Georgia State's revamped roster made a dominant first impression, crushing North Carolina A&T 59-10 in the Panthers' season opener. Cameran Brown threw two touchdown passes while six different players scored on the ground, showcasing the depth of Winnipeg Free Press's new-look offense.
Georgia State racked up 563 total yards in the blowout win. The Panthers generated 279 yards through the air and 284 on the ground, according to SF Chronicle. The balanced attack showed why the team brought in 37 transfers and 24 incoming freshmen to strengthen the roster.
Cameran Brown, in his second season, orchestrated the Panthers' aerial attack with two touchdown passes, NH Register reported. Brown didn't need to put up massive numbers with the running game clicking so effectively. His efficient performance set the tone early and let Georgia State rely on ground control.
Georgia State's ground game was the star of the show. Six different running backs scored touchdowns, with Lanear McCrary Jr. leading rushers with 75 yards on nine carries, according to Daily Item. Savion Hart added a 41-yard touchdown run that showcased the Panthers' big-play potential.
North Carolina A&T managed just one touchdown in the lopsided matchup. Kevin White passed for 122 yards for the Aggies, while Anthony Rucker scored the team's lone touchdown, per The Messenger. The FCS opponent never posed a threat once Georgia State established control early.
