Daniels rolled to his left and launched an absolute missile down the sideline. Thomas came down with the pass and scurried into the end zone untouched.
The score was Thomas’ 10th of the season, which put him in the lead among all receivers in the FBS.
At the end of the 1st, the Tigers were up 14-0 on the Black Knights.
However, Thomas wouldn’t be stuck at 10 receiving TDs for long. To open up the 2nd, Thomas caught an 8-yard TD pass for his 2nd of the night and 11th of the season.
The Tigers are in command of this matchup, with a 21-0 lead just minutes into the 2nd quarter. Daniels has been nearly perfect, completing 7/10 passes for 198 yards and 2 TDs thus far.
With a win, the Tigers would improve to 6-2 on the season. The Tigers have a tough stretch after this game, with games against Alabama, Florida, Georgia State, and Texas A&M to end the season.
