While Carlisle carried the load early, Brown picked up the slack late, re- cording four receptions for 72 yards in the final two quarters. He had the offense's highlight of the night, out- jumping Boston College cornerback John Johnson for a 12-yard touchdown to make it a 16-3 game in the third quarter. "Chris has always said to put the ball up there," Kizer said of the touch- down pass. "Chris has all the athletic ability in the world to go up on anyone … We put the ball up top, and he went up and made a great play for us. "They were playing really good de- fense on that play, but Chris needed a win and as an offense we needed a win." Brown finished the game with six receptions for a career-high 104 yards and a touchdown, while Carlisle had a team-leading seven receptions for a career-best 97 yards and a score. ✦ Rushing No. Gain Lost Net Avg.
