In a game that will feature two Sun Belt teams that won their opening games, the New Mexico State Aggies will visit the Georgia State Panthers on Saturday afternoon.

New Mexico State took on Cal Poly from the FCS in their opening game and were able to cruise to a 28-10 win. The Aggies held Cal Poly to just six passing yards in the game and 265 total yards. New Mexico State converted nine of their 16 third down attempts in the win and only turned the ball over once.

The Aggies' best offensive player in their opening game was running back Larry Rose III, who rushed for 149 yards and one touchdown on 30 carries. Quarterback Tyler Rogers went 18-for-27 in the game for 158 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

Georgia State was able to beat Abilene Christian 38-37 in their first game of the year, but they also showed why they are considered one of the worst teams in the FBS. They gained a total of 566 yards in that win, but their defense had a tough time and gave up 498 yards to Abilene Christian.

Georgia State quarterback Nick Arbuckle completed 31 of his 47 passes in the winning effort for 413 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions. Wide receiver Joel Ruiz caught seven passes for 111 yards and two touchdowns for the Panthers.
