  Box Score Deshler offense primarily features the running game, and the Tigers did rush for 314 yards against the Rebels. But Deshler also went to the air more often, and Tiger quarterbacks Sam Howard and Rush Shirley combined to throw four touchdown passes, with Howard’s three scoring tosses being his only three completions of the game.

  Box Score | Recap

•   Highlights:
• After two quarters, Deshler appeared poised to hand Colbert County its first loss of the season. Ricks ran for touchdown runs of 38 and 40 yards, and the Tigers thwarted two Colbert County red-zone opportunities by holding the Indians to a pair of field goals. Ricks finished with 162 yards on nine carries to lead Deshler, which also got 69 yards from Terrance Byrd.
•  
• Clinging to an 18-14 lead with two minutes remaining in the third quarter, Colbert County put together a methodical 17-play scoring drive that gave the Indians a two-score lead and all but broke Deshler (4-3, 2-3). Carpenter carried the ball 11 times on the drive, and his second fourth-down conversion — from fourth-and-1 at the 4 — set up quarterback Tyler Jeffrey’s 2-yard keeper for a score on the next play.
• 
  Another three-and-out for Deshler followed to set up the decisive 17-play scoring drive during which Deshler saw two of its defensive starters exit with injuries.
  “We never could catch our base and get our defense to come back together. We started missing those cogs in there. When you miss those, it just doesn’t click,” Deshler coach John Mothershed said. “But that doesn’t take away anything from Colbert County did.”
