SALEM, Va. -- Blake Jackson knew that, more than usual, Mary Hardin-Baylors fortunes were going to be in his control with the NCAA Division III title at stake.The dual-threat quarterback embraced it, running for 119 yards and a touchdown and leading the Crusaders to a 10-7 victory over Wisconsin-Oshkosh in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl on Friday night for their first football national championship.I like the pressure. I like the challenge, the senior said. Thank you to the coaches for believing in me.Jackson carried 28 times for the Crusaders (15-0), and completed 16 of 27 passes for 171 yards with an interception. The Crusaders virtually ignored running back Markeith Miller, who arrived with nearly 1,500 yards rushing, but gained just 11 on nine carries.We had trouble running the ball, coach Pete Fredenburg, who started the Crusaders program 19 years ago, said. Blake took up the slack. We felt like he was going to have to be the catalyst for our offense.Jacksons touchdown came on a 1-yard run with 3:16 left in the second quarter, and was the final score of the game.There was a ton of athletes out there tonight on both sides of the ball, Titans coach Pat Cerroni said. Great athletes, but No. 7 (Jackson) was exceptional.Dylan Hecker ran 2 yards to give the Titans (13-2) a 7-0 lead after just 6:22, but Oshkosh could never find that rhythm again. The Titans drove to the Crusaders 35 in the final minute, but Matt Cody intercepted Brett Kaspers fourth-and-10 pass from the 35 to clinch the victory.Dont drop it, Cody said he thought as the clinching play came spiraling toward him.Kasper finished 20 for 33 for 185 yards with two interceptions. The Titans were held to 30 rushing yards on 29 attempts.The Titans were playing in the championship game for the first time. Mary Hardin-Baylor lost in its only previous appearance in 2004.THE TAKEAWAYMary Hardin-Baylor: Jackson and the offense get the credit for scoring points, but the Crusaders defense held the Titans scoreless after the offense turned it over three times -- at midfield, at the Crusaders 27 and at the Titans 6 while looking for a cushion touchdown. The defense also stopped Oshkosh three times on fourth down -- twice inside the Crusaders 30 and then on the games penultimate play.Wis.-Oshkosh: The Titans run a modified 3-4 defense, with virtually no pass rush, and it backfired on them in the first quarter when the Crusaders used a 20-play, 66-yard drive to get their first points on a 22-yard field goal by John Mowery. On the drive, Jackson ran around behind the line unchallenged, at times finding receivers downfield and other times running through gaps for yardage. The Crusaders converted their first five third downs on the drive before settling for the field goal.BIG KICKJohn Mowerys 22-yard field goal was the difference, and he seemed like a liability to the Crusaders coming in.Hes made just 8 of 15 field goal tries on the season, with a long of 42, but was true when a 20-play drive stalled at the Titans 5.Mowery later missed a 19-yard try, while Oshkosh, whose kicker Eli Wettstein was 16 for 22 on the season with a long of 50, was left on the sidelines for the Titans final play. A field goal try would have been a career-best 52-yarder.MISCELLANYJaedon Johnsons interception for Mary Hardin-Baylor was their 33rd of the season. Codys was their 34th. ... Heckers touchdown run was his 17th of the season, but he finished with just 29 yards on 13 carries. ... Millers first touch for the Crusaders came on their 22nd play from scrimmage, and he was stopped without a gain. ... In a game that tied for the second-lowest scoring in Stagg Bowl history, the Crusaders finished 11 for 18 on third down and the Titans were 8 for 17. Felton Davis Jersey .
