WEEK 3 STATS: 5 total tackles (3 solo), 2.0 sacks, 1 PBU
Dixon and the defense helped make Bryant’s game-winning drive possible, forcing a three-and-out that gave the Bulldogs’ offense the ball with 3:07 remaining on the clock. With Maine leading and looking to salt away a win with 5:33 left, Dixon helped spoil those plans. The linebacker recorded his second sack of the day on a 1st-and-10 play from Maine’s 21-yard line and the Black Bears went on to punt it away three plays later. Dixon finished with five tackles in the 13-10 win over the nationally-ranked Black Bears. His first sack of the game was also a drive killer, coming on a 3rd-and-1 play late in the second quarter.
