Dylan Lynch's 40-yard field goal put the Dolphins up 22-17, but Gary Scott scored on a 1-yard run and Joey Orlando caught a 13-yard TD pass from Piatkowski as Drake regained the lead.
Piatkowski was 25-of-34 passing for 277 yards.
Drake's halftime lead came from a 2-yard touchdown from Scott, a 1-yard TD pass from Piatkowski to Kevin Marshall and a 22-yard field goal by Cam Bohnert.
