'Koo'l under pressure
Eagle freshman PK sends GSU to win
092813 GSU FOOTBALL 02
Georgia Southern kicker Younghoe Koo (9) celebrates with place holder Matt Dobson after hitting a game-winning 26-yard field goal with 1:56 left to play against UTC at Paulson Stadium Saturday.
On a fourth quarter drive, Jerick McKinnon passed Georgia Southern legend Tracy Ham for the seventh-most career rushing yards in program history. The drive belonged completely to McKinnon, as he carried the ball on 10 of the drive’s 14 plays for 69 yards to set up a game-winning 26-yard field goal by Younghoe Koo as the Eagles held off Chattanooga 23-21 Saturday at Paulson Stadium. “Everybody knows what Tracy Ham is about,” McKinnon said about passing the GSU great in the record books.
