Louisiana Prevails in Thursday Night Thriller with Georgia State

LAFAYETTE – A late 13-yard touchdown run by freshman Montrell Johnson and a clutch defensive stand late in the game preserved a 21-17 victory over Georgia State and clinched the team's fourth-straight Sun Belt Conference West Division title on Thursday night.

Louisiana will now make its fourth consecutive appearance in the Sun Belt's title game, the only team in the league to do so, while the victory improved the Ragin' Cajuns to 14-3 in one-possession games under head coach Billy Napier.

A monster nine-catch, 118-yard performance from wide receiver Peter LeBlanc headlined the Ragin' Cajuns offensive production on the night.
