Kelly-to-Anthony touchdown lifts Ball State to 17-13 win over Kent State
MUNCIE, Ind. (AP) --- Kiael Kelly threw two touchdown passes, including the
go-ahead score to tight end Kameron Anthony with about two minutes remaining,
and Ball State defeated Kent State 17-13 on Wednesday night.
The Cardinals (4-5, 3-2 Mid-American Conference) trailed 13-10 with four
minutes left when, for the second time in the game, they stopped the Golden
Flashes on fourth-and-1 in Kent State territory.
The Cardinals gambled on fourth down themselves, facing fourth and 2 at the
29-yard line. Kelly threw a short pass to Anthony, who was wide open on the
left side, and Anthony scored untouched for a 17-13 lead with 1:53 remaining.
Early in the fourth quarter, a 30-yard pass from Dru DeShields to Wayne Harris
set up Kent State in scoring position and Will Hryszko's 28-yard field goal
gave the Golden Flashes a 13-10 lead.
Kelly passed for 173 yards and was the Cardinals' leading rusher with 53 yards.
DeShields passed for 212 yards and Wayne Harris had 87 receiving yards for Kent
State (3-6, 2-3).
On the opening possession of the game, the Golden Flashes failed on a
fourth-and-1 try from deep in their own territory and Ball State kicked a field
goal for a 3-0 lead.
In the second quarter, the Cardinals drove 50 yards in 13 plays culminating in
a 1-yard touchdown pass from Kelly to TJ Horton for a 10-0 lead. Ball State led
10-3 at halftime.
Harris' 24-yard return on a short punt set up Kent State at the 10-yard line
late in the third quarter. On second down from the 4, running back Donovan
Delaney Jr. took a direct snap and scored on a run up the middle to tie the
score at 10.
