The Majors out gained the Engineers in total offense, but three turnovers and five costly second half penalties led to just 61 yards of offense in the second half for the Majors. The Engineers scored three unanswered touchdowns to open the second half, the third on Charlie Key's SCAC leading 15th touchdown of the season.

Quarterback Billy Bob Orsagh had a season-high 298 yards through the air for the Majors connecting on a 26-yard touchdown pass to tight end Nick Madison and a 30-yarder to Eric McCarty. Orsagh also had 34 yards rushing.

Engineers quarterback Cameron Hummel completed 50 percent of his passes for 262 yards and four touchdowns through the air. Hummel also had 64 yards rushing. Key finished with 67 yards on the ground and one score to go with 32 yards receiving and one touchdown.

Freshman wideout Matt Foisy had the most receiving yards, 138 on three catches, of his young career, but Foisy was stripped of the ball on the one-yard line by the Engineers Preseason All-American cornerback Brett Bueltel, who recovered the fumble, negating what would have been a 98-yard touchdown in the first quarter.

McCarty finished with 67 yards receiving for the Majors including an outstanding, full extension grab that kept a key Majors drive going. The Engineers kept the Majors ground game in check allowing 84 yards total to Tyson Roy and Eryc Lorino.

David Cutter kept the pressure on Hummel collecting two sacks, one of which was a bone-jarring hit that forced a fumble that would be recovered by the Majors. End Cedric Lawrence sacked Hummel once and Marcus Harris picked off a pass in the first quarter. Ross Rutledge had nine tackles and two for loss. Team leading tackler Ray Kline had ten tackles bringing his season total to 40.
