Morgan State finally makes some big plays in 13-12 win over Robert Morris

Colonials miss extra point with 1:57 remaining to clinch Bears' victory

Baltimore, MD - Morgan State safety Reshaude Miller made a play that didn't score or set up any points. But it prevented points and helped turn around Saturday's game against Robert Morris.

Miller made a leaping one-handed interception that stopped the Colonials from taking a possible 10-point lead in the first half. That seemed to awaken the sluggish Bears, and they went on to make just enough well-timed big plays to escape with a 13-12 victory over Robert Morris at Hughes Stadium.

The victory ended a six-game losing streak for Morgan State (1-2), which dropped its final four games of last season.

The Bears were looking for something to give them a lift in this game, after opening the season with lopsided losses to Towson (42-3) and Bowling Green (58-13). Big plays were missing then, but they proved helpful on Saturday.
