Opening Bell: Heat and a Slow Start
It is 95 degrees and clear at Center Parc Stadium, and we are tied at zero. We get the ball first, and we move it. Six plays, and then we stall. Page punts, and the defense holds. Georgia State punts right back. We get another chance. Four plays, and we stall again. Page punts, and the return sets them up at our 30. One play. That is all it takes. Brown throws deep right, Murray Jr. catches it at the six, and it is a touchdown. Seven-zero, them. We answer with eight plays, but we punt again. Then they march. Eleven plays, and McCrary Jr. runs it in from eight yards out. Fourteen-zero, them, as the quarter ends.
The Middle: We Answer, Then They Run
We start the second quarter with the ball. Nine plays, and we punt again. They take over and grind out twelve plays. Wiggins punches it in from two yards out. Twenty-one-zero. Then, finally, a spark. White drops back, and he finds Rucker short middle. Rucker catches it at their 46, and he is gone. Sixty-one yards. Touchdown. We are on the board, 21 to 7. But they answer right back. Murray Jr. runs it in from 14 yards out. Twenty-eight-seven. We punt again. Then, with 19 seconds left in the half, Brown finds Miller for eight yards. Touchdown. Thirty-five-seven. We get the ball back with three seconds. White gets sacked, and the half ends. But the quarter does not. They get the ball to start the second half, and Pereira runs it in from 17 yards out. Forty-two-seven.
The Break: It Gets Away
We get the ball to start the third, and we try to answer. Six plays, and then the punt is blocked. They recover at our eight. Six plays later, they settle for a field goal from 26 yards. Forty-five-seven. We punt again. Then Hart breaks one. Forty-one yards up the middle. Touchdown. Fifty-two-seven. We punt again. They keep coming. Pereira hits Wiggins for 11, and then Butler runs it in from 20 yards out. Fifty-nine-seven. But we do not quit. We put together a 15-play drive. We chew the clock. And Holland hits a 39-yard field goal. Ten-fifty-nine.
The Finish: Playing It Out
They punt. We punt. They get the ball back with 3:35 left, and they kneel it out. The final is 59 to 10. A tough one, Aggie Nation. We fought, we got on the board, but tonight belonged to Georgia State. We go again next week.
