Against the Owls, Jackets could not have scripted a better first quarter offensively, putting up three touchdowns in three possessions. An 18-yard rushing touchdown from Haynes King, a 24-yard touchdown pass from King to Malik Rutherford on a screen pass and a 37-yard touchdown pass from King to Isaiah Canion gave the Jackets a commanding 21-0 lead.
