LYNCHBURG, Va. -- Kennesaw State rushed for 498 yards and five touchdowns to beat Liberty 42-28 on Saturday.
Kennesaw State (5-1) had four players top 80 yards on the ground in the Big South Conference opener for both teams. Shaquil Terry ran for 126 yards and a TD, Jake McKenzie added 111 yards and a score, Darnell Holland gained 84 yards on six carries with two TDs, and Chandler Burks ran for 82 yards and a score.
