The Lions were looking for their second conference win of the season and back to back road victories as well. SAGU struck first with a 12-yard touchdown pass from
Jordan Barlow to
Blayne Rowe; their lead was short lived as Lyon came down to score a touchdown of their own to tie the score 7-7. A couple rushing touchdowns by both teams brought the score to 14-13 with SAGU leading going into halftime. In the second half, a
Keaton Dudik 10-yard rushing touchdown put the Lions up 21-13; another touchdown by
Keaton Dudik in the fourth quarter extended the lead 27-13. The Lions defense was able to hold off LU for most of the second half but late in the fourth quarter LU scored which cut the lead to seven points; 27-20. A late hold by the Lions defense forced a turnover and sealed the victory for SAGU with a final score 27-20.
