JONESBORO, Ark. (10/5/16) – Omar Bayless hauled in outstanding catch before falling out of bounds in the end zone to help Arkansas State rally past Georgia Southern, 27-26, Wednesday night at Centennial Bank Stadium.

The Red Wolves (1-4, 1-0 Sun Belt) entered the fourth quarter facing a 23-17 deficit, but the A-State defense held Georgia Southern (3-2, 2-1 Sun Belt) to eight total yards in the fourth quarter to support the rally and give the offense a chance. On the night, A-State held the Eagles to 3-of-15 (20 percent) on third down and forced seven three and outs defensively.
