Tied at 21 with less than three minutes left, the Bears were trying to avoid the 0-3 start.

They weren't going to let that happen.

Calan Crowder's two-yard touchdown run with 1:53 left in the game was enough to give the Bears a 28-21 lead and their first win of the season.

Jared Beshore put the game away with a game-sealing interception with 46 seconds remaining.

The Bears went into the second half trailing 10-7 but figured things out during the break.
