UNH 27, Georgia Southern 23

STATESBORO, Ga. – A long road trip to a warm climate. A rare playoff game against a team that has won six national titles. New Hampshire was bound to be overmatched and overwhelmed at Georgia Southern. Right?

Not exactly.

The Wildcats, making only the third appearance in the Division I-AA playoffs in school history and the first since 1994, overcame an early 15-point deficit to beat Georgia Southern 27-23 in a steady rain Saturday night.

The Wildcats (10-2) next will travel to Montana for the quarterfinals. Montana advanced with a 56-7 home victory over Northwestern State.
