- The CC defense has held its opponents to single digit first down totals for each of the first two games of the season for the first time since 2011.

- Crittenden did not have a penalty in last week’s game.  That is only the 2nd time in the last 96 games that CC did not have a penalty for an entire game.  The other occurrence was week 10 of the 2013 season against Caldwell County.

- The 335 passing yards through the first two games of the season for Nick Castiller are the most passing yards ever for a Rocket QB in the first two games of a season.  The second most is 299 yards by Taylon Polk (2006).
