05/29/22 - Christian Veilleux, rSr/2026, Georgia State + More +   By the time Nov. 20 rolled around, it had been more than two years since Christian Veilleux played in a competitive football game. Veilleux, who last played in 2019 as a high school junior, could feel the gravity of the moment. "It was a little crazy," Veilleux said Wednesday. "I was nervous at first. Then once the nerves left, I remember being back there and being like, it's back to high school days. I'm just playing high school ball...It took about a drive to get the shock out. Then after that I felt like I was back. It really didn't feel like it was two years from when I (last played)." Soon enough, the nerves faded and Veilleux was back in his element. He would go on to complete 15 of his 24 pass attempts for 235 yards and three touchdowns on his way to leading Penn State football to a 28-0 victory over Rutgers. That game, this spring and soon this fall could be the first glimpse into the Nittany Lions' offensive future - one led by Veilleux and a young crop of offensive weapons. The redshirt freshman quarterback has been a forgotten player of sorts since the season ended. In front of him on the depth chart is Sean Clifford - a redshirt senior who is entering his sixth year with the program and his fourth as a starter. Behind him is Drew Allar - a former five-star recruit who finished the cycle as the No. 1 quarterback in the country according to some rankings. Veilleux is stuck between them, a bridge between the present and the future that is often overlooked by some who would like to connect the end of the Clifford era to the beginning of the Allar era. - Centre Times rSr/2026 QB Christian Veilleux, Georgia State News Source: Centre Times Share/Comment: Here

12/25/21 - Darren Grainger, rSr/2024, Georgia State + More +   Darren Grainger and Georgia State saved their best for the last game of the season - and especially for a thoroughly dominating third quarter. Grainger passed for 203 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 122 yards and a fourth TD to lead Georgia State to a 51-20 victory over Ball State in the Camellia Bowl on Saturday. The Panthers (8-5) finished with their seventh win in eight games, dominated the lone bowl played on Christmas Day and set a season record for wins. Coach Shawn Elliott called it "the best performance Georgia State football has had this year." "I think we finished Christmas Day with one of the best presents we could have ever asked for and that's a commanding, dominating win," Elliott said. It was the first time the program had won back-to-back bowl games. His team was up 20-13 at halftime but scored the next 31 points. Grainger completed 15 of 19 passes and carried 11 times, including a play fake midway through the third quarter when he scampered 34 yards untouched into the end zone. It was the first 100-yard rushing game of his career, and he was named the game MVP. Ball State (6-7) couldn't summon up many big plays after Drew Plitt's 56-yard touchdown bomb to Jayshon Jackson for an early lead. The Cardinals finished with a losing record a year after coach Mike Neu led his alma mater to its first Mid-American Conference championship since 1996. - Georgia State/AP College Football rSr/2024 QB Darren Grainger, Georgia State News Source: Georgia State/AP College Football Share/Comment: Here
