Head Coach Jack Crowe’s Position-by-Position Outlook QUARTERBACKS
TIGHT ENDS
“We are very fortunate to have quantity and quality at this position. It starts with Marques Ivory, who has played in just about every game since he arrived on campus. Last year, I thought he had a good season, but didn’t finish as strong as he began the season. He has taken on a different approach for his senior season and is going to try to be a more complete player at the position. He will be backed up by Coty Blanchard, who will continually compete at that position. Coty has the talent to make a difference in Marques Ivory any game, as it was obvious last year. He has come back this year more comfortable with our entire offense and able to make more of a contribution. After that, we have two people in Thomas Darrah and Steven Coates – neither of which have played. I thought Thomas (Darrah) had a pretty good spring after coming off shoulder surgery. Steven (Coates) has missed a lot of time with injuries, but both of them are credible and are capable of seeing action this year if the opportunity was there.”
“We have a couple of players with playing time in Justin Howard and Denzel Cheeks. Justin has certainly played enough football to be considered the starter at that position and he is going to be capable of bringing some plays to that position that we may not have had before. He is extremely athletic and still possesses the ability to block the line of scrimmage. He could become a feature player and is as talented of a player that we have ever had at that position. Denzel is still a developing player, but has a very unique skill set with his size and speed to make plays at that position. Behind those two are a couple of transition players that are new to our program. Jerry Slota will be working at the both the fullback spot and tight end and could Justin Howard really help us in this position. Jordan Jackson is a player that is capable of being a combination player like Slota at fullback and tight end. Both of those guys give us some diversity at the position. Rod Byrd will see some time at tight end as well as at fullback. Brandon Rodgers, whose primary role is in the kicking game, will see some playing time here. We have a fifth-year senior in Chris Nesbitt. He has developed himself into a role player who could give us a point of attack player at that position. We have a lot of versatility at this position and a lot of role players.”
RUNNING BACKS
“Running back is a position that is in a state of flux. It seems like we have had a run of really special running backs here. We have gone to more of a rotation style for that position and I would like to develop a feature player at that position. Calvin Middleton is a young man that really brings the most experience and consistency to the position. He can do it all – block, run, and catch. He has been here long enough that he can provide leadership. We have a new player that we have given a lot confidence in with Washaun Calvin Middleton Ealey. Washaun is a proven Southeastern Conference starter and he takes that position likewise. I think he and Calvin give us a starting place for a very good backfield and possibly as good as you could have anywhere. We have some developing players and all would fit into the category as young and talented. DeMarcus James was a much heralded recruit, as was Rashod Byers. They are different kinds of backs – Marcus is the big back and very complete back that can do it all. Rashod is the breakaway player, who may be as fast and quick as anyone on our football team. Still in the mix is Rayce Whiddon, a role player looking for an opportunity this fall to make more of a contribution. Other role players in the backfield include Rod Byrd, a very talented young man that has played a lot of positions and looks to contribute this season. Cole Doolittle is a role player going into his final year. He has primarily become a blocker for us and has seen a lot of action on special teams. I do expect him to make a contribution in the backfield.”

OFFENSIVE LINE
“This is an area that could undergo the most development or change as we go into the preseason. We have a couple of players who have played good football for us in this group. One is coming back from injury and everything else is going to be new. The two tackles, Odie Rush and Tori Mobley, both played considerable football last year. Matt Jones is coming back from an ACL injury and brings us two years of experience as a previous starter. That is where the offensive line starts – the development Odie Rush of the right guard and the center are going to be paramount. Max Holcombe is a player who redshirted last year and has created some expectations of himself at center. Michael Ellis at right guard brings maturity and playing experience, but it’s a new playing position for him. We will see how the development of those two players leads the way in simulating a starting unit. There is plenty of competition. It is the one area that has to redefine itself. We have had a couple of years that we haven’t been consistent running the football and that starts up front, so we will be targeting that.”

DEFENSIVE LINE

OVC
“We open with a conference football game that creates some urgency. You can’t win (the OVC) if you don’t win early. I’m glad its that way and I think we need that urgency. I think it gives us an August focus that we haven’t had since we are usually opening up against a BCS school. It should make us a better football team at the end, which we weren’t last year. I do like our schedule, and I don’t think there is anyone on our football schedule that we can’t beat. We just have to develop our team past the inexperience and our weaker areas, so we aren’t vulnerable to match ups that can get us in tight games. History has proven that there are a lot of tight games out there. We have to make sure that we don’t have a breaking point on our team in those close situations.”
HISTORY
On the Schedule
RECORDS
“James Esco returns as our kicker with competition from Griffin Thomas. James had an inconsistent year last year, but his training and routine have been so much better that I look for his consistency to emerge. The punting is handled by Coty Blanchard as well as Rod Byrd, who is very capable at that position. I think we have returners and I like our snappers. This should be a year that we finally have a complete kicking game that will give us an advantage in every football game we play.”
REVIEW
“We have a young but extremely talented group. There is one older player in the mix and that is Brannon Byrd. His leadership there will be critical. With him are a lot of sophomores that have had playing time and have the talent to play really good football. We have added along with James Powell, Rashad Smith and Laquintez Reynolds. We have added two transfer talents in Tanner Robertson and Clarence Jackson. Both will look to add to the ability of the linebackers to match up and run to play physical football.”

Linebackers
“Cornerbacks is always a catch-up situation. We are just very blessed to have two senior starting corners in A.J. Davis, who is going into his fourth year as a player and third as a starter, and you have Jawaan Booker. Both have played a lot of football and are very savvy football players. We are very fortunate to have that kind of experience and talent at this position. We are working to develop depth for the future and for this season. Francis Duncan is a player that has been emerging along with two freshman signees, who bring some talent. Brandon Bender and Denzel Bynum are both talented enough to play the position and hopefully there will be some rotation there and keep our ability to defend against the pass.”
ABOUT JSU
“The defensive line has become the strongest part of our football team as a unit. It starts with Monte Lewis, who has fully developed into a player that stands alone on our football field in terms of his size and speed and shear determination. He appears to have some football in him after his senior year. Along with him is Jamison Wadley, who probably brings more leadership than any one player we’ve had on defense in several years. Rodney Garrott is the third senior in that group and likewise, his quickMonte Lewis ness and skills standalone. Any of these three would be the best that we have had in their positions. The fourth one in that front four is DiMetrio Tyson, who we thought we were playing out of position by playing him on the inside, but we found out in the spring that he has a real knack for playing by the kind of blocks that he gets at this position. With three seniors and a junior and all of them with multiple years of experience, it’s the best unit on this football team and the best single unit we have had in the years since I have been here.”
Cornerbacks
COACHES
“Safety is a position that we have made the most improvement, partly because we have gotten older and we have added some extremely talented young men. It starts with our senior Jason Horton, who is a dynamic leader on our whole football team. Keginald Harris has a year under his belt and will be a junior this season. Brooks Robinson, who is probably our best special teams football player, and then you add Jason Horton Robert Gray, a very talented young man, and then two other first-year talents with Pierre Warren and Jamaal Johnson. It appears that this position has come along further than where we were this time last year.
GAMECOCKS
“Wide receiver is a position that is emerging as a strong area based on the development of three experienced players and some emerging young talent. Senior James Shaw and juniors Alan Bonner and Kevyn Cooper are three guys that have seen a lot of action and have made big catches to win games. All three of them have made critical winning catches in critical situations for us in the past. All of them are different. Allen and James Shaw James have the pure open-field talent to return kicks and run with the ball. Kevyn has the ability to get open and all three of them should be better this season. I think we will be better at this position because of them. We add to that with Trey Smith, who gives us a big position type receiver that we haven’t had in a long time. Gabriel Chambers will be a first-year player for us and the fall camp will be important for him. Both of these guys are one-of-a-kind in our recruiting because of speed and size and both bring a dimension that should make our receiving corp as good or better than its ever been.”

