Garner, a redshirt freshman, had 104 yards rushing on just nine carries. His 19-yard touchdown late in the third quarter made Louisiana-Lafayette's lead 28-14. Steven Blanco added 113 yards rushing and scored a touchdown late in the fourth. The Warhawks (2-8, 2-4) struck first on a 1-yard touchdown from Austin Carlisle, who ran for 102 yards on 21 carries. Bryson Roland added 111 yards rushing. Shelton Sampson hauled in a 13-yard reception from Lunch Winfield to tie the game at 7-all, but Jaiden Tucker answered with a touchdown grab of his own to give the Warhawks the lead again.

Micah Johnson took a fumble 18 yards to paydirt early in the third, and Garner tacked on two more. Don Chaney
