Jaylen Raynor threw for 363 yards and three touchdowns and Kenyon Clay's 1-yard plunge with 42 seconds left capped Arkansas State's 30-29 win over Appalachian State to help the Red Wolves reach bowl eligibility on Saturday. Appalachian State's Dominic De Freitas pushed a 45-yard field goal wide right as time expired. De Freitas finished 5 of 7 on field goal attempts with his longest coming from 48 yards.

Arkansas State (6-6, 5-3 Sun Belt Conference) promptly moved the ball 75 yards in seven plays in just 52 seconds to set up Clay's score. The big play on the drive came on Raynor's 34-yard completion to Corey Rucker who was carried out by a Mountaineers' defender at the goal line. Chauncey Cobb caught five passes for 117 yards and Rucker had 90 yards on 10 receptions and two touchdowns for the Red Wolves.
