THIBODAUX, La. (AP) Geno Hess ran for 128 yards including a 64-yard score, Ryan Flournoy scored twice and Southeast Missouri State held on to beat Nicholls State 35-31 on Saturday for the Redhawks' third straight win.

The Redhawks (4-4) scored 22 third-quarter points, the last coming on Hess' long TD, to rally from a 21-13 halftime deficit and lead 35-28 heading into the fourth.
Flournoy had 62 yards receiving and 37 on the ground for SEMO. Patrick Heitert threw for 139 yards and a score.
McQuaide was 26-of-53 passing for 345 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Jaylon Spears had 116 yards receiving including a score. The Colonels (3-4) had a three-game win streak snapped.
