The two teams met up last year in conference competition with Center coming out on top by a 42-7 score. This year Tatum got the upper hand, during scrimmage play, with their biggest damage being a 22-yard touchdown reception by Shay Rodgers, and a 32-yard run up the middle, for a score, by Austin McGee.
