The Tigers got on the scoreboard in the third quarter, but the Knights added another TD to end the 3rd quarter with a 49-6 lead. Loveland added 26 points in the 4th quarter to give them 32 for the game, but again, Kings answered with two more touchdowns of their own completing the scoring for the night bringing the final score to 63-32.

The Knights gained a total of 25 first downs while amassing 464 total yards of offense – 214 in the air and 250 on the ground.  Loveland totaled 19 first downs gaining 392 yards – 336 yards passing and only 56 yards running.
