Kennesaw State stormed to a commanding 21-0 first-quarter lead and held on for a 28-21 victory over Arkansas State at Walens Family Field. Quarterback Amari Odom dazzled with a 54-yard touchdown pass to Gabriel Benyard and added a 14-yard rushing score as the Owls built their early advantage. The Red Wolves rallied behind Jaylen Raynor's three total touchdowns, but Coleman Bennett's 10-yard touchdown run in the third quarter gave the Owls enough cushion to secure the win.
