BROOKINGS, S.D. -- — Julius Loughridge scored two of South Dakota State's four rushing touchdowns and the Jackrabbits defeated Drake 37-21 on Saturday night.

South Dakota State, ranked No. 2 in the FCS coaches' poll, spotted Drake the first touchdown but Loughridge's TDs of 15 and 4 yards helped the Jackrabbits build a 28-10 lead with 11 minutes left in the third quarter.

Two-time defending Pioneer Football League champion Drake bounced back with a short rushing score by QB Logan Inagawa to make it 28-18 midway through the third.

The Jackrabbits put the game away with Ryan Harrington's 39-yard field goal and a 5-yard touchdown run by Corey Blair Jr.

The South Dakota State defense held Drake to just seven plays on two possessions between Inagawa's touchdown and a late drive that resulted in a short field goal with four seconds left.
