Texas State had to win Saturday’s game twice to beat Georgia State, 37-34.
Ish Davis stood up after tackling Destin Coates at the maroon and gold 3-yard line on first down. He took eight steps up the field flexing as the final 15 seconds of the clock began to count down. Junior defensive lineman Caeveon Patton trailed close behind. He gave Davis a love tap on the right shoulder, then a low-five at the five-second mark.
As their hands made contact, Davis saw Georgia State (2-2, 0-1 Sun Belt) lining back up for another play. Davis bolted back to the line of scrimmage, hurdling Panthers 6-foot-3 redshirt junior left guard Shamarious Gilmore to get back on his side of the ball. Patton followed suit, rotating around redshirt freshman right tackle Travis Glover to get back on the edge.
