BEAUMONT, Texas (AP) — Aidan McCown threw two touchdown passes and added one of Lamar’s four rushing touchdowns Saturday night and the Cardinals beat Northwestern State 42-14 to extend the longest active losing streak in Division-I football to 17 games.
Northwestern State (0-6, 0-3 Southland Conference), a member the Football Championship Subdivision, hasn’t won a game since a 20-10 victory over Alcorn State to open the 2025 season that ended the program’s 20-game skid.
McCown threw a short pass to LaDamion McDowell who raced to the end zone for a 37-yard touchdown to give Lamar the lead for good with 4:41 left in the first quarter.
Zach Wilcke threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Brendan Webb in the first quarter for the Demons. Zay Davis took a pitch to the right, bent it back to the middle and raced untouched for a 24-yard TD that capped the scoring with 14:11 left in the game.
The Demons went 0 for 10 on third-down conversions in the first half and finished 2 of 17.
Lamar (4-1, 2-0) — No. 14 in the Stats Perform poll — has won three in a row since a 38-7 loss at Louisiana-Lafayette of the Football Bowl Subdivision on Sept. 5.
Jojo Uga ripped off a 45-yard TD run that opened the scoring less than 2 minutes into the game. Parker Jenkins added a 39-yard rushing touchdown and Cam Patterson’s 8-yard scoring run made it 42-7 about 3 1/2 minutes into the second half.