INTRO
There have been many successful coaches in the 64-year history of the Ohio Valley Conference. Among those include Eastern Kentucky’s Roy Kidd, MTSU’s Boots Donnelly, and EIU’s Bob Spoo, who all three coaches have combined to win 559 games.
You can count Jack Crowe among that elite group as his 76.2 percent winning percentage in conference games is tops among all active coaches in the league. He has guided the Gamecocks to an eight-year mark of 48-15, while posting the best record in the OVC in 2003, 2004 and 2009. Crowe, who begins his 12th season leading Jax State, has guided the Gamecocks to eight consecutive winning seasons, which is the longest such streak in almost 20 years. The 2010 senior class left as the winningest four-year class since the Gamecocks left the Division II ranks in 1993. The senior class finished with a four-year record of 31-13, which is the most wins of any other four-year class since JSU moved to Division I. The Gamecocks enter the 2011 preseason having been ranked in the football polls for 30 consecutive weeks, which is the longest such stretch in the school’s 108-year football history. Jax State is the winningest team, by percentage, in the Ohio Valley Conference and in all of FCS football since joining the league in 2003. The Gamecocks have won 76.6 percent of their conference games, posting a 48-15 record, while Eastern Kentucky is second with a 70.6 all-time winning percentage. On the field, Crowe is a proven winner. He’s a skilled manager who brings to Gamecock football expertise, an eye for evaluating talent, and a personality that has energized the program. In 2003, his squad posted an impressive 7-1 league mark and claimed the Ohio Valley Conference Championship with a 22-17 win over Southeast Missouri State on Nov. 22, leading the Gamecocks to their first-ever Football Championship Subdivision playoff berth. The 2004 Gamecocks earned their second-straight Ohio Valley Conference Championship with an impressive 7-1 league record and finished the regular season with an incredible 9-1 overall record. For his efforts, Crowe was named the Roy Kidd OVC Football Coach of the Year by his peers for the 2004 season. Jax State also posted the best record in the Ohio Valley Conference in 2009 with a 9-3 mark and was just 53 seconds away from upsetting BCS national power Florida State. In 2010, Crowe led the Gamecocks to one of the most successful seasons in the school’s Division I history, posting a 9-3 overall record,
90 2011 Gamecocks Football
and was ranked as high as No. 2 during the season. JSU also advanced to the second round of the NCAA playoffs and hosted its first home playoff game in 18 years at the newly renovated Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium while also claiming one of the biggest wins in school history with a 49-48 double-overtime thriller at Ole Miss. A native of Birmingham, Crowe has coached over 35 years at some of the top programs in the country. During his career, he has worked at Auburn, Baylor, Arkansas, Clemson and Wyoming on the Division I-A level and also has college coaching stints at North Alabama and Livingston (now West Alabama). Crowe was named the head coach at Arkansas in January of 1990 after serving one year as offensive coordinator. He coached the Razorbacks to the 1991 Independence Bowl as head coach and the 1990 Cotton Bowl as an assistant, posting a 19-14 record. He was offensive coordinator at Baylor from 1993 to 1995 and led the Bears to the 1994 Southwest conference championship. He spent three years as the offensive coordinator at Clemson, where the Tigers posted a 29-6-1 record and won three-straight Atlantic Coast Conference Championships. His offense led the ACC in rushing in each of his three seasons. Under his guidance, Clemson played twice in the Florida-Citrus Bowl and once in the Gator Bowl. Crowe spent four seasons as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Auburn before moving to Clemson. The Tigers led the SEC twice in total offense and three times in rushing. Auburn played in the Florida-Citrus, Sugar, Liberty and Cotton Bowl games, and Bo Jackson became a Heisman Trophy winner under Crowe’s tutelage. Crowe spent the 1981 season at Wyoming, where the Cowboys finished 8-3. From 1978-80, he was the offensive coordinator at North Alabama. The Lions went 17-7 and won the 1980 Gulf South Conference title. He served as offensive coordinator at Livingston for three seasons (1974-76) before being elevated to head coach at age 28. Crowe got his start in coaching without playing college football. He played football and baseball at West End High School in Birmingham, then went to Jefferson State Junior College, where he stuck to baseball. He transferred to UAB and, after graduating with a degree in chemistry, became an assistant at West End High School. A year later, he became offensive coordinator at Oxford High School, where he led the Yellow Jackets to a 21-11 record and two conference titles. Crowe is married to the former LeAnn Gaines of Anniston.

Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium The Jacksonville State University Board of Trustees approved to name its football field Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium in the summer of 2010 and the Gamecocks will play their 64th season in the facility this year.
Long ago, in the days when Jacksonville State University went by Jacksonville State Teachers College and the athletic teams were nicknamed the “Eagle Owls,” football was played in a field next to John Forney National Guard Armory.
In 1946 as JSU began to change, enrollment begin to rise and so did the popularity of football. Seeing the need for a new facility, the school built a stadium in the present location and it was dedicated in front of an overflow crowd at the 1947 Homecoming game against Pembroke. The Gamecocks went on to win that game and posted a perfect 9-0 season, including a 7-0 win over Florida State. The “College Bowl” as it was called, was renamed in 1961 to honor longtime JSU supporter Paul Snow. Then in July of 2010, the stadium was renamed Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium.
The stadium got a facelift in 1965 when seating was expanded from 5,000 to 8,500 and a new press box was installed on the north side of the facility. Under the supervision of long-time Athletic Director Jerry N. Cole, the field house was constructed in 1977 and the expansion of the stadium was complete in time for the 1978 season when the student section was added to bring the capacity to 15,000. Since opening in 1946, Jacksonville State has posted an incredible 23994-8 record at home. Under Crowe, the Gamecocks are 39-17 all-time at home.
JSU Stadium just completed a $47 million expansion just in time for the 2010 season. The new facility consists of seven stories, with the bottom four floors dedicated to nearly 400 dorm beds. The top three floors will include 33 luxury skyboxes, a new press area, coaches booths, radio and

television broadcast facilities, and a game management booth. The stadium was also expanded and now includes 24,000 seats.
The natural playing surface was replaced during the summer of 2005 to an artificial playing turf. It was the first major renovation to the stadium since the 1978 season. It took three months to install at a cost of just over $700,000 and was completed in time to hold summer graduation on the new playing field.
Improvements in 2007 included two new scoreboards and the addition of “Gamecock Vision” a new video replay scoreboard. It is located in the east endzone and features a 14’ x 24’ ProStar VideoPlus Display that is one of the largest in the OVC. The video replay system utilizes the V-Link 4000 Video Processor and the Venus 7000 Controler. The scoreboard now spans 8’ by 48’ with LED Team Name Message Centers. On the Gamecock Field House, a new scoreboard was installed as Burgess-Snow Field is the only on-campus facility in the OVC to feature two scoreboards. Jacksonville State’s first win in renovated Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium came the hard way, in 2010, but it is one Gamecock fans remember well.
After a lightning delay that pushed kickoff back 86 minutes, the 22,186 in attendance saw the fifth-ranked Jacksonville State football team score 21 unanswered points to pull of its second fourth-quarter come-frombehind win, a 21-17 thriller over Chattanooga.
One week after the second-largest crowd to ever watch JSU play saw the Gamecocks rally for a double-overtime win over Ole Miss, the largest home crowd in Gamecock history saw junior Marques Ivory find junior James Shaw for a 72-yard touchdown strike with 1:16 remaining and hand the Mocs (0-2) their second heartbreaking loss in as many weeks.
The record for a single-game crowd for a football game at Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium was set in stadium dedication game of 2010 versus Chattanooga when 22,186 fans witnessed the Gamecocks claim a 21-17 win over the Mocs.

Ryals, Jr., as the first president. The school opened with three instructors: W. J. Borden, Mathematics; Eliza A. Bowen, English; and Ida J. Woodward, primary department. As stipulated in the establishing act, the Normal School administered a preparatory school for children of the town and surrounding areas. At the end of the first year, on August 15, 1884, William Mark Hames, President of the Board of Directors, reported that funds totaling $4,751.25 had been received, including $2,500 from the state; that 25 students were enrolled in the normal school; and that 222 were in the preparatory school.

OXFORD, Miss. - On the final crazy play of a crazy game, Jacksonville State running back Calvin Middleton found himself in the middle of a mass of bodies as quarterback Coty Blanchard lofted a 2-point conversion pass toward the end zone.
02:55 00:18
UM JSU
Somehow, through the arms and legs, Middleton came down with the football as the Gamecocks celebrated a stunning 49-48 victory over Mississippi in double overtime.

“The coaches called a shovel pass,” Middleton said. “I don’t even know if (Blanchard) saw me, but I knew if I could catch it I was deep enough in the end zone to score.

“This means everything.” Blanchard threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to Kevyn Cooper on fourth-and-15 to pull within 48-47 in the second overtime. It looked like the two teams might play all night, but then Gamecocks coach Jack Crowe made the call to go for the win in the season opener for both teams. “I just didn’t think we could play defense again,” Crowe said. Crowe, who had tears in his eyes during the postgame press conference, was fired as coach at Arkansas in 1992 after his team lost to The Citadel - which was also a lower-level program.

