(RV) App State 23, No. 15 Coastal Carolina 34
CONWAY, S.C. (AP) — Reese White scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 3-yard run with 2:24 to play, and No. 15 Coastal Carolina continued its perfect 8-0 start with its first-ever win over Appalachian State, 34-23 on Saturday.
 
The Chants (6-0 Sun Belt Conference) had lost all six previous games to the four-time defending Sun Belt champion Mountaineers. But they held Appalachian State to just two field goals in the second half after falling behind 17-9 at halftime.
 
The Mountaineers tried to rally after White's score. But D'Jordan Strong intercepted Zac Thomas' 4th-and-22 pass and returned it 38 yards for a touchdown to clinch it.
 
Arkansas State 45,Texas State 47
SAN MARCOS, Texas - Brady McBride etched his name into the Texas State record books while leading the Bobcats to a 47-45 win over Arkansas State in a Sun Belt Conference game at Bobcat Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
 
McBride started at quarterback for the first time in three weeks and completed 32-of-45 passes for 443 yards and five touchdowns to zero interceptions with a quarterback rating of 190.5. He threw five touchdown passes to tie a school record, and his 443 yards passing is the school's second-highest single-game total — Tyler Jones had 475 vs. Incarnate Word on Oct. 1, 2016. His 32 completions were a career-high figure for the Coppell, Texas native and the fourth-most by a TXST player in a single game. 

 
Georgia Southern 27, Army 28
WEST POINT, N.Y. – Army quarterback Tyhier Tyler ran 35 times for 121 yards, and Army overcame a 21-7 halftime deficit and hung on to defeat Georgia Southern 28-27 Saturday afternoon in Michie Stadium.
 
Trailing by a point, the Eagles got the ball back at their own 24-yard line with 39 seconds remaining and no timeouts. Justin Tomlin, in for injured starter Shai Werts, picked up 16 yards with his legs and then found Malik Murray for a 30-yard pass play down to the Army 30-yard line with 22 seconds left. But Tomlin took a 2-yard sack on the next play, and the final horn sounded as Georgia Southern tried to line up to spike the ball and stop the clock.

Georgia State 31, South Alabama 14
 
MOBILE, Ala. – Junior Tucker Gregg rushed for three scores and redshirt-freshman quarterback Cornelious Brown IV passed for a career-high 334 yards to back a strong defensive effort as Georgia State topped South Alabama 31-14 Saturday at Hancock Whitney Stadium.
 
Gregg rushed 18 times for 79 yards and scored all three touchdowns in the second half, in which Georgia State (4-4, 3-4 Sun Belt) outscored South Alabama 24-7.
 
Brown was 19-of-28 for 334 yards, hitting redshirt-sophomore Sam Pinckney five times for a career-high 176 yards. The 176 receiving yards by Pinckney, who made several highlight-reel grabs in traffic, are the sixth-most in a single game in school history and just 15 shy of Penny Hart's school-record of 191 set in 2017.
