Key Moment
  • The Bulldogs had back-to-back drives in the second half that reached the red zone, but were unable to score a touchdown.
How it Happened
  • On the Bears' second drive, they started at midfield and then produced a six-play drive that resulted in a nine-yard rushing touchdown (7-0) seven minutes into the first quarter.
  • Brown started a drive at the end of the first quarter, then the Bears tallied a nine-play drive, where they punched it in for a rushing touchdown on 4th and 2 at the 12:16 mark of the second quarter (14-0).
  • Bryant would answer with a good drive of its own but a holding penalty derailed the drive late. The Bulldogs converted a pair of third downs but a holding call on 3rd-and-6 at the Brown 18 halted the drive. A sack on the following play knocked Bryant out of field goal position.
  • The Bears would tally a seven-play drive that saw a 30-yard gain on 3rd and three. Brown scored a touchdown on a one-yard direct snap with five minutes left in the half (21-0).
  • The Bulldogs responded with a six-play drive that saw Shamar Fowles catch a ten-yard pass, followed by a 17-yard reception for Sean Wilson Jr. on second and long. That led to a 17-yard touchdown for Fowles on a wide receiver screen at the 3:36 mark of the second quarter (21-7).
  • Brown was driving in the final two minutes of the half and reached the red zone before Olatunde Mkparu jumped the ball for the interception with 30 seconds left, ending the scoring chance (21-7).
  • Bryant began the second half with a 15-play drive that was stopped in the red zone leading to a 31-yard field goal from Nicholas Stoyanovich, cutting the deficit to eleven (21-10) with eight minutes left in the third quarter.
  • The Bulldogs' defense forced a three-and-out, and then Bryant drove down the field on a 15-play drive that saw a fourth-down conversion and a 21-yard reception for Jose Leon on third down. The Black and Gold were stopped in the red zone, leading to a 21-yard field goal from Stoyanovich, making it a one-possession game with a minute left in the third quarter (21-13).
  • Brown would counter with an eleven play drive that resulted in a one-yard rushing touchdown with 9:40 left in the game (28-13).
