Sims had five catches for 89 yards with 40 yards being his longest, and Smith targeted Brown five times for 108 yards. Despite throwing two interceptions, Smith had a good night in the air.

Defensively, the Broncos did a great job of containing Boys Ranch and holding them scoreless until the end of the game. Dalton Coles led the way with 12 tackles, and Jared Musick had eight. Frausto played well on defense with seven grabs, and Sims had six. Haynes,
Shane Hagood, Kyler Bell, Tyler Cavanaugh, Heston Seay Waite Dushay, and Ranger Drenth posted at least one tackle on the night. Smith and Brown each had one interception, and Smith and Grant Haynes had a recovered fumble.
