LAST TIMEOUT:
SOUTH CAROLINA STATE
The Bulldogs (5-4, 4-2 MEAC) suffered a heart-breaking loss last week in Orangeburg, S.C., all but dropping out of MEAC title contention after a 9-6 loss to conference-leader North Carolina A&T. The visiting Aggies, trailing 6-2, scored the go-ahead touchdown with 1:39 left. SCSU then drove deep inside N.C. A&T territory in the closing minute, but kicker Tyler Scandrett missed the potential game-tying 33-yard field goal on the final play of the game as the Aggies held on. A game pitting the league's top two defenses was low-scoring as expected. The Aggies managed just 145 total yards of offense, while the Bulldogs recorded just 242.
 
NORFOLK STATE
The Spartans (3-6, 3-3 MEAC) snapped its three-game losing streak in dramatic fashion last Saturday, getting two clutch field goals from junior kicker Cameron Malouf to come away with a 20-17 Homecoming win over Savannah State in overtime at Dick Price Stadium. NSU rallied from a 17-7 fourth-quarter deficit to force the extra period. Shakeem Copeland scored on a 2-yard run early in the fourth quarter, and then Marouf drilled a 41-yard field goal with 2:28 to tie the game. After SSU missed a field goal on the first possession of overtime, Marouf hit a 38-yarder to win the game for the Spartans.
 
 NEXT UP: The Bulldogs close out the season on the road against Savannah State in Savannah, GA. Kickoff is 1 PM.
