LAFAYETTE, La. — App State Football fought back from a series of hard-to-believe developments in the fourth quarter to give itself a chance for a comeback road victory, but Louisiana pulled out a 34-24 win in Sun Belt Conference action Saturday night.
Kanye Roberts rushed for a career-high 148 yards on 26 attempts and caught a 15-yard touchdown pass, while Kaedin Robinson had seven catches for 96 yards to lead the offense.
Jordan Favors made a critical interception deep in App State territory with the Mountaineers trailing by three points in the final six minutes, but their third turnover of the fourth quarter and fourth turnover of the game set up an outcome-sealing touchdown on quarterback Ben Wooldridge's 1-yard sneak with 1:03 left.