“If you stay in this long enough, it goes both ways,” Crowe said. Jacksonville State, a Football Championship Subdivision team from the Ohio Valley Conference, trailed 31-10 at halftime but outscored Ole Miss 21-3 in the fourth quarter to force overtime. “Without a doubt, it’s the worst loss of my career,” Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt said. It’s the first time Jacksonville State has beaten a Football Bowl Subdivision team since Sept. 27, 2001, when the Gamecocks beat Arkansas State. The 21-point deficit was the largest Jacksonville State has overcome in school history. Jeremiah Masoli made his much-anticipated debut for Mississippi after being cleared by the NCAA on Friday. He completed 7 of 10 passes for 109 yards and one interception and led the Rebels on both of their touchdown drives in overtime. Like the rest of his teammates, he had a hard time explaining the collapse. “Crazy stuff happens sometimes,” Masoli said. “I never expected us to be in overtime.” Ole Miss is 6-6 all-time in overtime games. It was the school’s first loss to an FCS opponent. The Ole Miss offense, which debuted eight new starters, scored on five of six first-half possessions, including four touchdowns. After that, Jacksonville State rolled. The Gamecocks scored on their final six possessions, including touchdowns on the last five. The Ole Miss defense, which returned six starters, ranked in the top half of the Southeastern Conference in most major categories last season, but had no answer for the Gamecocks. Ole Miss kicker Bryson Rose made a 35-yard field goal to extend the Rebels’ lead to 34-26 with 2:55 left in regulation, but Jacksonville State drove the field for a touchdown to pull within 34-32 with 18.9 seconds left. Marques Ivory threw a 2-yard pass to La’Ray Williams for the twopoint conversion to tie the game at 34 and send it to overtime. Middleton rushed for 67 yards and a touchdown. The Gamecocks had no turnovers. Using a two-quarterback system with Blanchard and Ivory, the duo combined to complete 22 of 36 passes for 252 yards and four touchdowns. Mississippi’s Brandon Bolden rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries. Sophomore Nathan Stanley threw for 133 yards and three touchdowns.

September 11, 2010 Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium - Jacksonville, Ala. JACKSONVILLE – The first game in the newly remodeled and newly named Burgess-Snow Field was worth the wait. After a lightning delay that pushed kickoff back 86 minutes, the 22,186 in attendance saw the fifth-ranked Jacksonville State football team score 21 unanswered points to pull of its second fourth-quarter come-from-behind win, a 21-17 thriller over Chattanooga. One week after the second-largest crowd to ever watch JSU play saw the Gamecocks (2-0) rally for a double-overtime win over Ole Miss, the largest home crowd in Gamecock history saw
2010 Game Summaries junior Marques Ivory find junior James Shaw for a 72-yard touchdown strike with 1:16 remaining and hand the Mocs (0-2) their second heartbreaking loss in as many weeks. JSU, who added hall of fame coach Bill Burgess’ name to its improved home in a pregame ceremony, got off to a slow start, turning the ball over three times in the first half and mustering just 93 yards of total offense before taking a 10-0 deficit into the locker room at the half.
Senior John Houston Whiddon led the Gamecock offense with a career-high seven catches for 68 yards, while senior Alphonso Freeney led the ground attack with 54 yards on just seven touches.
Junior corner A.J. Davis and senior linebacker Antonio Bonner each recorded eight tackles to lead the JSU defense, while junior Brannon Byrd added seven tackles and two sacks.
UTC’s defense put points on the board itself with 6:20 left in the first half, when a Chaz Moore hit knocked the ball from Jamal Young’s hands. Jaron Norfleet scooped up the loose ball and went uncontested into the endzone to put the Mocs up 10-0.
The Mocs took the ensuing possession down to the Gamecocks’ 10 yard line but turned it over on downs instead of attempting a 29-yard field goal on fourth and four from the 12. JSU took over with 2:20 to play and worked their magic, when the sixth play of the drive saw Ivory find Shaw for the winner. Griffin Thomas pooched the ensuing kickoff and watched it slip through Shane Heatherly’s hands. Jawaan Booker recovered the loose ball, and JSU ran all but six seconds off the clock, not enough for the Mocs to make a last attempt. Score by Quarters UT Chattanooga Jacksonville State

ATLANTA – The Jacksonville State football team needed overtime to escape the Georgia Dome with a hard-fought 34-27 win over upstart Georgia State.

After a pair of touchdown drives that cut a 17-0 UTC lead to just a three-point advantage, JSU got the stop it needed on defense and then used its longest scoring play of the season to provide the fireworks. The scoring drive was the Gamecocks’ seventh-straight possession in the fourth quarter or later that resulted in a touchdown and gave Jax State its first 2-0 start since the 2004 season.

JSU needed four rushing plays, the last a four-yard scoring run from Ivory, to drive the 25 yards on its overtime possession. Clinging to the seven-point lead, the Gamecock defense forced a fourth-and-goal from the two for the Panthers (1-2). At the end of a night that saw JSU flagged 13 times to GSU’s four, one official signaled a touchdown after watching Emmanuel Ogbuehi haul in a Kelton Hill pass with his leg lying out of bounds. As the Panthers and most of the 16,128 in attendance erupted in celebration, the call was corrected and the Gamecocks celebrated their seventh-straight win. www.JSUGamecockSports.com

INTRO
Young, a senior from Jackson, Miss., led the JSU rushing attack with 64 yards on nine carries, thanks to 58 yards on six carries after the third quarter. In the absence of leading rusher Calvin Middleton to a foot injury, the Gamecocks spread 39 carries among five players and totaled 167 of their 450 yards on the ground. Freshman Darius Barksdale ran for 37 yards and his first career touchdown on 14 carries. The Panthers, in their third game in program history, put the ball in the air 40 times to account for 227 of their 339 yards of total offense. Quarterback Drew Little completed 25 of his 28 pass attempts for 227 yards and an interception, while tailback Travis Evans ran for 54 yards on seven carries to led the GSU ground game. Sophomore Keginald Harris got the Gamecocks’ interception and broke up a pair of passes, the latter being on the final play of the game. He added four tackles, three behind a threeway tie between Antonio Bonner, T.J. Heath and Morrell Jones for the team lead on the afternoon. The Gamecocks took the opening kickoff and drove down the field before stalling inside the Panthers’ 10-yard line. James Esco, capped the 13-play, 69-yard drive with a 20-yard field goal that gave the Gamecocks an early 3-0 lead. That lead would be short-lived, as the Panthers would use a good return on the ensuing kick to set up a 41-yard score on a reverse by Darren McCray that gave them a 7-3 lead with 6:23 on the first quarter clock. Jax State answered with the next possession, driving 78 yards in 11 plays to close the first quarter, setting up a four-yard touchdown pass from Ivory to Jamal Young. The Gamecocks’ first offensive touchdown in the first half this season put them back on top 10-7 with 14:54 remaining in the half. The Panthers started their next drive at their own 39 and took it into Gamecock territory before stalling. Iain Vance picked up the slack for the GSU offense, sneaking a 39-yard field goal just over the crossbar and tying the game at 10-10 with 10:38 to play. JSU would use a late drive to reclaim the lead before the half. Blanchard scampered in from four yards out to finish off the 49-yard drive and give the Gamecocks a 17-10 half time advantage, their first lead at the intermission this season. The Panthers started the second half with a drive, but the Gamecock defense wouldn’t break once the ball got deep in their territory. Vance put three points on the board from 25 yards out, cutting the JSU lead to 17-13 with 8:34 to play in the third. The Gamecocks answered with a field goal of their own after a penalty stalled their drive inside the 10. Esco’s 27 yarder was true and gave the Gamecocks a 20-13 lead with 12 seconds left in the third. The Gamecocks couldn’t wrap up GSU running back Travis Evans on the Panthers’ next drive, one that was capped by a 46-yard scoring run that tied the game at 20-20 with 13:26 remaining in the game. They did answer again, thanks to a 69-yard drive that was capped by Darius Barksdale’s first career touchdown run. The one-yard plunge gave JSU its fourth lead of the afternoon, a 27-20 advantage with 9:38 remaining on the clock. The Panthers dealt the next blow in the slugfest, a 13-plat, 75-yard drive that was aided by a few timely penalties and a pair of key third-down conversions. Little pushed it in from the one with 3:57 to play and Vance’s kick tied it at 27-27, the third tie of the day. The Gamecocks got the ball back with a little under four minutes to play, but they couldn’t stop the clock from running out before attempting a field goal, sending the game into overtime.

