Offense was the story of the game for both teams. The Warhawks racked up 590 total yards, but Arkansas State posted 781 as they defeated the Warhawks 67-50 in a shootout. Junior receiver Marcus Green was the player of the game as he made plays all over the field on both kick return and on offense. Green posted a career best 193 receiving yards on his way to 418 all-purpose yards.
“I had no idea about the records,” Green said.” I mean, I knew about the kick return record for touchdowns but the all-purpose yard record and all that, I had no idea.
