MURRAY, Ky. (AP) _ Justin Fuente connected with Terrence Tillman for four touchdown passes and Murray State scored two touchdowns within 34 seconds in beating Tennessee-Martin 62-14 Saturday night. Tillman, a junior wide receiver, set a Murray State single-game record with his four TD receptions as the Racers reeled off 52 consecutive points after falling behind briefly. Edward Robertson threw two touchdown passes to Rory Redmond as Tennessee-Martin (1-5, 0-4 Ohio Valley Conference) took a 14-10 lead with 35 seconds left in the first quarter. Murray State (2-3, 2-1) took the lead for good on its next possession when Shadrach Jackson raced 56 yards for a touchdown. On Tennessee-Martin's next possession, linebacker Terrell Black stripped the ball from Robertson and defensive lineman Matt Howard fell on it in the end zone for another touchdown, giving Murray State a 24-14 lead. Fuente later connected with Tillman for touchdown passes of 11, 12, 22 and 34 yards. Fuente threw another touchdown pass, a 30-yarder to Shaun Boykins, that opened the scoring for Murray State. The Racers amassed 599 yards total offense while holding the Skyhawks to 269 yards, including just 50 yards on the ground.
