Head Coach Jack Crowe’s Position-by-Position Outlook
24
QUARTERBACKS
TIGHT ENDS
“I know it sounds non-traditional, but we have two starting quarterbacks and that’s because they have both started and have been successful. I think it’s a position that is going to have its challenges in just how we manage the situation. It will be a position that is capable of making any and every play that a quarterback could make. Both Marques (Ivory) and Coty (Blanchard) are proven playmakers in the biggest kind of games. I think they are very complementary and I think both of them would readily recognize how they compliment each other. Marques has the most experience and I think is certainly the starting quarterback, but in every game we are going to have a game plan for two quarterbacks and manage it in whatever way we have to manage it to win the game. It’s a very blessed situation and we are very fortunate to have two outstanding playmakers like Marques Ivory and Marques Ivory Coty Blanchard.”
“It’s a position that is in transition for us right now. We have had really good players at that spot and we graduate one every year and the next guy in line is left to replace a special player. Denzel Cheeks is the tight end that is the senior and has previously played for three years and gradually became the starter. He posseses what you want to possess, the ability to block and to be a pass receiver because, with his with his size and height, he can be dominant. We have a transfer in Gavin Ellis, who is transitioning from wide receiver. I was extremely impressed with him in the spring and he comes from a family of Jacksonville State people and he brings it every day. He will get better every day he goes out there. We have a transfer, Luke Smith, from the Naval Academy Denzel Cheeks at that position who is a ‘line of scrimmage’ player. He also has the ability to catch the football and stretch the field. We’ll be looking at that position to move a player from another position. It’s a position that we will have to develop as the year goes on.”
RUNNING BACKS
“Washaun Ealey certainly defines where we start out on offense and I think he proved last year, that when he is healthy and got in to the system, that he was everything that was expected of him. Washaun can run over and around people and can make you miss. He has a total skill set for blocking, pass receiving and we have never had one better or as good. The next player in the backfield is DaMarcus James and we will be using an ‘A Back’, ‘B-Back’ situation and he will take on the role that Calvin Washaun Ealey Middleton had last year. He is the second running back in the backfield and will take on more of a blocking role when it is required in a two-back set. He will play tailback and is capable of being a 30 carries-a-game ball carrier. He is a fine compliment to Washaun Ealey. We have a role player, who would be defined as a fullback in Jerry Slota. He provides a versatility to play on or along the line of scrimmage. He provides pass catching ability, blocking ability and is capable of being a runner himself. What comes next to me is the most interesting part about the season, the evolution of three outstanding freshmen who bring something to the table and may even make an impact with the quality that we have at that position. Myles Jones was a heralded and award-winning high school player. He has speed and runs with authority. Troymaine Pope, from Anniston, Ala., is going to be a surprise to a lot of people because of his talent there. He was one of the top rushers in the state of Alabama last year and that was no accident. We also have LeDarius Rodgers, from Leeds, Ala., who carried the ball over 2,000 yards on championship football teams. The three of them are the future. I think its is a position that going forward is the best that we’ve ever had at Jacksonville State.”
OFFENSIVE LINE
“The offensive line has two rising seniors that have really separated themselves with all the young faces that show potential in that group. Odie Rush and Tori Mobley are what you hope to have on a line. Tori moved from tackle to guard and Odie is coming back from a major break in his ankle. One is a left tackle and one is a right guard – they could be the keys to what we are on offense. If they can accept the responsibility of leading the younger players to a higher level of performance, then I think that could be a good group.” WIDE RECEIVERS
Odie Rush
“Wide receiver is a position that is going to define our scoring ability. I think we will be credible in the running game, but the true ability for us to score points is this group of players to make plays, not just run routes and catch the ball, but make plays. Alan Bonner is the senior of the group and defines that. He has set some records as a punt returner and has had his hands on a lot of balls and made a lot of plays since he has been here. It is his time now to step out and be special. Along with him are two Alan Bonner

