ASU loses TD, game at the end

LAFAYETTE, La. -- Dijon Paschal thought maybe, just maybe, his Arkansas State football team was about to escape with a most improbable victory Saturday afternoon.

"I was jumping for joy," the junior wide receiver said of a wild final play at Cajun Field that at first appeared to give the Red Wolves a come-from-behind victory.

Instead, ASU left with a 24-19 loss to Louisiana-Lafayette, when a replay official ruled that quarterback Justice Hansen's knee touched down before he lateraled the ball to offensive tackle Joseph Bacchus, who scooped it up and ran 7 yards into the end zone.
