The result was nothing new for the Ricebirds, who have now won four contests by 23 points or more so far this season.
El Campo didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Jonah Poenitzsch and Jackson Bystrek. Poenitzsch has been hot recently, having also posted at least one defended passe the last four times he's played. He got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.
When it comes to explaining why Giddings lost, don't look at Gunnar Fromme. Despite the final result, he picked up 124 receiving yards and one score. Fromme really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 70 yards.