122 2011 Gamecocks Football
October 9, 2010 Hardy M. Graham Stadium – Martin, Tenn.
The third-ranked Gamecocks (6-0, 3-0 Ohio Valley Conference) never trailed for the first time in six games before stretching their winning streak to 10 games and claiming their ninthstraight win on the road. The 10-game stretch is the longest in the nation at the FCS level and ties for the fourth-longest in school history. The win also improved JSU to 26-6 all-time against the Skyhawks (2-4, 2-2 OVC) and 11-3 in Martin. JSU turned its attention to the ground as they improved to 6-0 for the first time since 2004 and extended the OVC’s longest win streak since 1999. The Gamecocks ran for 172 yards on 38 carries, led by junior Calvin Middleton’s 97 yards on 15 touches. The native of Acworth, Ga., also scored his first touchdown since the season opener, a 31-yard run up the middle in the third quarter. Senior Jamal Young ran for 24 yards on eight carries and caught one pass for a 12-yard touchdown. The Jackson, Miss., native’s catch from junior Marques Ivory was his third in 2010, the most by a JSU running back since the Gamecocks moved to Division I in 1995. The Gamecocks got 91 yards and a score on 7-of-12 passing from Ivory, while freshman Coty Blanchard completed one of his seven passes for a four-yard touchdown pass to sophomore Denzel Cheeks. The catch was the first of Cheeks’ career and made him the 13th Gamecock to catch a pass this season. Junior James Shaw hauled in a team-high three catches for 32 yards and a score. The Skyhawks used 338 passing yards by Derek Carr to outgain the Gamecocks, 427-267. Carr completed 31 of his 50 passes for two scores and an interception, as JSU was outgained for the third-straight week. Jason McNair was Carr’s favorite target, as the two connected on nine passes for 57 yards, but Jarvis Perry made the most out of his six catches. The junior’s career-high in receptions led to 122 yards, also a career best. Junior Jamison Wadley and senior Antonio Bonner each recorded six tackles to lead the Gamecock defense. Wadley, a native of Gadsden, Ala., had a sack and another tackle for a loss to spark a JSU front that recorded three sacks and six tackles in the backfield on the afternoon. Sophomore Keginald Harris had an interception that he returned 45 yards, the fourth pick of the season for the native of Town Creek, Ala. Josh Bey’s 12 tackles led the Skyhawks’ defense. The Gamecocks jumped out to an unusual early lead, thanks to a 12-yard screen pass from Ivory to Shaw that gave JSU a 7-0 advantage. Jax State’s first touchdown of the season on its opening possession capped a seven-play, 55-yard drive and came just 3:35 into the game. They added three more just five minutes later on a 22-yard field goal by James Esco. The sophomore from Leesburg, Ga., split the uprights with 6:18 on the first-quarter clock to polish off a 47-yard drive that took eight plays and ate just under four minutes off of the clock. UTM used a 42-yard kick from Cody Sandlin on the first play of the second quarter to cut the JSU lead to 10-3. After a defensive stop on the ensuing possession, the Skyhawks got three more on a 21-yard field goal by Sandlin with 9:28 to play in the half. The drive, which was started by a 61-yard pass from Carr to Perry, stalled at the JSU two after a defensive stand by the Gamecocks. The Gamecocks stretched the lead to 16-6 on their next drive, one that started with a 27-yard run by Blanchard and ended with a four-yard pass form Blanchard to Cheeks. The first career reception by the sophomore from Swainsboro, Ga., was the seventh play of the 62-yard scoring drive. UTM’s Karlos Jones blocked the Esco point after attempt to leave the deficit at 16-6 with 6:46 to play in the half. Harris set up JSU’s next score with a interception of Carr that he returned 45 yards to the Skyhawks’ 27. A Personal foul on UTM set the Gamecocks up at the 12-yard line, from where Ivory found Young three-plays later in the back of the end zone. Esco’s kick gave JSU a 23-6 lead with just 41 seconds to play before the half. JSU picked up where it left off in the second half, using a three-play stop on defense to set up a 31-yard touchdown run up the middle by Middleton. The run capped a three-play drive that covered 40 yards and gave the Gamecocks a 30-6 lead with 11:41 to play in the third. The Skyhawks used a big play to cut into the JSU lead late in the third, thanks to a 42-yard pass from Carr to Bryant Milligan. UTM’s first touchdown of the day cut the JSU lead to 30-13 with 3:03 remaining in the quarter.
2010 Game Summaries UTM got another score with 5:39 to play on a Daniel Chamberlain catch from six yards out. Carr’s second touchdown pass of the day went through linebacker Rodney Garrott’s hands and found Chamberlain’s in the end zone to cut the JSU lead to 30-20. UTM would get a stop and force the Gamecocks to punt, but its offense couldn’t put together another drive.

Blanchard’s punt team was also a catalyst for the Gamecocks on Saturday. His fake set up JSU’s first score of the day, while a TSU fumble on his next punt was recovered inside the 20 and set up Blanchard’s scoring pass. Junior James Shaw led the JSU receiving corps with three catches for 40 yards and his touchdown, an 18-yard haul from Blanchard. Senior John Houston Whiddon also had three catches for 23 yards, while Justin Howard and Jamal Young each had a pair of receptions. The Tigers’ Dante’ Thomas ran for 94 yards on 18 carries, while Perry tossed for 65 yards and was sacked three times. Junior Rodney Garrott had one of those sacks to pace his six-tackle afternoon. He was one off of the team lead of seven by senior Antonio Bonner. Sophomore Keginald Harris intercepted his fifth pass of the season, a category he led the OVC in entering Saturday. The Gamecocks made a total of seven stops behind the line of scrimmage, two of which were in the arms of Garrott. The Gamecocks pulled a little trickery out of their bag on their first drive of the game. Facing a three-and-out, punter Coty Blanchard kept the ball and scampered 24 yards for a first down to the Tigers’ 30-yard line. Two plays later, Middleton found a crease off left tackle and took it 32 yards to the endzone to give the Gamecocks a 7-0 lead with 9:29 remaining in the first quarter.

October 23, 2010 Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium – Jacksonville, Ala. JACKSONVILLE – The third-ranked Jacksonville State football team put on a show for its largest Homecoming crowd ever by rolling to a 56-3 win over Austin Peay at Burgess-Snow Field. The Gamecocks (8-0, 5-0 Ohio Valley Conference) ran the longest winning streak in the nation and their longest since 1991 to 12 games and did so in convincing fashion. The win was the most lopsided in JSU’s OVC history and was the biggest on Homecoming since 1989. The dozen wins in a row is the longest streak by an OVC team since Eastern Kentucky’s 12 in a row in 1991 and ties for the third longest in the Gamecocks’ 107-year football history. The 19,707 fans in attendance saw the Gamecocks dominate from start to finish, outgaining the Govs (2-5, 1-3 OVC), 539-157. They ran for a season-high 332 yards and threw for 232 more, while Peay managed just 67 on the ground and 90 through the air. The Govs did score first, on a field goal less than three minutes in, but watched Jax State rattle off then next 56 en route to the rout. The run was the largest stretch of unanswered points by the Gamecocks in their Division I history. For the first time in school history, three JSU players threw for a touchdown. Junior Marques Ivory completed his first 10 attempts of the day to lead the trio and finished 10-for-12 for 145 yards and two touchdowns, while freshman Coty Blanchard was 4-for-4 for 25 yards and a pair of scores. Junior Thomas Darrah orchestrated the final drive of the game and completed all three attempts for 62 yards and his first career touchdown. Senior Jamal Young led eight Gamecocks with at least one carry on the ground with 105 yards on eight rushes. Senior Alphonso Freeney scored a career-high three touchdowns on a night that saw him run seven times for 47 yards. Blanchard scampered for 82 yards on nine rushes,

thanks to a 46-yard run in the second quarter. Junior James Shaw ended up in the end zone on two of his three catches, while sophomores Alan Bonner and Kevyn Cooper also hauled in three catches, apiece. Cooper had 62 yards and a score, while senior Jeffrey Cameron led all players with 64 yards on two catches. Young had two catches for 11 yards and a score, extending his school record for touchdown catches in a season by a running back to four. The Gamecock defense also shined on Saturday, limiting a Govs offense that entered the day averaging 152 yards rushing per game to minus-11 yards in the first half and 67 in the game. JSU has now held its foes without a touchdown for eight-straight quarters, a stretch that dates back to the final six minutes of the UT Martin game two weeks ago. Junior Brannon Byrd led the JSU defense with seven tackles, one for a loss, and the first interception of his career. The Lucedale, Miss., native picked off a Jake Ryan pass in the third quarter and tripped in the open field seven yards into his return. Ryan completed 12 of his 20 pass attempts for 90 yards and one interception, while Ryan White, the OVC’s fourth-leading rusher, managed just 18 yards on 10 carries. The Gamecocks dominated the first half, outgaining the Govs 362-53 to take a 35-3 lead into the locker room. The 32-point advantage is the largest at the half in JSU’s Division I history, while the 35 points were the most in a half since the Gamecocks scored 35 at Murray State on Oct. 5, 2006. JSU’s quarterbacks combined to go 13-for-13 for 165 yards and four touchdown passes in the first 30 minutes.

