KENNESAW, Ga. (AP) — Amari Odom found Chase Belcher for a go-ahead 14-yard touchdown with 27 seconds remaining and Kennesaw State beat Missouri State 41-34 on Saturday.
Odom danced around in the pocket before drifting back for a lob to the front of the end zone for a wide-open Belcher to set the school record for touchdown passes in a game with five. Odom was 24 of 34 for 387 yards.
Odom gave Kennesaw State a 34-27 lead on a 25-yard connection with Clayton Coppock with 5:51 left in the fourth, but Missouri State answered two plays later when Shomari Lawrence raced for a 70-yard touchdown to tie it at 34-all.
After Kennesaw State went three-and-out, Missouri State drove past midfield before being stopped on fourth-and-10 at the 34. Odom started the game-winning drive with a 7-yard rush and followed with a 40-yard completion to Christian Moss to set up the Belcher play.
Kennesaw State (8-3, 6-1) rebounded from its first Conference USA loss in 350 days and its first loss overall in 70 days. The loss to Jacksonville State snapped the Owls’ seven-game win streak.
Coppock and Gabriel Benyard each had two touchdown grabs and 85-plus yards receiving for the Owls.
Lawrence finished with 173 yards on 20 carries for Missouri State (7-4, 5-2). Jacob Clark threw for 344 yards and three touchdowns, but he was intercepted two times.
Jacksonville State lost to FIU on Saturday to put three 6-1 teams atop the conference standings with one game to play.
