Led by senior quarterback Matt Hunt, the Tigers clinched the game with an incredible two-minute drill.

Hunt finished the game 19-35 with a 241 passing, 185 yards rushing, 2 passing touchdowns, and 3 rushing. Among other top performers were sophomore wide receiver Ian Good with 9 receptions for 192 yards and a touchdown, as well as Thomas Gray, who was the leader of the defense with 10 tackles.
