The Rattler offense began to push in the second quarter. Quarterback Dalton Sneed led the charge with a rushing touchdown of his own. The Rattlers would take the lead after a Ron Brown Jr. rushing touchdown. Brown Jr. would then score 2 more rushing touchdowns to take the Rattlers to a 32-21 lead at the half.
Sneed and Brown Jr. kept the Rattlers on top for the last half, with four more touchdowns between both players to keep a well-cushioned lead the rest of the game. While the offense did its fair share of the work for the win, the defense also kept the Gunslingers at bay.
