CARBONDALE, Ill. (AP) — Beau Brungard threw for 219 yards and a touchdown and ran for another, and Youngstown State beat Southern Illinois 28-16 Saturday in a matchup of two Top 25 Stats Perform poll participants in the Championship Subdivision.
Brungard, who managed to overcome a pair of interceptions, ran for 69 yards on 16 carries and completed 20 of 29 passes.
The Penguins (4-2, 2-1 MVFC), ranked No. 8 in the poll, faced a 10-7 halftime deficit and took control late in the third quarter and into the fourth. Brungard ran it in from the 1 to end an 11-play, 61-yard drive that lasted 6:06 and made it 14-10 with 4:04 left in the third.
Southern Illinois, ranked 21st, fumbled the ball away on its third play of the following drive. On the next play from scrimmage, Brungard threw a 20-yard touchdown to Austin Bray for a 21-10 lead.
With 3:37 remaining, Jaden Gilbert ran it in from the 6 to conclude a 12-play, 80-yard drive that lasted almost eight-and-a-half minutes.
DJ Williams threw for 288 yards and was intercepted once, and Kyle Thomas caught eight passes for 155 yards for the Salukis (3-3, 1-1).
