Prairie View tops rival TSU 37-34 on late field goal

Houston, TX - Prairie View A&M kicker Chris Barrick could not have picked a better time to make his first career field goal.

The redshirt freshman connected on a 36-yarder from the left hash mark with four seconds remaining to carry the Panthers to a stunning 37-34 come-from-behind victory over rival Texas Southern in the 27th annual Labor Day Classic on Saturday night in front of 12,567 at Delmar Stadium.




Barrick's boot capped a furious rally from a 14-point, fourth-quarter deficit and helped the Panthers (1-1, 1-0 Southwestern Athletic Conference) beat the Tigers for the fifth consecutive season and seventh time in the last eight years.

"I knew it was going in," Barrick said. "I wasn't worried about missing."
