Trey Owens passed for 309 yards and accounted for four touchdowns as Arkansas State held off a late Georgia State rally for a 38-32 victory Saturday night in a Sun Belt Conference homecoming matchup.
The Red Wolves built a 38-21 lead early in the fourth quarter before the Panthers scored 11 unanswered points to make it a one-possession game.
Georgia State had one final opportunity to complete the comeback, but Arkansas State’s defense came up with an interception in the closing seconds to secure the victory.
Owens completed 21 of 32 passes for two touchdowns without an interception and added 36 rushing yards and two scores. Jalen Bonelli caught seven passes for 150 yards and a touchdown, while Nana Burris finished with six receptions for 114 yards and a score.
