App State Rallies Late to Beat Georgia State

BOONE, N.C. — Jacob Huesman finished off a fourth-quarter touchdown drive in relief of injured starting quarterback Zac Thomas to give App State its first lead, and the Mountaineers remained unbeaten in Sun Belt Conference play with a 17-13 victory against Georgia State on Saturday.

App State (6-1, 4-0) lost Thomas to an injury midway through the fourth quarter, and Huesman was on the field for the final six plays of a march that covered 11 plays and 77 yards.

He completed a 12-yard pass to Camerun Peoples on his first play and added a 14-yard completion to Thomas Hennigan on a third-and-8 throw to the Georgia State 22.
