ULM staged an impressive comeback victory, defeating Arkansas State 28-16 despite falling behind 10-0 early after Brandon Greil's pick-six. Quarterback Aidan Armenta sparked the Warhawks' rally with two second-quarter touchdown passes, including a 37-yarder to Jake Godfrey that gave Louisiana-Monroe its first lead. The Warhawks' rushing attack sealed the win in the second half with touchdowns from Braylon McReynolds and Zach Palmer-Smith, while holding the Red Wolves to just field goals after their fast start.
