Franklin gave Murphy a good dose of run, run, and run some more. After going down 7-0, Murphy drove to Franklins 12. A costly fumble was picked up and returned for a Franklin TD, putting the panthers up 14-0. After that, it was an uphill battle for the Dogs. Murphy adjusted a bit better on defense in the 2nd half after allowing 28 first half points. Murphy had 2 chances to bring it down to a 7 point game late in the 3rd qt but couldnt get it done. Franklin put it away with a late 4th qt TD. Franklin has a very good team no doubt and deserved to win. Murphys 2 redzone turnovers and the inabilty to stop Franklins run game in the 1st half did the Dogs in.
