The Tiger defense was put to the test first as the Rebels elected to receive the opening kickoff. Featuring junior running back Trelyn Owensby, who has run for over 200 yards twice this season, Fannin County’s run-based attack quickly knocked out back-to-back first downs before the Tiger defensive line, led by senior Zac Baloga, was able to force the Rebels into a punting situation.
