NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) --- Quasean Holmes rushed for 135 yards and a touchdown,
Josiah Harris made three interceptions and Gardner-Webb took advantage of four
takeaways to beat Tennessee State 30-14 on Saturday.
Gardner-Webb (7-4, 5-2 Big South/Ohio Valley Conference) reached seven wins for
the second time in three seasons.
Tennessee State (2-9, 0-7), one year after tying for the conference
championship and playing in the FCS playoffs, secured last place in the
standings. TSU must beat Charleston Southern on Saturday to avoid finishing
winless in the conference for the second time in history and first since 2010.
Harris intercepted Jonathan Palmer three times and Wendell McClain made the
fourth pick. Gardner-Webb's defense was coming off an 11-sack performance last
week versus Southeast Missouri State.
Cole Pennington threw for 108 yards and a touchdown for Gardner-Webb. Carson
Gresock added a touchdown on the ground.
Palmer was 7 of 14 for 43 yards for Tennessee State, which has lost four
straight games in Reggie Barlow's first season as the coach. Byron McNair threw
for 171 yards and two touchdowns.
