The next kickoff went to Bobcats and was caught but fumbled and recovered by the Rams who ran it back for a touchdown. They went for a two point conversion and were stopped by the Bobcats. Bobcats recover next kickoff drive it some and then a pass interference call on third down gave the Bobcats a first down and on fourth down short distance Jarod Hamilton gained 13.5 yards and a pass to Davian Durden who breaks serval tackles making a touchdown for the Bobcats. Rams were able to score again and cats took their next possession with an interception then a series of five fumbles and 2 in interceptions most of which were a scoop and score for the Rams. The Bobcat defense played solid during the second quarter and Rams only scored 3 times on offense.