Jacksonville State • • • • • • • • • 29 Southeast Missouri• • • • • • • • • 27 November 13, 2010 Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium – Jacksonville, Ala.
In the first Top 10 matchup between two Ohio Valley Conference Schools in 15 years, the Gamecocks (9-1, 6-1 Ohio Valley Conference) got a 17-yard pass from junior Marques Ivory to sophomore Alan Bonner with 11 seconds to play, erasing a five-point deficit and capping a drive that looked like it was doomed just five plays earlier. With a first down play at the SEMO (9-2, 7-1 OVC) 37-yard line, the Gamecocks snapped the ball past Ivory and sophomore Calvin Middleton fell on it at JSU’s 42. Facing a second-and-31 with a minute to play and no time outs remaining, Ivory found senior Jeffrey Cameron on a 29-yard strike across the middle then kept the third-down snap and picked up the first down to keep the drive alive. Middleton took the quarterback’s shuttle pass for nine yards on the next play, setting up the winning score. Ivory, a native of Warner Robins, Ga., found a diving Bonner just inside the right side of the end zone, putting the Gamecocks up and securing their seventh come-from behind win of the season. The fourth win in JSU’s final possession this season also keeps the Gamecocks’ OVC title hopes alive heading into next week’s season finale at Tennessee Tech. Ivory finished the day with 222 yards and a score on 18-of-26 passing. He also threw one interception. His favorite target was Cameron, who hauled in five catches for 80 yards in his home finale. Middleton ran for two scores but freshman Darius Barksdale carried the load of JSU’s 170 rushing yards. The transfer from Ole Miss and native of Batesville, Miss., ran for a career-high 113 yards on a career-high 20 carries, mostly after starting tailback Jamal Young went down with a first-half knee injury. The OVC’s leading rusher, Henry Harris, ran for 134 yards on 21 carries for the Redhawks, while quarterback Matt Scheible ran for 60 yards and two scores on 12 rushes. Scheible also passed for 145 yards and a touchdown on a 13-for-22 night. Junior Jason Horton led the Gamecock defense with 11 tackles, one for a loss. JSU got six tackles in the Redhawks’ backfield, two by junior Jamison Wadley.
REVIEW
JSU answered on the ensuing possession, a 10-play, 74-yard drive that ended with a Middleton touchdown run from one yard out. James Esco followed the 4:30 drive with the extra point to tie that game at 7-7 with 14:14 to play in the opening half.
RECORDS
Esco would account for the Gamecocks’ next six points, thanks to a 34-yard field goal with 10:06 to play in the second quarter and a 42-yard kick with 11:10 to play in the third. The Redhawks reclaimed the lead with just over three minutes left in the third on Scheibel’s second scoring run, His seven-yard scamper capped an 11-play, 80-yard drive that gave SEMO a 14-13 advantage that it took into the fourth quarter.
HISTORY
The Redhawks took advantage of a 20-yard punt from Coty Blanchard that set SEMO up at the Gamecocks’ 30-yard line late in the first quarter. A 25-yard pass from Scheible to Miles Edwards on the drive’s first play set up the game’s first score, a one-yard Scheible run that gave the Redhawks a 7-0 lead with 3:49 to play in the quarter.
JSU answered again to take back the lead early in the fourth. Middleton’s second touchdown run of the day, a two-yard push, gave the Gamecocks a 19-14 lead with 13:18 remaining in the game. An Ivory pass attempt on the two-point conversion missed La’Ray Williams on the goal line, leaving the JSU advantage at five.

JACKSONVILLE – In a season of unbelievable comebacks, the No. 6 Jacksonville State football team may have pulled of the most improbable one of the year in a 29-27 win over No. 7 Southeast Missouri at Burgess-Snow Field.
The Gamecock defense got a stop on SEMO’s ensuing possession but a fumble by Bonner on the punt return put the Redhawks in business at the Gamecocks’ 23-yard line. They would take advantage of their second drive starting inside the JSU 30, using a 19-yard pass from Scheibel to D.J. Foster to put them up 21-19 with 10:46 to play. Bonner got a bit of redemption on the ensuing kick, returning it 54 yards to the Redhawks’ 40. The return set up a 25-yard field goal by Esco, his third of the day, with 6:43 to play that put a 22-21 lead on JSU’s side of the scoreboard. The Redhawks needed just 2:37 to answer, thanks in large part to a 41-yard run by Harris on the first play of their next drive. He finished the five-play, 64-yard drive with a one-yard run, and SEMO’s two-point attempt failed to leave it with a 27-22 lead with 4:06 remaining in the game. SEMO punched the ensuing kickoff up the middle, allowing the Gamecocks to start their game-winning drive at their own 43-yard line.

OPPONENTS
After a scoreless third quarter, the Gamecocks pushed the lead to 24-7 with 13:40 to play. They put together a masterful 95-yard scoring drive that stretched over 21 plays and 10:34 and was capped by a 12-yard pass from Ivory to Howard. The drive was the longest of the year by the JSU offense in yards and in plays.
ABOUT JSU
The Golden Eagles cut the JSU lead in half on their next drive, a 70-yard possession that took seven plays and was aided by three JSU personal fouls. Crawford capped the drive with a fiveyard touchdown run with 2:41 on the second quarter clock.
COACHES
JSU used its defense to set up the second score of the game. Garrott forced a Barnes fumble and recovered it at the Tech six. Ivory found Freeman on the drive’s first play to give JSU a 14-0 lead with 9:30 to play in the half. Garrott knocked the ball from Barnes’ hands again on the second play of the ensuing drive, but James Esco’s 36-yard field goal attempt missed to the left.

Jacksonville State was hurt by kicking game breakdowns, missing a 37-yard field goal in the first quarter and an extra point after trimming the deficit to 17-14 late in the fourth quarter. The 14 points scored by the Gamecocks was their fewest of the 2010 season. The previous low total came in a 21-17 home victory over Chattanooga on September 11. JSU entered its first postseason game since 2004, and its first at home since ’92, averaging 33.8 points per game. The Gamecocks marched from their 15 to the Wofford 20 on their second possession of the game, but came away empty-handed when James Esco barely missed a 37-yard field goal. Wofford responded by moving 80 yards in only six plays, finished by Breitenstein’s 36-yard run. www.JSUGamecockSports.com

2010 Game Summaries Reed’s extra point made it with 2:55 left in the first quarter. Freshman kicker Griffin Thomas drew JSU to within 7-3 with a 40-yard field goal at the 10:30 mark in the second quarter. Thomas’ kick – the first of his collegiate career – capped an 11-play, 52-yard JSU drive. A 48-yard Breitenstein run moved the Terriers into JSU territory just before halftime. Reed wrapped up the 71-yard drive with his 28-yard kick that sent Wofford to the locker room with a 10-3 halftime edge. Rodney Garrott forced an errant pitchout by Wofford quarterback Mitch Allen that went out the back of the end zone. The safety was the Gamecock’s first this season and narrowed the Terrers’ lead to 10-5 with 9:58 left in the third. Thomas added his second career field goal, a 35-yarder, as Jacksonville State closed the gap to 10-8 early in the fourth. But Wofford immediately regained control, moving 69 yards in 10 plays with Breitenstein finding the end zone on a 3-yard run with 9:14 remaining. JSU’s only touchdown came on Marcus Ivory’s 6-yard touchdown pass to Alan Bonner with just under four minutes left to play. Ivory finished the afternoon by completing 15-of-30 passes for 170 yards. He also was intercepted twice. Morrell Jones had a team-high 13 tackles to lead the Gamecock defense.

Blackie Heath 1946
Blackie Heath was the first football player to grab All-America honors at Jacksonville State under Coach Don Salls, and he set the precedent for many to follow. Known for his blazing speed, Heath played tailback on the 1946 team and led the team in rushing and total offense.

