The game started out slow, with two Rebel drives stalling in the red zone. On the first drive, an incompletion by quarterback Trinidad Chambliss on 4th-and-goal resulted in a turnover on downs. The second drive ended on a missed 47-yard field goal attempt by kicker Lucas Carneiro.
The Cougars took a 7-0 lead with a 26-yard touchdown pass from Zevi Eckhaus to freshman receiver Landon Wright.
