  "account": "In a lopsided season opener, South Carolina State University handed Savannah State a 87-0 defeat on Saturday. Quarterback Keely Watson led the rout with three touchdown passes, while running back Josh Shaw added three more scores by rushing for three touchdowns. The Bulldogs amassed 423 rushing yards and seven total touchdowns on 46 carries. Watson completed 8 of his 12 passes for 95 yards, connecting with Malaqhi Jones and Mason Pickett-Hicks for scores. Ronnie Robinson contributed a 30-yard touchdown run early in the first quarter, and the Bulldogs extended their lead to 52-0 at halftime. Shaw scored on five-yard, four-yard, and ten-yard runs in the second half. Savannah State, a Division II school, ended with just 75 rushing yards and 42 passing yards. Christian Burks went 5 for 14 passing for 34 yards and an interception.",
