Texas State drops Texas Southern, 36-20

Texas State’s offense dropped 547 yards of total offense and kicker James Sherman booted five field goals in rout to a 36-20 win over Texas Southern. The game featured a weather delay and a mounting air assault by Texas Southern.

The Bobcats led 16-0 at halftime and seven minutes into the third quarter led 26-0 until a fervid Texas Southern air attack cut the lead to as little as 12 points in the fourth quarter.

Willie Jones III threw for 235 and led the team with 107 yards on the ground as the Bobcats controlled the clock with their 304 yards rushing, their most as a team since 2015 when they dropped 319 on South Alabama.
