The Warriors weren’t down in the first quarter, however. Brown led them down the field before handing it off to 2027 running back Isaiah Garrett for a 1-yard touchdown to make it 14-7 heading into the second quarter.

From there it was all Anderson. A quarterback keeper by Burnam made it 14-14 with less than three minutes left in the first half. The Raptors defense then picked off Brown on the following possession to get the ball back to Burnam and the offense.