John Williams 1947
Fullback John Williams, a tough 185-pound bulldozer of a runner, ripped his way for 997 yards to set a new standard in modern times for yards gained at Jacksonville State. The mark stood for seven years until another Gamecock All-America came along to clip the mark. During the 1947 campaign, the Gamecocks knocked off nine-straight foes, blanking five, and it was the fine running and leadership of one John Williams who led the way. John went on to become a Lt. Commander in the U.S. Navy.
Jodie Connell 1953
When fans gather at Homecoming or whenever Gamecock football is the subject, the name of Jodie Connell always pops up in the conversation. Jodie, playing with only one arm, mastered everyone who dared line up in front in the 1953 season. He was a first-team Associated Press selection at the guard position.
Al Woodham 1954
Perhaps the fastest halfback to ever carry football at Jacksonville State, Al Woodham erased John Williams’ rushing record of 997 yards with a total of 1,024 yards in 1954. For his efforts, Woodham was chosen for All-American honors and earned the school’s first trip to the Blue-Gray Game in Montgomery, Ala.
Billy Hicks 1955
One of the really outstanding runners in Gamecock football history is All-American Billy Hicks. His finest hour came in the 1955 Refrigerator Bowl in Evansville, Ind., when he helped Jax State whip Rhode Island, 12-10, to give the Gamecocks a 10-1 record. Hicks, a giant of a man (6-2, 245), played a couple of seasons in the Canadian Football League after his career at Jacksonville State.
Jim Glasgow 1957
At 6-5 and 235 pounds, Glasgow was one of the largest, toughest and fastest tackles in the country, and his fine play earned him All-America honors. Glasgow became the second JSU player to play in the BlueGray Game in Montgomery, Ala., joining Al Woodham.
Bill Nichols 1958
Bill Nichols, a fellow who didn’t resemble a football player until he got the ball because of his size, outran everyone during the 1958 season to earn All-America honors. Nichols became just the second player in JSU history to rush for more than 1,000 yards after gaining 1,051 yards in 1958.
Al Carter 1961
Arland “Al” Carter picked up his All-American honor in 1961 after leading JSU to a 6-2-1 record. Carter led the Alabama Collegiate Conference in total offense and was named the most valuable back in the ACC. Carter played tailback in the Gamecocks’ single-wing formation.
166 2011 Gamecocks Football
Ray Vinson 1966
Ray Vinson earned Associated Press All-America honors in 1966 and was one of the most talented players to ever put on a Gamecock uniform. Vinson led Jax State in every offensive department as a freshman and broke records on defense as a senior. He intercepted 13 passes his senior year and, although he wasn’t drafted in the pro draft, he was signed by the San Diego Chargers. The Oxford, Ala., native finished with a total of 15 interceptions at Jacksonville State and his pass interception marks, season and career (16), will probably never be broken.
Terry Harris 1967
Terry Harris, like Ray Vinson, was a versatile player who excelled on both offense and defense, but defense was where he shined the brightest. Harris’ defensive efforts earned him Little All-America recognition from the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). Terry signed with the San Diego Chargers. Terry held the record for most yards pass receiving (career) for more than 30 years and had 13 interceptions in two seasons. It was Harris’ leadership on defense in 1967 that helped Jax State intercept 23 passes in 10 games.
Jimmy Champion 1970
Jimmy Champion, Jacksonville State’s “champion” blocker at center in 1970 when the Gamecocks went 10-0-0 and won the Orange Blossom Classic, will be ranked as one of the all-time great linemen in JSU history. He was the first player to ever make first-team AP and NAIA All-America at Jacksonville State. His blocking helped the Gamecocks score 35 points per game and average close to 400 yards total offense per game. He was a four-year starter at Jacksonville State.
Bruce Nichols 1971
Bruce Nichols was deserving of Little All-America honors in two seasons but made the selection only once, his senior year. He asked not to be considered his junior year so that several outstanding seniors that year could receive more consideration. A four-year starter, Bruce signed with the Dallas Cowboys following the 1971 season. He was also a two-time all-conference pick. His blocking allowed the Gamecocks to average 34 points per game for two years.
Alan Paseur 1972
Alan Paseur’s climb to fame at Jacksonville State University is an example of what hard work and dedication can achieve. Not blessed with outstanding ability and seemingly beset with hard luck, Paseur overcame both on his way to Little All-America honors at JSU. Paseur overcame two serious knee operations and worked to support a family of two on his way to LAA honors. Not bad for a guy who weighed 170 pounds in high school and the person whose services were only wanted by the military recruiter. Paseur was named to the NAIA postseason squad.
Boyce Callahan 1973
Boyce Callahan became Jacksonville State’s second Little All-American to make both the Associated Press and NAIA teams. Jimmy Champion (1970) was the other. Callahan, in his four-year career, broke every rushing and scoring record in JSU history. He gained 4,228 yards and scored 40 touchdowns, totaling 240 points. In addition, he set the season rushing record with 1,293 yards and the single-game mark with 275 yards against Florence State.
Calvin Word 1974 • 1975
Calvin Word became the only Jacksonville State football player to earn Little All-America honors twice when he made NAIA and Associated Press teams in 1974 and 1975. The 215-pound offensive tackle signed with the Dallas Cowboys following graduation. He won most valuable offensive lineman at Jax State and was voted team captain. JSU’s 1974 team won the Gulf South Conference title.
JSU ALL-AMERICANS
Gary Wagner 1976
Judge Stringer 1988
Judge Stringer was a three-year starter at defensive tackle and moved to defensive end his senior season and earned All-American honors in 1988. During his three-year tenure at tackle, Stringer garnered 95 tackles and 116 assists for a total of 211. He also caused three fumbles and tallied 12 sacks. During his junior campaign, Stringer led the team in sacks with 10 and finished with 40 tackles and 53 assists. Was named an All-Gulf South Conference candidate during his senior season.
Jesse Baker
Orlando Adams
Jesse Baker was a two-time All-America at Jacksonville State. The Conyers, Ga., defensive tackle led the Gamecocks to conference titles in 1977 and 1978. As a junior, Baker earned first-team Associated Press honors and was named the top defensive player after the Grantland Rice Bowl. In 1978, he was named to the Kodak All-America team after setting a school record with seven fumble recoveries. He also had 51 tackles, 20 assists and nine sacks for 65 yards in losses. He was inducted into the Jacksonville State University Hall of Fame in 1995. Baker was selected by the Houston Oilers in the second round of the 1978 NFL draft and led the league in sacks as a rookie.
Orlando Adams made an impact on a national scale in 1989, when he earned All-America honors after collecting a team-high 102 tackles and guiding the Gamecocks to their second consecutive Gulf South Conference title. The defensive lineman recorded five sacks and 11 tackles for a loss in guiding a defense that led the GSC in passing defense and scoring defense. After a stellar career at JSU, Adams continued his football career at the pro level when he signed with the Philadelphia Eagles.
1977 • 1978
1991
John Sanders helped the Gamecocks to the 1991 Gulf South Conference Title and into the NCAA Division II National Championship game after earning All-American honors. Jax State posted an 12-1 record and a perfect record in the Gulf South Conference. He was a first-team All-GSC performer at defensive tackle as the Gamecocks led the GSC in total defense (267.7 yards per game) and scoring defense, allowing just 8.7 points per game.

Ed Lett
Wendell Kelley
Ed Lett garnered All-America honors in both his junior and senior seasons after guiding the Gamecocks to back-to-back Gulf South Conference titles in 1981 and 1982. In both those seasons, the quarterback was named the GSC’s Offensive Player of the Year after guiding an offense that led the GSC in rushing, total offense and scoring. His 22 touchdown passes in 1982 still stands as the school record and helped him earn “Alabama Amateur Athlete of the Year” honors. He is Jax State’s career leader in pass attempts, completions, yards, touchdowns, completion percentage and passing yards per game.
Wendell Kelley was named an All-American in 1992. A native of Oxford, Ala., Kelley was the fifth leading tackler in ’91 with 96, including 49 solos and second in sacks with five, plus a pair of pass breakups, two recovered fumbles and four forced fumbles.
Greg Lowery
Ja’Karl Barnett was a two-time All-American in 1992 and 1993. In 1993, Barnett started in 10 games for the Gamecocks, recording three interceptions for a total of 39 yards and returned one for a touchdown. In ’92, Barnett led the team in tackles with 152, including six for a loss. Barnett also tabbed seven pass breakups and a pair of interceptions. Barnett finished his JSU career with six interceptions for 81 yards and one touchdown.

