RUSTON, La. â Louisiana Tech (5-5, 4-2 C-USA) saw its six-bowl game winning streak reach its end on Wednesday as the Bulldogs lost, 38-3, to Georgia Southern (8-5, 4-4 Sun Belt) at the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl inside the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
âIt certainly wasnât the way that we wanted to finish,â head coach Skip Holtz said. âI was really proud of the way that the team competed. It would have been easy in a lopsided game in the way that it was for guys to throw their arms up or to lay down. I couldnât be more proud of the way the defense had continued to fight even with very little help from our offense.â
NEW ORLEANS (AP) Georgia Southern quarterback Shai Werts kept his team in suspense until pregame warmups.
That s when he started getting geared up emotionally the way he normally does on game days which teammates and coaches understood to mean that their offensive leader wasn t going to let his shoulder injury sideline him for what was likely his final game with the Eagles.
“It really energized our team,” coach Chad Lunsford said. “The guys fed off that for sure.”
Werts had three touchdown runs and threw a 65-yard scoring pass to help Georgia Southern beat Louisiana Tech 38-3 in the New Orleans Bowl on Wednesday.
