Harding Outlasts UT Permian Basin 34-28 to Reach D-II Semifinals

The Bisons head to Kutztown after eclipsing their own single-season rushing record.

Overview

  • Cole Keylon rushed for 148 yards and a touchdown and helped bleed the final minutes as Harding finished with 389 rushing yards.
  • Braden Jay added 95 yards and two scores while Andrew Miller was held to 91, but the team still surpassed its single-season rushing mark during the game.
  • UTPB’s Kanon Gibson threw for 312 yards and ran for two short touchdowns, but he was intercepted twice as Harding protected a second-half lead.
  • A missed 24-yard field goal with 8:44 remaining squandered the Falcons’ last scoring chance before the Bisons closed it out with a 16-play drive.
  • The win extends Harding’s home streak to 24 and sends the Bisons (14-0) to a national semifinal at Kutztown, Pennsylvania.
