Missouri State dominated UT Martin 42-10 behind quarterback Jacob Clark's spectacular performance, accounting for five touchdowns in the first half alone. The Bears stormed to a 35-0 halftime lead with Clark throwing three touchdown passes and rushing for two scores before Shomari Lawrence added a 50-yard touchdown run early in the third quarter. The Skyhawks finally got on the board in the fourth quarter with a field goal and Thomas Ansley's late 1-yard touchdown run, but by then the Bears had long secured their emphatic victory.
