Fordham's Alex Kemper recorded 55-yard, pick-6 in the third for a 21-17 Rams lead.

Stony Brook's no-huddle, shotgun offense produced 328 yards through the air and 104 on the ground and generated 21 first downs. Freshman quarterback Malachi Marshall was 18 of 36 passing for 268 yards while Knoop was 5 of 7 for 60 yards and a score.
