There were plenty of plays to choose from in James Madison's thriller of a win over Weber State Friday night, but the biggest plays of them all came with just a few ticks left on the clock. First, Bryan Schor hit Riley Stapleton for a 40-yard touchdown and Trai Sharp scored the tying two-point conversion. After a defensive stop, the offense got into position for Ethan Ratke to hit the game-winning field goal as time expired for a 31-28 Dukes victory.

Weber State gave James Madison everything they could handle Friday night, and the play from sophomore running back Kevin Smith was electric, including this 81-yard catch-and-run bomb that gave Weber a lead in the third quarter.

NDSU​ was all over Wofford in the quarterfinals, and the Bison offense put on a show in the first half. This Easton Stick to Seth Wilson touchdown stands out among the spectacular plays out of the NDSU offense.

Wofford​'s fourth down conversion

Wofford is playing aggressive from the start! Terriers get a big gain on 4th and short on the opening drive

The Terriers had a chance early in the game against North Dakota State, and picked up a huge fourth down conversion in the first quarter on the way to a 3-0 lead. Unfortunately for Wofford, big plays were too few and too far between.

Jake Wieneke's one-hander

Career catch 275 is a beauty for Jake Wieneke! #SCTop10

SDSU made a ton of plays on offense, but not many were of this degree of difficulty. Star receiver Jake Wieneke went up with one hand in stride to make a magnificent catch.

Knight-Presley for 75 and a score

New Hampshire gets on the board!

SDSU 35, UNH 7 – 3Q

It was an offensive struggle for the Wildcats against the Jackrabbits, but New Hampshire finally got on the board in the third quarter against SDSU on this Trevor Knight to Kieran Presley 75-yard touchdown.

PJ Hall ends the game

DENIED!!!
PJ Hall shuts the door and gets the ball back for SHSU

While Sam Houston State's offense normally gets all the accolades (and yes, it was good again) it was the defense and PJ Hall who finished off the game, blowing up this reverse in the final two minutes on fourth down.

Shaquil Terry was electric

Another big play from Shaquil Terry! A 50 yard rush leads to a touchdown and the Owls cut into the deficit

Though it came in a losing effort, Shaquil Terry put on a show in the Kennesaw​-SHSU matchup, taking 5 carries for well over 100 yards, including this 50-yarder.
