The Bulldogs pushed that to a 9-0 lead on the ensuing possession as Morris scored on a three-yard run with 7:48 remaining in the first.
Morris scored his second touchdown early in the second quarter on a one-yard dive at the 13:39 mark to cap an 11-play, 78-yard drive. That lead grew to 19-0 on a 26-yard field goal by Tyler Scandrett with 6:47 remaining in the half.
