Thad Bishop led the way on the ground with 110 yards on 17 carries and a touchdown. Kinkead Dent was 8-for-12 in the air for 222 yards and 4 passing touchdowns. He also ran the ball 8 times for 43 yards and another TD. Webb Strickland, Thad Bishop, Max Harmon and Tae Stewart all had TD catches as Dent completed passes to seven different receivers||The JA defense was paced by Donovan Veazley (Soph-LB) as he registered 11 tackles, 4 Solo, 1.5 Sacks, and 2 Pass Break Ups.
