Tzoumakas, Wildcats Edge Morehead State in Overtime
10/17/2026 5:10:00 PM | Football
It's the second overtime victory for the Wildcats this season, after they defeated VMI 27-24 on Sept. 19, with the difference that day also being a Tzoumakas field goal. And it's the first PFL win for the Wildcats, who improved to 3-5 overall and 1-3 in the league.
With the teams tied 31-all through 60 minutes, MSU (1-6, 0-3) had the ball first in the extra session, but the Eagles' possession ended on a third-and-6 interception by Erick Bonner, who returned it 78 yards.
The Tzoumakas game-winner came after the Wildcats drove from the 25-yard line to the 16 and just moments after Davidson tied the game with 14 seconds left in regulation when quarterback Casey Bullock hit Brendan Ravin for a 12-yard touchdown pass.
Bullock led the Wildcats with 321 yards of offense, and he had a hand in four touchdowns, including three on the ground. He ran for two scores in the first quarter, beginning with a 37-yard touchdown. Later in the period, he burst for a 77-yard touchdown run down the home sideline after Morehead State defenders let him slip by.
The Wildcats trailed 17-14 at the half and 24-14 in the third before Bullock capped a 10-play, 78- yard drive with a 5-yard run. Following an Eagles' fumbled punt snap deep in Davidson territory, the Wildcats tied it at 24-all on a Tzoumakas 28-yard field goal one play into the fourth quarter.
Bullock finished 19-of-30 passing for 174 yards and connected with AJ Adams seven times for 66 yards. Bullock ran 11 times for 147 yards.
MSU did much of its offensive work through the air, as Bryce Patterson threw for 274 yards and found Anthony Ice for two touchdowns, including a 42-yard strike on a fourth-and-1 play in the second quarter. A Patterson-to-Ice 13-yard touchdown gave the Eagles their touchdown lead in the fourth.
In the early-season win over VMI, Tzoumakas kicked a 25-yard field goal to put the Wildcats ahead in overtime, and a Hayden Meese fumble recovery sealed the win.
