  Garrison Johnson bulled into the end zone from a yard out with 1:55 to play to give Citadel a 22-21 lead with less than two minutes to play and Charleston Southern missed a 44-yard field goal with seconds left in a wild season-opening rivalry game Saturday night. Second-year coach Maurice Drayton earned his first win as the Bulldogs ended a 19-game losing streak. The Bulldogs trailed 21-3 after Tyson Greenwade capped a 73-yard drive to open the second half with a 2-yard run. But after that the Buccaneers couldn't hold on. The Citadel scored on its next two drives, both 1-yard runs, first by Johnathan Bennett and then Johnny Crawford III. In both cases the Bulldogs failed on 2-point conversions.

After another Charleston Southern punt, the Bulldogs marched to the red zone but fumbled the ball away. On the next play, DaVonyae Pettis had a strip sack of Rob McCoy that Chris Benton recovered on the CSU 13, setting up the winning touchdown. The Buccaneers responded by driving from their 10, after a penalty, to The Citadel 27 but on a second-and-6 play Patrick Fisher-Butler hooked the field-goal attempt left with three seconds left. Bennett passed for 170 yards and rushed for 55 for The Citadel. McCoy threw for 290 yards and a touchdown for Charleston Southern and was the leading rusher, netting 40 yards. - AP College Football

  Jaylan Adams threw for two touchdowns and ran for two and Dominick Poole broke up a two-point conversion pass in overtime and The Citadel edged Wofford 45-44 on Saturday in the battle for the Big Dog Trophy. Adams opened the overtime with a 13-yard scamper but the Terriers came right back to score when Peyton Derrick dumped off a pass to Ryan Ingram for a 23-yard answer. But Wofford elected to go for two and Poole knocked down the slant pass.

Wofford (1-9, 0-8 Southern Conference) led 28-17 at halftime but couldn't stop the relentless ground game of The Citadel (3-7, 2-5) in this in-state rivalry. Adams was 6 of 9 for 121 yards and rushed for 53 yards. Cooper Wallace had 19 carries for 127 yards. The Citadel ran for 344 yards and piled up 465 yards on 83 plays. Wofford had 447 yards, but ran 31 fewer plays so the Terriers averaged 8.6 yards a play, three more than The Citadel, which had an 11-minute advantage in time of possession. Derrick was just 7 of 12 for 181 yards but four were touchdowns. Alec Holt had four catches for 137 yards and two scores, one covering 75 yards. Irvin Mulligan ran 13 times for 116 yards. - The Citadel/AP College Football
