The Cars Plus Rams ran up the score 65-0 in their Miller Football League matchup Sunday at UOG field against the Chili’s Falcons.

The Rams took over the first half ending with the score at 44-0, adding another 21 points before the final whistle was blown.

Quarterback Will Williams brought his Rams to first and goal at the 7-yard line after tacking in a 50-yard run. After two incomplete passes into the end zone, Rodney Benning ran in for a 7-yard touchdown, followed by Jason Baza’s PAT making the score 51-0.

Williams then threw 29 yards to wide receiver Jacob Torres, making the reception with two defenders on the play and in the end zone. Baza easily sent the ball through the uprights, and the four minute warning was called.
