Lindsay Scott Jr. celebrated with the rest of his Incarnate Word team on Saturday night in Mackay Stadium in Reno and he had every reason to. The Cardinals quarterback had just led his squad, who went in ranked #8 in the FCS, to maybe their most impressive win in school history. He had strung together one heck of a game, throwing for four touchdowns, as UIW left Nevada stunned on the wrong end of a 55-41 shootout. It may have been the Cardinals' finest hour.
Despite their eventual success, the game got off on the wrong foot for Incarnate Word.
