What happened

ESPN RECAP

Cooley runs for 2 fourth-quarter TDs as Liberty rallies, beats New Mexico St. 30-24

LAS CRUCES, N.M. -- , Quinton Cooley had 112 yards rushing and ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns, CJ Bazile Jr . returned a fumble 22-yard for a TD and Liberty rallied from a 14-point deficit Saturday night to beat New Mexico State 30-24. Unsportsmanlike conduct and defensive pass interference penalties gave New Mexico State set up a 2-yard scoring run by Parker Awad to make it 24-15 with 7:42 left in the game. Cooley answered with a 27-yard TD run and, after the Flames defense forced a punt, Cooley ripped off a 44-yard touchdown to cap a seven-play, 90-yard drive that gave Liberty its first lead of the game at 30-24 with 1:05 to play. Awad finished 9-of-21 passing for 156 yards with two touchdowns for the Aggies. Seth McGowan had 66 yards rushing and Mike Washington ran for 61.
