Game Highlights

 

Albert connected with Andrew Flory on a 38-yard touchdown pass on the Tigers second possession to give them an early 7-0 lead which they would never relinquish. He had a couple of key fourth down runs to set up touchdowns as the Tigers built a 20-0 halftime lead. The Tigers led 30-0 before Lindenwood found the endzone midway through the fourth quarter.

The Tiger defense was superb, picking off three passes including one returned 43 yards for a touchdown by freshman linebacker Jose Delgado. The Tigers allowed 268 yards off offense to Lindenwood, who had just one possession in FHSU territory in the first half and just one trip inside the redzone the entire game.
