  Carson Gresock rushed for four touchdowns and Quasean Holmes added a 67-yard score as Gardner-Webb overpowered Lindenwood 48–20 on Saturday. Gresock found the end zone twice in the first quarter - from 3 and 20 yards out - to set the tone for the Runnin' Bulldogs. He added short touchdown runs in the second and third quarters, finishing with 119 yards on 21 carries. Holmes broke free for his own highlight, sprinting 67 yards late in the first half to give Gardner-Webb a 28–6 lead.

  Carson Gresock broke touchdown runs of 64 and 55 yards in the second quarter and Gardner-Webb scored all its points in the first half to beat Eastern Illinois 21-10 on Saturday.

Anthony Lowe led Gardner-Webb with 93 yards on six catches, and the defense forced six punts while allowing only one play longer than 20 yards. - AP College Football
