The VMI Keydets took full advantage of five turnovers and 13 penalties by the Gardner-Webb Runnin' Bulldogs, and led wire to wire in a 27-9 Keydet win in Big South football action Saturday afternoon in Lexington, Va. The victory came in VMI's final Big South football game, prior to next year's jump to the Southern Conference.

A botched snap went into the endzone, and Weston Reber fell on the loose ball for a VMI touchdown and a 7-0 Keydet lead.
