He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making eight total tackles (1.0 for loss).

Jake Conroy Delivers Electric Effort Vs Bremen
The second Knox player making an appearance here is Jake Conroy, and for good reason. He rushed for 105 yards and three touchdowns, and also picked up 31 receiving yards. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards dating back to last season.
On the year, Conroy has averaged 20.2 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had nine rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 14.
