London Smith was a one-man wrecking crew for University as he picked up 133 receiving yards and two touchdowns. University also got a significant boost from JD Bell, who ran away from the competition to the tune of 91 yards.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, University was moving up and down the field and finished the game with 520 total yards. That's the most total yards they've posted since back in August of 2023.
University wouldn't let Keller Central keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. University can thank Jeremiah Green and Andre Young for forcing both of them. Green didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made three total tackles in addition to snagging an interception.
Everything came up roses for Granbury against University in their previous matchup back in September of 2021 as the squad secured a 56-27 win.
