The Owls (1-1) remain unbeaten at home under head coach Willie Taggart, scoring 38 unanswered points on the way to a 38-6 win over Georgia Southern University (1-1) in the home opener Saturday afternoon.
“I thought since I’ve been here, this was the first time we’ve played a complete game,” Taggart said. “We’ve never played a game where we’ve been up and allowed our defense to pin their ears back.”
Taggart said it was “by far” the best game the Owls have played under his tenure.
Graduate quarterback N’Kosi Perry was poised for a second straight week, extending plays with his legs and finding open receivers.
