Stop me if you’re heard this before — after a spectacular start, the offense stalled before shooting itself in the foot after intermission with self-inflicted errors.
Cam Akers was the hero of this game and earned his ice bath, toting the ball a whopping (and quite frankly unfair) 36 times for 193 yards — a 5.4 yard per rush average — and two touchdowns. Akers also finished with five receptions for 55 yards and another score.
James Blackman was generally good, but had some mistakes, finishing 30 of 40 for 282 yards, good for 7.
