touchdown passes. Garman finished 17-of-31 with a pair of
interceptions and also ran for a score while Webb was 35-of-54 for
374 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions before leaving

21-14 halftime advantage. Both teams scored a pair of touchdowns in
the third quarter with Garman throwing a 47-yard TD pass to Blake

8-yard TD run with 7:39 to go made it 45-28. Patrick Mahomes, who
took over for Webb, brought the visitors within 45-35 with a short
