GRAMBLING, La. (AP) Geremy Hickbottom threw touchdown passes to three different receivers and Grambling State held on to defeat Mississippi Valley State 24-19 on Saturday.

Chris Fowler's 22-yard connection with Booker Chambers midway through the third quarter pulled the Delta Devils (1-7, 1-4) within 24-19 but Grambling's defense took over.
Dejerric Bryant gave MVSU a 7-0 lead with a 7-yard touchdown run on the opening possession of the game and John Derrick Smith scored on a 5-yard run with 1:19 left in the first half. Tracy Thompkins had 15 tackles for the Delta Devils.
