Christion was 13-of-14 passing with 332 of the Jackrabbits' 557 yards passing as he became the Missouri Valley Football Conference's career leader with 81 TD throws, passing Matt Brown of Illinois State, who had 78 (2009-12).

Cade Johnson had five catches for 162 yards and two scores, including a 71-yarder, and Adam Anderson 128 yards on four catches with a touchdown.
