Max Huston Delivers Best Effort of Season
Seaman was led to victory by Max Huston, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Huston rushed for 168 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.9 yards per carry, and also threw for 210 yards and two touchdowns while completing 76.5% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