The ACC No, it’s not the Atlantic Coast Conference. At least not for this reference. It was the Alabama Collegiate Conference, which the Gamecocks competed in during the 1960’s. The four state supported colleges - Jacksonville State, Troy State, Florence State (now UNA), and Livingston (now West Alabama) - formed the ACC in 1960. The Gamecocks shared the conference football crown with Florence State in 1962 and 1963 and then won the next three football championships in 1964, 1965 and1966. The Gamecocks produced numerous All-ACC players throughout the 1960’s, but those records are incomplete. In 1969, JSU placed Bubba Long (RB) and Gary Godfrey (LB) on the All-Conference squad.
Academic Accolades Josh Cain, who was a walk-on player as a freshman and was an All-OVC performer by his senior season in 2009, became the most decorated academic performer in Gamecock football history. The Wetumpka, Ala., native became the first player in JSU history and OVC history to earn the Football Championship Subdivision Athletic Directors Scholar-Athlete of the Year $5,000 graduate scholarship. The defensive back also became just the second player in JSU history to earn ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American first-team honors and only the 16th in OVC history. Cain was also named the 2009 OVC Scholar-Athlete, to the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team, Georgia Peach of an Athlete and the 2009 JSU Eagle-Owl Award Winner.
All-Americans The Gamecocks have had a total of 49 players selected All-America since the modern day records begin in 1946. The school’s first AllAmerica was halfback Blackie Heath in 1946 and the next year, John Williams earned the honor. Offensive tackle Calvin Word was the first JSU player to be named All-American twice (1974 and 1975). Butch Barker and Jesse Baker each earned the honor in 1977 and 1978, while Ed Lett (QB) was a repeat All-American in 1981 and 1982. Offensive lineman Joe Billingsley was named to the squad in 1986 and 1988 and Danny Lee (Return Specialist) repeated in 1991 and 1992. Linebacker Ja’Karl Barnett was a selection in 1992 and 1993. JSU’s first AllAmerica at the Division I level was defensive back Darron Edwards in 1995 and Eric Mims in 1996. The Gamecocks placed three members on the 1998 All-America team when Mark Word (DE), Montressa Kirby (QB) and Eurosius Parker (Return Specialist) each earned the honor. Delvin Hughley (DB) was named to the 2000 All-American squad. In 2001, senior offensive lineman Jeremy Sullivan was named second team and freshman punter Richie Rhodes earned third-team honors. Rhodes

was named second-team All-American in 2002 and third-team in 2003. During JSU’s second OVC Championship, John Pettus and Oscar Bonds both earned second-team All-American honors, while Craig Agee was a third-team All-American after leading the nation in punt returns as a sophomore. In 2005, senior offensive lineman Rod Olds earned third-team honors, while junior runningback Clay Green also earned third-team All-America accolades. In 2007, junior kicker Gavin Hallford was named third-team All-America by The Associated Press, while Carnell Clark earned Associated Press All-America honors in 2008. Jax State had three players named All-America in 2009, including T.J. Heath (DB), Tylor Chambers (OL) and OVC Player of Year Ryan Perrilloux (QB). Senior Curt Porter (OL) earned All-America honors in 2010 as JSU went 9-3 and into the second round of the NCAA playoffs.
to the Paper Bowl and defeated Livingston (now West Alabama), 12-7 in 1949. Jax State suffered its first loss in a bowl game after losing 7-6 to the Pensacola Cards Navy team in 1950. JSU whipped Rhode Island, 12-10, in the Refrigerator Bowl in Evansville, Ind., in 1955. In 1966, the Gamecocks defeated Arkansas A&M, 41-30, in the 1966 Space City Classic. JSU’s 21-7 victory over Florida A&M in the 1970 Orange Blossom Classic in Miami’s Orange Bowl, is one of the top victories in Gamecock history. JSU defeated North Dakota State , 31-7, in front of more than10,000 and an ABC-TV regional television audience in the Grantland Rice Bowl to advance to the NCAA Division II National Championship in 1977. The following week, the Gamecocks suffered just their second bowl loss after Lehigh claimed a 33-0 win over JSU in the Gamecocks’ first ever nationally televised football game in the Pioneer Bowl.
All-Star Games
Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium
Nine different Gamecock football players have participated in post-season all-star games. Halfback Al Woodham was the first JSU player to play in the Blue-Gray Classic in 1955. Four years later, Jim Glasgow (OT) played in the Classic, which is held in the City of Montgomery on Christmas Day each year. JSU’s first player to participate in the Blue-Gray Classic since moving to Division I in 1993 was defensive end Mark Word in 1998. JSU has had three players to play in the Senior Bowl, with record setting quarterback Dieter Brock playing in 1974. Defensive lineman Jesse Baker was selected to play in 1979 and runningback Sean Richardson played in 1994. Baker also played in the EastWest Shine game in 1979. Delvin Hughley (DB) participated in the 2000 Blue-Gray game in Montgomery. Quarterback Ryan Perrilloux was the first Gamecock selected to play in the Texas versus the Nation All-Star game following the 2009 season. Curt Porter also played in the Texas versus the Nation All-Star game in 2010.
Battle for ‘Ole School Bell At every level of play in football, there are historic rivalry games between teams. There is that certain game circled on every fans calendar and for Gamecock fans, it’s the Troy State game. The rivalry dates back to 1924 and the two teams have met a total of 62 times, with Jax State holding a 33-28-2 lead in the series. JSU owns the longest win streak in the series, winning 13-straight in the series from 1954-66.
Bowl Games The Gamecocks have played in eight bowl games, dating back to the 1948 season. JSU has an all-time record of 6-2 in bowl games. Jax State first played in the 1948 Paper Bowl and defeated Troy State, 19-0. JSU returned
Since Paul Snow Stadium opened in 1946, Jacksonville State has posted an incredible 245-95-8 record at home. Under Crowe, the Gamecocks are 45-18 all-time at home. The stadium just completed a $47 million expansion and is one of the top facilities in the country. The new facility consists of seven stories, with the bottom four floors dedicated to nearly 400 dorm beds. The top three floors include 33 luxury skyboxes, a new press area, coaches booths, radio and television broadcast facilities, and a game management booth. The stadium included additional seats that push the capacity of Paul Snow Stadium to 24,000. The stadium underwent renovations in 1976 with the addition of the east end zone and south sideline seats. The fieldhouse also also constructed at the west end zone to enclose the stadium and then in the summer of 2005, the natural playing surface was replaced with Pro-Grass synthetic surface. Improvements in 2007 included two new scoreboards and the addition of “Gamecock Vision” a new video replay scoreboard. It is located in the east endzone and features a 14’ x 24’ ProStar VideoPlus Display that is one of the largest in the OVC. The video replay system utilizes the V-Link 4000 Video Processor and the Venus 7000 Controler. On the Gamecock Field House, a new scoreboard was installed as Paul Snow Stadium becomes the only school in the OVC with two scoreboards. Jacksonville State’s first win in renovated Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium came the hard way, in 2010, but it is one Gamecock fans remember well. After a lightning delay that pushed kickoff back 86 minutes, the 22,186 in attendance saw the fifth-ranked Jacksonville
GLOSSARY State football team score 21 unanswered points to pull of its second fourth-quarter come-from-behind win, a 21-17 thriller over Chattanooga. One week after the second-largest crowd to ever watch JSU play saw the Gamecocks rally for a double-overtime win over Ole Miss, the largest home crowd in Gamecock history saw junior Marques Ivory find junior James Shaw for a 72-yard touchdown strike with 1:16 remaining and hand the Mocs (0-2) their second heartbreaking loss in as many weeks.

REVIEW
Jacksonville State has been the recipient of four Chevrolet scholarships Awards. Two came in 1977 during JSU appearance in the Grantland Rice Bowl, regionally televised by ABC. The game, held in Anniston, Ala., was won by the Gamecocks 31-7 over North Dakota State. The win sent Jacksonville State to its first-ever appearance in the Division II National Championship Game. Jesse Baker and Bobby Ray Green were named Chevrolet Players-of-the-Game. Baker earned the honor on defense and Green was named for the offensive Player-of-the-Game. JSU’s Joe Hartsfield earned the honor in JSU’s 24-14 win Jesse Baker
If there was ever a dominating team in the Gulf South Conference, Jacksonville State would lay claim to it. The GSC was born in the summer of 1970 when representative from six institutions -- Delta State, Florence State (now UNA), Livingston (now West Alabama), Tennessee-Martin, Troy State and Jacksonville State -- convened in Birmingham to form the MidSouth Conference, the forerunner to the GSC. Scheduling problems in the first year permitted competition only in football, with JSU winning the league’s first championship in 1971. Southeastern Louisiana and Nicholls State joined the conference, bringing the membership to eight and the league also changed its name to the Gulf South Conference.

One of the single most memorable plays in JSU football history came on November 11, 1996, JSU was facing Western Illinois in front of a Homecoming crowd. The Gamecocks had just :03 seconds left in the game trailing 27-26 and had the ball on the Western Illinois 42-yard line. Freshman quarterback JeDarius Issac took the snap and lobbed a “hail mary” pass on the game’s final play that somehow ended up in the hands of wide receiver Patrick Plott in the end zone as the Gamecocks grabbed victory from the jaws of defeat. JSU seemingly had the game well in hand, leading 26-13 with 10:09 to play, but the Leathernecks came storming back. A touchdown run with 4:46 remaining in the game cut the lead to 26-20, and with just 50 seconds showing on the clock, a 22-yard fourth-down scoring pass and the ensuing extra point had given WIU a 27-26 lead. But Issac calmly directed the Gamecocks 71 yards in 50 seconds, capping it off with the 42-yard pass to Plott for the game-winner.
Coach Mayfield, 35, died in a tragic fire accident in Southgate, Ky., on May 28, 1977.

