Grainger, Carroll Dominant In Georgia State Win Over UConn

The Georgia State Panthers beat the UConn Huskies 35-14 Saturday night, dominating on the ground for a second straight game.

GSU quarterback Darren Grainger rushed for 142 yards, just one short of his career-high, and running back Marcus Carroll added 107 after rushing for a career-high last week.

The Panthers’ 250 team ground yards come after 231 last week against Rhode Island. This is the first time GSU has had back-to-back 200-plus rushing games since October 2022.

Grainger also passed for 144 yards, making this the fourth game of his career with 100 ground and air yards.
