POCATELLO, Idaho (AP) — Anthony Grigsby Jr. scored three touchdowns, including a crucial 5-yard pass to Misa Paiau with just 40 seconds left on the clock, as Cal Poly pulled off a stunning 25-24 victory over Idaho State on Saturday.

The Mustangs (4-3, 3-1 Big Sky) found themselves trailing 24-18 at halftime before Grigsby orchestrated a seven-play, 66-yard drive that netted the winning points with under a minute remaining. Idaho State (4-2, 1-2) had a narrow 18-10 lead in the third quarter after a safety and a 50-yard field goal from Mason Lindberg.

Grigsby added a four-yard touchdown run and sealed the deal with a 2-point conversion to tie the score at 18. The Idaho State kicker Mason Lindberg made two crucial 43 and 30-yard field goals in the final quarter to extend Idaho State's lead. Grigsby also rushed for 55 yards and two touchdowns, while throwing for 198 yards and a score.

Jordan Cooke contributed 238 passing yards and a touchdown for Idaho State, but he was intercepted twice. Despite their efforts, the Cougars couldn't overcome Cal Poly's late rally. Cal Poly will face Northern Colorado next Saturday.
