In the second quarter they added three more points with Parker Colburn adding a field goal. Tuscloosa County did score on a one yard touchdown run which made the score 24-7 midway through the second quarter.
Tyson found Johnson on a screen pass that he took to the endzone 65 yards to increase their lead 31-7 as they entered halftime.
After the half, the Huskies picked up right where they left off with an explosive 59 yard touchdown by Armoni Goodwin to increase the lead 38-7. The Tigers answered with a one yard touchdown of their own to make the game 38-14.
The Huskies proved to be too much as they wrapped up the scoring in the third after a 14 yard pass and catch from Tyson to Worsham.
Paul Tyson finished with 13-of-18 for 257 yards and four touchdowns and one rushing touchdown as well. Johnson caught five passes for 181 yards and two touchdowns, and Worsham finished with six receptions for 46 yards and two touchdowns.
