What happened
ESPN RECAPEllis, Carter lead Tennessee State to a 45-20 win over Western Illinois
MACOMB, Ill. -- , Draylen Ellis threw three touchdown passes, Tevin Carter ran for two scores and Tennessee State rolled to a 45-20 win over Western Illinois on Saturday. Ellis was 11-of-18 passing for 182 yards with an interception. Carter had 57 yards on eight carries. The Tigers (7-3, 4-2 Big South-Ohio Valley) have their most wins since 2016. CJ Evans capped a game-opening drive with a 15-yard scamper around left end. Late in the first quarter, Ellis found Gerard Bulluck wide open in the back of the end zone for a 15-yard touchdown. The Leathernecks got on the board with a field goal, but Bryant Williams made a diving catch in the end zone of Ellis' 38-yard bomb before Carter went off tackle for a short touchdown and a 28-3 lead.