Head Coach Jack Crowe’s Position-by-Position Outlook schemes last year. We saw good play out of senior Brooks Robinson, while junior Robert Gray and freshman Pierre Warren also played a lot of snaps last year. Freshman Brandon Bender could see action as well in the defensive backfield. We moved Keginald Harris to a lot of different places when we made the transition in schemes and I am hoping Keginald’s role will be more certain for him. He is a leader and we need to find the right place for him to exert his impact on this football team.”
DEFENSIVE LINE
Cornerbacks
“Defensive line might be the most uncertain place on our football team because we lost three of the four starters and only DiMetrio Tyson returns from that four-man front. He can play his position and he can play all four spots. What we are looking for is who are the other three are going to be. Barry Stafford, who is a walk-on and has been productive, will be in the mix on the line. We have Caleb Lawrence, who is a freshman, and Martez House, another freshman DiMetrio Tyson that could step in and play. Erick Butler and Jordan Jackson are also newcomers that could see some playing time. This is just an area that we are going to be developing as the season starts. Outside of the returning players, we have a bunch of names that can be said throughout the season. I am optimistic about the caliber of young players that are there and define the future of this position with the youth that we brought in instead of re-tooling with older players. We have invested in the development of these young players.”
“We have a walk-on going into his senior year with Francis Duncan and then the cast of 19-year-olds. They are all good players, including Rashod Byers and Denzel Bynum. I think at this position, we have brought in some high school players that can make an impact this season. Jermaine Hough and Dushonta Broughton are two guys from the Atlanta area that we feel like that can make an impact.”

REVIEW RECORDS HISTORY OVC
“It’s the toughest in the history of Jacksonville State and probably the toughest in the history of the Ohio Valley Conference. You can play two FBS teams, but you can also play two top-five teams in the country in the same season. Arkansas is probably a top-five team and Florida is expected to rise back to its status of being one of the top teams in the country. We are going to be challenged by both of them, and then you throw in Chattanooga, who had one of the best defenses in the country last year. The OVC will be strong again this year. The thing about the OVC this year that defines the competition is that everybody has their quarterback returning and they are all established, credible quarterbacks. It really makes it a challenge as far as the conference is concerned – who’s defense is going to be strong enough to stop the other team’s quarterback?”

ABOUT JSU
“We are going to start with Coty (Blanchard) at punter, but we are trying to develop a new talent that is joining us from Australia. We have to get used to saying some things about Hamish (MacInnes), because he has never played football before. He is an Australian rules kicker that we will be developing into a punter. Our kicking duties will fall to someone that I am very optimistic about in Griffin Thomas. He has been playing for us for a couple of years and I think he is ready to be the kicker we need to win tight football Coty Blanchard games. He came as a walk-on and earned everything he has.”

GAMECOCKS
“It’s a position that is just as young as the guys up front. We have competition at every position and I don’t think there is an established player in the bunch. We do have some people that have earned what they have gotten. Ben Endress is a walk-on, Brent Tolson is a player that has earned his way into having a chance to play. Jamaal Johnson was a freshman that was moved to that position. James Powell is coming back from an injury, and Mikel Whittier is another walk-on that could see some time at one Rashad Smith of the linebacker spots. The only real experience that is there is Nick Johnson, who is a senior and moved from safety and is battling to learn a new way of playing football. The one anchor at that position is Rashad Smith, who led us in tackles last year. He is capable of being a defining player on defense as he enters his junior year.”

With those guys, we have a cast of freshmen and sophomores. Freshmen Markis Merrill, Telvin Brown and Josh Barge are capable of making an impact in their first year. They were highly-recruited players that we were very fortunate to get in our program.”

2012 Gamecocks Football
MEET HEAD COACH JACK CROWE
There have been many successful coaches in the 65-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 76.1 percent winning percentage in conference games is tops among all active coaches in the league. He has guided the Gamecocks to three Ohio Valley Conference Championships with a nine-year mark of 54-17, while posting the best record in the OVC in 2003, 2004, 2009 and 2011. Crowe, who begins his 13th season leading Jax State, has guided the Gamecocks to nine consecutive winning seasons, which ties for the longest such streak in the school’s 109-year history. The 2011 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 32-13, which is the most wins of any other four-year class since JSU moved to Division I.
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.

