Nashville safety: Robert McCoy is sacked in the end zone. Albany 71, Nashville 55 with 32 seconds left. Kats are technically still in this one. Don't quite understand Albany's refusal to even try and run the ball there.

Nashville's Gunner Raborn with his third deuce of the night. Albany 71, Nashville 53 with 49 seconds left

Last week's Albany-Salina game was the highest-scoring game of the AF1 season to date at 122 points. We've matched that tonight.

Nashville TD: Robert Jones Jr. hauls in the 14-yard pass from Tyler Kulka. 5th TD pass of the night for Kulka, who goes over 300 yards passing. Albany 71, Nashville 51 after the 2-point conversion. 49 seconds left.

One-minute warning with the Firebirds up 71-43. Albany on its way to 8-0 with just two regular season games remaining. Firebirds have three byes in the remaining five weeks of the AF1 season.

Mike Lee down again for the Firebirds, had a hard collision on another kickoff return.

Firebirds TD: Oh man, an absolutely incredible catch by Darien Townsend for the 14-yard score. Two ricochets before Townsend came away with it. Henry Nell misses the dropkick attempt. Albany 71, Nashville 43 with 2:43 to go

Robert McCoy Jr. with the 4-yard TD run, but it's called back for a holding penalty.

Nashville loses the challenge. Albany ball at the Nashville 8 with 4:18 to go, and Robert McCoy Jr. takes over at QB for Albany in mop-up duty.

And we're gonna get a challenge on that, because this game has not gone long enough yet.

Onsides kick unsuccessful. Nashville touched it before it went 10 yards.

Guessing we'll get an onsides kick attempt from Nashville's Gunner Raborn here. Firebirds certainly lined up like they're expecting one, with only Marquel Wade back deep.

After the penalty, Tyler Kulka runs in the conversion ... and got a little banged up on the play, though he runs off. Albany 65, Nashville 43 with 4:23 to play

Nashville goes for two and doesn't get it, but there's a defensive holding flag on the Firebirds. Albany defense has committed a lot of penalties tonight, that's the fourth on this drive.

Nashville TD: Calvin Fance with the 1-yard run. Albany 65, Nashville 41 with the PAT pending as Firebirds DL Jamall Hickbottom is down after the play. They're looking at his right leg. Walks off under his own power, if a bit gingerly.

Mike Lee back out there for the Firebirds on this defensive series.

Firebirds TD: Desmond Maxwell 4-yard TD run on the inside handoff. Albany flipped the script on this game at the end of the second quarter and has dominated the second half. Albany 65, Nashville 35, 10:03 left in 4Q
