HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) — A.J. Turner ran for 177 yards and three touchdowns — including an 88-yard run that capped the scoring with less that 2 minutes to play — and added a 30-yard touchdown reception just before halftime to help Marshall beat Georgia State 35-20. Turner ran it in from the 2 less than 3 minutes into the game and added a 23-yard touchdown run on the first play in the second quarter that pushed the lead to 18-0. Zach Gibson threw touchdown passes of 13 yards in the second quarter and 3 yards with about 6 minutes left in the third before Liam Rickman, who made a 36-yard field goal in the first half, kicked a 20-yarder pulled Georgia State (2-4, 0-3) to 25-20 with 14:51 to play in the game.