RECORDS

Jack Crowe
The 2011 Gamecocks won the school’s 18th conference championship in school history after finishing with a 7-4 record, including a 6-2 record in the OVC, sharing the title with Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee Tech. A native of Birmingham, Crowe has coached over 37 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 FloridaCitrus, 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 21-1-1 record and two conference titles. Crowe is married to the former LeAnn Gaines of Anniston.
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, 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.

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. The football playing facility has been called Paul Snow Stadium since the 1961 season, but will now also honor former coach Bill Burgess, who led the Gamecocks to the 1992 NCAA Division II National Championship.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.

From modest beginnings, Jacksonville State University has evolved into the educational center of Northeast Alabama. The Alabama Legislature in the 1882-83 session created a state normal school when Governor Edward O’Neal signed into law a bill creating the school on February 22, 1883. Jacksonville State Normal School acquired the facilities and equipment of Calhoun College, consisting of 12 acres of land and a two-story brick building. The Board of Directors elected James G. 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.

It was, however, every bit as dramatic. Senior Calvin Middleton scored on a 4-yard touchdown run with 38 seconds left and James Esco kicked the go-ahead extra point as the Gamecocks rallied from a 13-point fourth-quarter deficit to knock off Ohio Valley Conference rival Tennessee-Martin 24-23 at Burgess-Snow Field Thursday night. “It was left at the end to just make plays,” Jacksonville State head coach Jack Crowe said. ““The only thing you can really say came out of that is we played with a lot of heart. We lost our poise, but we never lost our composure. “I really thought at the end … it was just a bunch of guys who refused to lose. Because we certainly did everything to lose.” Jacksonville State (1-0), the preseason OVC favorite, appeared on the verge of suffering its first home loss to UT-Martin in 24 years. The Skyhawks (0-1) had taken a 23-10 lead with 14:11 remaining when Cody Sandlin kicked a 45-yard field goal to give UT-Martin its biggest lead of the night. But Gabriel Chambers returned the ensuing kickoff 38 yards to midfield and the Gamecocks didn’t wasting any time finding the end zone. After a 7-yard Washaun Ealey run, backup quarterback Coty Blanchard and the junior transfer from Georgia hooked up on a 43-yard scoring pass with 13:06 to go. Esco’s extra point trimmed JSU’s deficit to 23-17. The Gamecocks defense, which surrendered 475 yards, rose to the occasion on UT-Martin’s next two possessions. The final scoring drive began at the 50 and JSU covered the distance in 3:53, with Blanchard running for 20 and 8 yards on consecutive plays to move the team deep into Skyhawks territory. Middleton capped off the nine-play drive with his 4-yard run, setting off a celebration from the crowd of 17,919. But the high-powered UT-Martin offense wasn’t finished. Starting at their own 15 with 34 seconds left, the Skyhawks moved to the JSU 42 in five plays. Facing a second-and-10 with six seconds remaining, quarterback Derek Carr hooked up with Stephen Shiver on a 27-yard completion, but Shiver was forced out of bounds at the JSU 15 as time expired. “I was proud that some of the things got better as we played on,” Crowe said. “Not all of them did. “What does this say about the future? It says we’ve got a lot to get done. It doesn’t say that we can’t accomplish anything, it just says we’re a LONG way away from it.” That future isn’t likely to include starting quarterback Marques Ivory. The senior from Warner Robins, Ga., sustained a fractured right fibula during the first half and is scheduled to undergo surgery on Friday. Blanchard, the hero of last year’s win at Ole Miss, completed 9-of-17 passes for a JSU careerhigh 133 yards and one touchdown. He also ran nine times for 32 yards. Jacksonville State trailed 17-7 at halftime after surrendering 285 total yards. The Gamecocks’ only first-half points came on Ivory’s 22-yard pass to tight end Justin Howard with 9:54 left in the second quarter. Esco’s field goal early in the third quarter drew Jacksonville State to within 17-10. But the visitors got field goals of 25 and 45 yards from Sandlin to stretch their lead to 23-10 early in the fourth.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – This time, unlike the season-opening victory over Tennessee-Martin, Jacksonville State dug itself too deep of a hole to climb out of.
Ealey ran for 41 yards on 13 carries in his Gamecock debut, while Middleton finished with 28 yards on 10 attempts.
The No. 10 Gamecocks (1-1) surrendered 508 yards of total offense and fell to No. 23 Chattanooga 38-17 before a crowd of 12,195 at Finley Stadium, snapping their four-game win streak in a series that dates back to 1904.

