Campbell amassed 438 yards rushing, led by Kaneala Stanton (12 carries, 128 yards) and Isaiah Smith (12-127).
Kaiser, meanwhile, gained 241 yards through the air using two quarterbacks. Shannon Wise played quarterback in the first half and completed 7-of-11 passes for 146 yards and one touchdown. Steven Pratt took over in the second half and went 7 of 20 for 95 yards and one touchdown.
The Sabers marched 86 yards on 11 plays after the opening kickoff, only to fumble the ball away at Kaiser's 4-yard line.
Campbell went up 7-0 after Shaye Asoau's 1-yard quarterback sneak, but the Cougars answered with Wise's 67-yard touchdown pass to Matt Ching on the first play from scrimmage following the kickoff.
Kaiser took a 14-7 lead on Wise's 12-yard touchdown run on a naked bootleg, sprung free by Rusty Laboy's block on the seam.
Lee's 2-yard TD run helped Campbell tie it 14-14 just before halftime.
Quinton Richards' 4-yard touchdown run helped give the Sabers a 21-14 lead with 3:29 remaining in the third quarter.
The Cougars came back to tie it at 21-21 on Pratt's 11-yard touchdown pass to Steele Legros with 1:50 left in the quarter.
