Prairie View A&M outlasts Grambling in 5 overtimes 36-34

Both teams scored touchdowns and converted PATs in the first overtime and both made field goals in the second, sending the game into the third overtime and mandatory two-point conversions.

Both teams failed on their first pair of two-point tries and Grambling (3-2, 0-1 Southwestern Athletic Conference) also failed on its third, setting up the Panthers (2-3, 1-2) for the win. That came after a defensive holding call gave Prairie View the ball at the 1 and McDowell plowed through the middle.

Connor Wisham's 39-yard fourth-quarter touchdown, coming after Terrell Coleman Jr's interception, gave Prairie View A&M its first lead at 24-17 with under 10 minutes remaining. Another Panthers interception, this by Cameron Franklin, led to Jaden Johnson's 9-yard keeper to tie the score earlier in the fourth quarter.

On Grambling's final possession in regulation, Myles Crawley threw a 38-yard pass that Marquis Harris grabbed on the sideline at the Panthers 9 with a minute to go. Two plays later Crawley hit Jalen Johnson for a 12-yard score to tie the game with 38 seconds left.
