After falling victim to a handful of heartbreaking losses this season, the Georgia State Panthers got to play the villain after they beat Troy 37-10 in each team’s final regular season game Saturday afternoon. The Trojans needed a win to become bowl eligible for the first time since 2018, but instead the Panthers won their sixth conference game of the year, a program best.
Despite Troy’s defense coming into this game among the best in the Group of 5, it was Georgia State’s defense that shined. Perhaps most impressively, Troy recorded just 57 net rushing yards on 38 attempts.
