SAN MARCOS, Texas (AP) --- Brandon High Jr. ran for a go-ahead 25-yard
touchdown with 14 seconds left, and UTSA beat Texas State 31-26 on Saturday for
the 100th win in program history.
UTSA scored a touchdown on both of its fourth-quarter drives. A'Marion Peterson
capped a 65-yard drive with a 2-yard touchdown for a 24-23 lead with 11:54
remaining. High went through the line untouched and split three defenders on
the way for the score to cap a 13-play, 78-yard drive that took over four
minutes.
Owen McCown threw for 214 yards and a touchdown for UTSA (2-0), which leads the
series with Texas State 6-2. Will Henderson III carried it 14 times for 80
yards and High finished with 47 yards. Mekhi Anderson and AJ Wilson each had
80-plus yards receiving.
Brad Jackson was 17 of 30 for 192 yards with one touchdown and two
interceptions for Texas State (0-2). Torrance Burgess Jr. totaled 149 yards
rushing on 17 carries. Kylen Evans had 96 yards receiving and Chris Dawn Jr.
made a touchdown grab.
UTSA improved to 100-87 in the program's 16th season, with 55 of those
victories coming under seventh-year coach Jeff Traylor. Traylor coached Texas
State coach G.J. Kinne during his senior year at Gilmer High School in 2006.
