GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) Lamar Raynard threw for 169 yards and two touchdowns and North Carolina A&T won its sixth consecutive game 30-20 over South Carolina State on Saturday.
The win keeps the Aggies (8-1, 6-0) undefeated in MEAC play, as they are locked on a collision course with rival NC Central, who is also undefeated, for the conference title. The two schools meet the final week of the regular season.
Elijah Bell hauled in both Raynard TD throws, and Tarik Cohen added 48 yards receiving, 47 yards rushing and one score for the Aggies.
South Carolina State (3-5, 3-2) led 20-16 after three quarters, taking the lead on a Caleb York 1-yard run. However the Aggies rallied, regaining the advantage on a 9-yard Raynard TD pass. Marquis Willis added the exclamation point, intercepting a York pass and returning 29 yards for a touchdown.
York had 193 yards passing and two total TDs for the Bulldogs.
