Georgia State beat FCS team Rhode Island 42-35 Thursday evening in Atlanta. The game was the first of the season for both sides, and snapped a three-year streak of opening game losses for the Panthers.
Rhode Island was never out of the game, and was leading as late as the third quarter. But a 63-yard rushing score from Marcus Carroll followed immediately by a Gavin Pringle pick-six swung momentum back to the Panthers, which they carried the remainder of the game.
Hill, who started 12 games for Maryland over two years but tore an ACL in consecutive seasons, has only had three multi-interception games in his career.
