PLAY 1: BRIDGEWATER AT GETTYSBURG   PLAY 2: EMORY & HENRY AT FERRUM
Percent of Vote Earned: 17.47%
Description: Gettysburg scored with 3:05 to play to take a 32-26 lead, but junior Matt Johnson reached up and blocked the ensuing extra point to keep the margin at six points.  That allowed the Eagles to march down the field and score a touchdown of their own with 1:20 to play to take a 33-32 lead, which would end up being the final.
  Percent of Vote Earned: 23.37%
Description: With 1:43 to play in the third quarter, wideout Lucas Kirby sprawled out at the back of the end zone to haul in a 21-yard touchdown pass from Kevin Saxton to give E&H a 34-12 lead going into the fourth quarter.  That score effectively put the game out of reach.
 

 
PLAY 3: GUILFORD VS. GREENSBORO   PLAY 4: HAMPDEN-SYDNEY AT WABASH
Percent of Vote Earned: 15.43%
Description: After recovering a Guilford fumble, Greensboro made its way to the Quakers 23-yard line, but that would prove to be the farthest they'd get that drive and the whole game.  Defensive lineman Jordan Farmer came around the edge to sack the quarterback and caused a fumble, which was recovered by Greg Mello and returned 39 yards to the Greensboro 35-yard line.  Five plays later, Matt Pawlowski would throw his second touchdown pass to Adam Smith.
  Percent of Vote Earned: 12.54%
Description: In "The Gentlemen's Classic" at Wabash, the Tigers opened the game's scoring when quarterback Nash Nance connected with receiver Holton Walker on a 60-yard touchdown pass.  That was the first of two for the duo on the day.  In their careers, Nance and Walker have hooked up 29 times for touchdowns.

 

 
PLAY 5: WASHINGTON AND LEE AT AVERETT  
Percent of Vote Earned: 31.19%
Description: With 1:47 to play in the third quarter, defensive lineman Tim Joyce intercepted a pass that was tipped and bobbled twice.  After hauling it in, he scampered 34-yards before being tackled at the Averett three-yard line.  The interception was one of two on the day for the Generals' defense.
