Daylin Lee throws two touchdown passes and Tennessee State surprises Morgan State 25-16
Daylin Lee contributed to Tennessee State's 25-16 victory over Morgan State by completing two touchdown passes and running for another score. Wide receiver Jaden Jones added a touchdown catch on a trick play, while Morgan State's offense struggled to pick up crucial third down and fourth down conversions. The Tigers held Morgan State to only two successful third down attempts and just one of three fourth down conversions.
Tennessee State's defense held the No. 24 team to just 301 total yards. The Tigers took an early lead and extended it at halftime, before Morgan State's Joseph Towler scored on a 30-yard catch from Cameron Edge to briefly reverse the momentum. The final margin was cemented by Preston Hurless' 27-yard field goal, and Lee's 11-yard pass to Francisco Pratts III.
Lee also ran for 63 yards on the day. Morgan State's loss snapped a five-game winning streak, their longest since 1979, and ended the Bears' five-game winning streak against Tennessee State since 2012.
