- Key plays included Underwood’s 38-yard touchdown run and Jyaire Hill’s 24-yard interception return that set up the game-winning touchdown by Jordan Marshall late in the fourth quarter.
- Freshman Savion Hiter showed promise as a receiver with 41 yards on three catches, while Jordan Marshall struggled to gain momentum on the ground despite scoring the winning touchdown.
