The Panthers improved to 1-1 with their first win of the season, while Bowdoin dropped to 0-2. Carson Eutsay accounted for two interceptions, returning one 70 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter and taking away a late scoring opportunity with another near Middlebury's goal line.

The game was scoreless until Yaseen Mousa kicked a 30-yard field goal with nine seconds left in the first half. Middlebury moved 67 yards in 12 plays over the final 1:52 to set up the kick.
