Stubblefield accounts for 4 TDs, South Carolina State runs past Norfolk State 53-21
ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) Ryan Stubblefield threw for two touchdowns and ran for two more to lead South Carolina State Bulldogs to a 53-21 win over Norfolk State Spartans on Saturday.
The Bulldogs (9-2, 5-0 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference), who have their most wins since getting nine in 2013, wrapped up the conference title and a Celebration Bowl berth a week earlier. They play the Southwestern Athletic Conference champion in Atlanta on Dec. 14.
The Spartans (4-8, 2-3) led 14-10 after one quarter but the Bulldogs scored the next 29 points.
Stubblefield scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 3-yard keeper late in the second quarter, capping a seven-play, 76-yard drive. Then he found Einaj Carter for 10-yard touchdown in the third as the Spartans pulled away.
KZ Adams, who had 128 yards on 18 carries, then ran for a pair of touchdowns, making it 39-14 in the opening minute of the fourth quarter.
Jalen Daniels threw a touchdown pass and ran for a score for the Spartans.
