The Hurricanes forced a three and out on the Cavaliers next drive which led to a  blocked punt attempt for a touchdown. Abraham Dimmitt was the Hurricane credited with the punt block and recovery. Liberty led 21-7 after the extra point by Reiman. With 4:41 left in the half, Nasir Legree ran for a 33-yard touchdown to give the Hurricanes a 28-7 lead.