Playing football with just one arm didn’t slow down this Gamecock All-American. Jodie Connell was a four-year starter for the Gamecocks from 1950-52. As a ten-year old boy, Connell suffered an accident on a tire swing which resulted in his left arm being amputated just below the elbow. Connell played baseball and ran track at Gadsden High School, but it was his accomplishments on the gridiron that are best remembered. A two-time All-State selection, Connell came to JSU in 1950 and played both football and baseball. Jodie Connell As a freshman, Connell beat out five returning lettermen for a starting position at guard, a spot that he held all four years at JSU. Connell, who rushed for several touchdowns on a guard-around play, was a threat to drop back and pass, and even on one occasion snagged an interception. His senior year, he was named co-captain of the team and earned All-America honors. He went on to play for the St. Louis Knights for three years, and made the All-League team as an offensive guard. He also played defensive end. He was inducted into the JSU Athletic Hall of Fame in 1984, the Etowah County Sports Hall of Fame in 1995 and the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame in 1996.

Statistical Champions
This famous slogan is heard around the Jax State campus all year, especially during the Troy State game week. The phrase is credited to former JSU head football coach Charley Pell. The Gamecocks lost the 1969 game 37-6 to the Trojans and following the game, Coach Pell told his players in the dressing room that next season, the Gamecocks would “Whup Troy”. The following year, the Gamecocks did just that, taking the Trojans to the woodshed with a 55-10 JSU win enroute to a perfect 10-0 record and a victory in the Orange Blossom Classic.

The Gamecocks, led by the running and passing of Terry Hodges and the pass receiving of John Meadows, whipped Livingston, 12-7.

But Jacksonville State’s Eric King stepped in front of Pitt State Quarterback Ron Hutchins pass in the end zone, swatted it to the ground to preserve a 17-13 Gamecocks victory before 11,733 fans. The name Jacksonville State will now forever be inscribed as the 1992 Division II National Champion. It’s Jacksonville State’s first title in football, soothing the anguish of the three previous futile visits to the championship game. Next season Pittsburg State, the 1991 champion from Kansas can return, but Jacksonville can not defend. The Gamecocks enter a compliance period on the way to reclassification to Division I-AA. “If its all right with you,” said JacksonvilleState Coach Bill Burgess, “I’m not going to talk about moving up right now. I could care less.” Jacksonville State had spotted the Gorillas a touchdown lead on the opening kickoff off Harlon Hill Trophy winner Ronald Moore raced virtually untouched 99 yards to score. “Our staff had decided not to kick to him,” Burgess said, “but to show how smart I am. I changed my mind just before kickoff.” But that was Moore’s moment of glory. After that he butted heads with Jacksonville’s defense, and was frustrated at every turn. His longest gain was just 12 yards, and he didn’t score a rushing touchdown. The Gorillas‚ other came on a 38-yard Hutchin to Ray Staten pass that gave Pitt a 13-3 lead with 9:14 left in the second quarter.
The Jacksonville State defense wasn’t to be scored on again, however, and the offense did just enough to win. “Our win was a combination of things,” Burgess said. “Our offense made first downs and ran time of the clock to keep their offense off the field. And our defense made the big Plays.” At the end, Jacksonville State had posted 24 first downs, 23 of them rushing and 1 of them on a penalty. Three Jacksonville players, two of them fullbacks, had more yards than Pittsburg’s Moore. Sean Richardson had 106 yards on 23 tries and Terence Bowens had 92 on 20. Quarterback Chuck Robinson added 110 yards on 15 carries and Jacksonville’s offense had 390 yards on the ground to just 156 for Pitt as a team. Jacksonville’s Robinson only threw the ball four times and completed two for 5 yards. His last pass was an interception just before halftime. “Their ability to run the ball inside was the key,” said Pittsburg coach Chuck Broyels, “They just kept the ball away from our offense.” Moore never broke stride on the opening kickoff, and 13 seconds after the game started, Pitt led 6-0. The Gorillas decided to go for two, and that was crucial down the stretch. They missed, soon their final drive, they needed a touchdown, for a field goal wouldn’t good enough for a tie. “We have the option of going for two if we outnumbered them on one side.” Broyels, said, “We haven’t done it since 1985, but
NCAA DIVISION II NATIONALS CHAMPIONS it is the quarterback’s call.” This time the JSU defense dragged Moore down short and the comeback started. “Our players never slowed down,” Burgess said, “never gave up.”
Nine plays and 3 first downs later it was fourth down at the Jacksonville 22 with 29 seconds left Shad Klinge went into the end zone, and Jacksonville’s King went with him. “I was lucky to get to it,” King said, “I saw him (Klinge) look up for the ball, and I looked up. The quarterback kind of floated it, and I was able to get a hand on it and knock it down.”

It was Jacksonville State the rest of the way, heroes divided equally between offense and defense. The Gamecocks went on a 15 play, 78-yard drive the consumed 6:51on the clock and ended just 2:23 from halftime with Danny Lee rush-

Gosh Almighty! by Doug Segrest, The Birmingham News OXFORD, Miss. -- As Jacksonville State’s players boogied with the marching band, and Ole Miss fans filed out of Vaught-Hem mingway Stadium in stunned silence, only one person understood both emotions. Tears began welling in Jack Crowe’s eyes. A flood followed in the locker room. He felt the joy immediately. But the Jacksonville State coach also understood the agony of losing a game that can shake the faithful to the foundation. Jacksonville State’s 49-48, double-time victory against Ole Miss on Saturday is probably the program’s biggest since moving to Division I-AA in 1995. That was three years after Crowe learned how low a coach could go. As head man at Arkansas, he lost the 1992 season opener to I-AA The Citadel. By the start of the new week, Crowe was out of a job. “I’m not sure this feels as good,” Crowe said after Saturday’s upset, “as that felt bad.” Jacksonville State erased a 31-10 deficit in the second half, turning a blowout into a win for the ages before a crowd of 55,768 fans. While all the pregame attention was focused on Oregon transfer Jeremiah Masoli’s debut at Ole Miss, the game was won on the arm of a lesser known quarterback playing for Jacksonville State. Ever heard of Coty Blanchard? He came from Cherokee County High, where he was the state’s Mr. Football a year ago. The true freshman entered in the third series, stuck around a good bit after that, and delivered both a fourth-down, 30-yard touchdown pass in the second overtime and the game-winning two-point conversion toss to Calvin Middleton. The latter was a last-second ad-lib on what was supposed to be a shovel pass. With the NCAA affirming Ole Miss’ lastminute appeal to gain Masoli’s eligibility, the Rebels dominated the first half, taking a 31-10 lead.
208 2011 Gamecocks Football
Both Masoli and starter Nathan Stanley were effective. But the biggest difference was a defensive front that seemed to manhandle Jax State’s patchwork offensive line. Crowe challenged his team to play better, or to report for a full-pads workout at the very next practice. To be honest, Crowe admitted later, he was just trying to get a read on his team. “We hadn’t been a team all fall. We hadn’t looked like a team at a single practice.” Yet it came together in the second half. Ole Miss was trying to add to a 31-13 lead near the end of the third quarter when Masoli overthrew a receiver. JSU’s Keginald Harris pulled in the interception and re turned it 24 yards. Blanchard returned with the first-team offense and drove the Gamecocks 59 yards in eight plays, cutting the lead to 11 points. When Ole Miss tried to deliver another knockout haymaker on the ensuing drive, JSU delivered a stop again on a fourth-and-6 from the Gamecocks’ 33-yard line. This time Blanchard directed a 67-yard drive, cutting the margin to 31-26. Starting quarterback Marques Ivory returned to lead the game-tying drive, hitting Alan Bonner on a 19-yard scoring pass with 18 seconds left and a strike to La’Ray Williams for the 2-point conversion. He also directed the first score in overtime. The rotating quarterbacks matched passing yards (126) and touchdowns (2), although Blanchard at tempted 10 fewer passes. Ivory will remain the starter for Jacksonville State’s home opener next week against Chattanooga. Blanchard will again go in on the third series. And after that? “Like I tell them all the time: What you do determines what I do,” Crowe said. Needless to say, the Ole Miss
loss sent shockwaves through the stands, on Internet message boards and proved just as palpable in the locker room. “This would have to be one of my toughest losses,” said Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt, a Crowe assistant at Arkansas. “You do not want to get started off like this.” Crowe remembers how close Jacksonville State came to beating Florida State a year ago. More important, he’s never forgotten what The Citadel upset meant to his own career. And what it could mean to Nutt down the road. “I don’t think these cir cumstances could be re peated in 100 years,” Crowe said. “I thought the same thing after The Citadel.”
