It was set up by a 59-yard run by Scott to Livingstone four yard line. Antonio Knight, who came in to replace James at quarterback, scored on a 10-yard run with with 10:47 remaining in the game. The Blue Bears put together two more threats before game's end, but couldn't get into the end zone after being stopped on fourth-down attempts. Abrams said big plays by Tuskegee hurt his team's chances. "When you give up two touchdown passes, including a 90-yarder that's got to be the differ ence," Abrams said. "They made big plays and kept us from making big plays. "Today, it looked like they were just bigger and stronger than we were. We'd make some good plays and then they'd get a big play. All I can say is that they played better." James was named the MVP for Tuskegee after finishing the day with 204 yards passing on six-of-14 passing. Hopper was named Livingstone's MVP. He rushed for 34 yards and added 185 yards through the air.
