4th and 1 Lehigh. I think they're going for this at their own 35.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Villanova's drive was three runs, two of them big plays. Championship teams simply don't do that. The defense needs to fix this, and fast.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

This doesn't feel like a war, or a heavyweight bout. This feels like any number of Lehigh/Villanova games I've witnessed over the decades.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Touchdown, Villanova, and a 15 yard facemask to add extra salt.

It's Lehigh 0, Villanova 14, 8:04 to play, 1st half.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Someone is missing a gap, and Villanova has found it.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Villanova has found something. Mace this time runs the same play and they are up to the Lehigh 21 after a 42 yard run.

DJ Brown with a touchdown-saving tackle after that 31 yard run by Isaiah Ragland.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Villanova gets the ball back with 10:07 left in the half with the score Lehigh 0, Villanova 7.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

They probably could have called pass interference on Lehigh's last two throws downfield, but they are incompletions. Lehigh will punt again.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Big 3rd and 6 at the Villanova 42 for Lehigh's offense.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Lehigh past midfield. Despite the fans' moaning, that was egregious pass interference. That's called at every level, even Pop Warner.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Pass interference will give Lehigh another first down.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Run play blown up by Villanova there. 3rd and 12 at Lehigh's 38.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Despite Villanova stacking the box, Lehigh needed 1, Yoder got 6. Move those chains.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Lehigh gets the ball at their 24. I feel a slight shift in momentum Lehigh's way here. Might be nothing. Let's see.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

WOW!!! Iggy Williams gets the credit on that pass defensed!!! Breaks up a certain first down and Nova will punt again!

[Richmond Spiders Football @URSpidersFB]

OUR BALL!

Spiders recover the muffed punt and Kyle Bitsko kicks it through the uprights a play later to put Richmond up 13-6 at half!

End of the 1st quarter, Lehigh 0, Villanova 7. The WIldcats start the game with an impressive time-consuming drive, and since then it's been an exchange of punts. Lehigh offense hasn't got out of their own end yet.

[Lehigh Football Nation @LFN]

Braden Reed with a nice return on the punt, making a few Lehigh defenders miss. Villanova will start their next drive at the 35 yard line.
