The Buffs trailed early 23-0 due to untimely turnovers, and 30-7 at the half. The Buffs outscored Kingsville 34-31 from the second quarter on, but the damage had already been done.

Senior Junior Pomee contributed for a game high 115 yards receiving with two touchdowns and senior Chris Gilchrist had 108 yards with a touchdown. Senior running back Devon Paye rushed for 86 yards on 16 carries and caught two passes for 95 yards with a touchdown.
