## Game summary

The scoreboard was not designed to display triple digits, so on the scoreboard it said "05" next to Rockford and "00" next to the visitor. Douglas P. Scott, who was the mayor of Rockford, Illinois at the time, arrived at the game during the fourth quarter, and saw Mike Hoskins disengaged from the game, which startled him. He said to coach Hoskins "God, it's 5–0? What are you doing?" Hoskins replied "Doug, it's not 5–0. It's 105–0". Scott was shocked and said "Are you serious?". The statistics Rockford compiled in the game are mind-boggling. They compiled 548 total yards, while holding Trinity Bible to just 14. They also recorded 18 first downs, while holding the Lions to just 5. They also dominated the time of possession, holding the ball for 37 minutes and 48 seconds. After the conclusion of the game coach Hoskins said "You hate to see a score get like that, but when you play all of your people and don't even throw the football, there's not much else you can do".
