCS playoffs for the first time and has finished a conference season undefeated for the first time since the 1985 team went 5-0 in the Yankee Conference.
The Rams (10-2, 8-0) are one win shy of tying the program record of 11 wins, established last season.
In a matchup of first versus last in the CAA, Rhode Island rolled up 359 yards in the first half and led 24-7 at halftime. The Rams got a 65-yard touchdown run from Littleton on their second play from scrimmage, a 28-yard TD run by Brendon Barrow and Littleton ran 6 yards for a touchdown, all in the first quarter.
Conner Kenyon, who passed for 258 yards, had a touchdown pass in each of the last two quarters. Greg Gaines III had 139 receiving yards on eight catches.
