9/28/2018 5:39:00 PM | Football, Bearkat Sports Network
For our From the Vault feature, we are going to have 10 days of features heading into next week's Battle of the Piney Woods game as we take a look at 10 key moments in the history of the rivalry, which the Kats currently hold a seven game win streak over the Lumberjacks.
We will stick witht the 2012 game at NRG Stadium with another key play that was part of a 51-43 victory for the Bearkats.
After a goal-line stand by the Lumberjacks midway through the third quarter, the Bearkats trotted out the field goal unit for a short chip shot to extend the lead to 12. Instead of kicking though, quarterback Brian Bell, who was the holder on kicks, took the snap and ran it in for a score.
The touchdown was part of a 21-point third quarter, extending what was a 23-21 lead to 44-21.
"Our motto this year is finish," Bell said to reporters after the game. "That has to be our main focus. When we get ahead or get a lead, we have to finish. That's our main focus going into every game, trying to get up and finish the game."
This year's game will kickoff at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 6. To purchase tickets visit www.gobearkats.com/pineywoods
