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.
UConn’s 14 points make it now four straight games with only two touchdowns, a streak that began against Army last season.
