Defense

Cameron Watts gave Albany State a 14-0 lead in the annual Fountain City Classic before many of the fans had even found their seats. Watts began the day by returning the opening kickoff 93 yards for a touchdown. Just three plays later, he made his second impact play of the day by returning an interception 53 yards for a touchdown. Both plays occurred within the first minute of the game. He later added a second interception that was returned 35 yards and came up just two yards shy of this third touchdown of the day.

Special Teams
Devin Ross, DB, Valdosta State

With Valdosta State leading 21-13 in a competitive first half, NGU lined up for a field goal attempt with just a few seconds remaining in the half. The field goal was blocked and Ross was there to scoop up the loose ball and return it 66 yards for a touchdown. The second quarter clock expired during the play.
