The Eagles led 14-13 late in the first half when Omar Clark picked off a pass, and set the Eagles up for a late first-half score. With a 21-13 lead, the Eagles threw an interception to open the second half. The Rams scored and made the two-point conversion to tie it at 21-all. The Eagles took the lead on the next play. Up 28-21, G.W. picked up a Ram turnover and had a first and goal, but a penalty and a fumble prevented them from scoring. On the Rams' subsequent possession, G.W. made a third-down stop, but a penalty kept the drive alive and the Rams scored a touchdown to tie it. G.W. scored again, but the extra point was blocked. The Rams scored with 5:37 left and made their extra point to take the lead. The Eagles them fumbled, and the Rams kept it the last 5:21 of the game to seal the win.