Chattanooga led 23-17 at intermission as the teams combined to roll up 536 total yards. The Mocs (1-1) struck first, traveling 43 yards in four plays on their second possession. Chris Awuah ran 15 yards for a touchdown and Nick Pollard added the extra point to give Chattanooga a 7-0 lead with 7:25 left in the first quarter. But Jacksonville State wasted little time in responding.
Washaun Ealey capped the drive with a 4-yard run – his first rushing touchdown in a Gamecock uniform – and James Esco’s extra point made it 7-7 at the 4:28 mark.
Middleton’s TD was his eighth in his last eight games.
Chattanooga’s Coleman hit Joel Bradford on a 47-yard touchdown pass moments later, giving the Mocs a lead it wouldn’t relinquish. Jacksonville State’s Monte Lewis blocked the extra point attempt, making it 23-17 Chattanooga with 3:01 left in the second quarter.
Wes Dothard’s 30-yard interception return for a touchdown made it 38-17 and ended Jacksonville State’s hopes of comeback.

Eastern Illinois fell to 1-3 and 0-2 in OVC play. Jacksonville State pounded out a season-high 294 yards on the ground, led by junior Washaun Ealey’s career-best 155 yards. Senior Calvin Middleton finished with 96 yards and scored both of JSU’s second-half touchdowns on 1-yard runs. “I thought the offensive line came out very physical tonight,” Ealey said. “It was something that we needed in the running game. “They came out and basically did what the coaches asked them to do all week. I feel like if we run straight at anybody, I don’t think anybody can stop us. The offensive line is young but they’re playing great ball right now, and hopefully we’ll keep that up.” “They’re weapons when the offensive line blocks like it did tonight,” Blanchard said. “We definitely established the run. We threw in some passes here and there to keep them guessing on the defensive side.” Jacksonville State head coach Jack Crowe is now 7-0 in games in which the Gamecocks were tied at halftime. Blanchard’s 10-yard touchdown pass to Trey Smith with 1:22 left in the second quarter pulled JSU into a 14-14 deadlock heading to intermission. Smith’s score was his first touchdown as a Gamecock. The Gamecocks scored on their first drive for the second straight week, taking the opening kickoff and covering 70 yards in 10 plays. Ealey’s 16-yard burst moved JSU deep into EIU territory. Blanchard finished off the drive with a scoring pass to Howard, the senior tight end’s second TD of the season. The first of James Esco’s four extra points made it 7-0 with 10:09 left in the first quarter. Eastern responded with an 80-yard, 10-play drive capped by quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo’s 18-yard TD pass to Chris Wright at the 4:53 mark of the first quarter. JSU backup quarterback Thomas Darrah’s fumble gave EIU the ball at its 41 early in the second quarter. The Panthers drove to the JSU 10 in 12 plays, but came away empty-handed when kicker Cameron Berra missed a 27-yard field goal attempt. Another fumble - this one by James Shaw - and a personal foul penalty gave Eastern Illinois possession at the JSU 13 moments later. The Panthers needed only two plays to score, with Jake Walker running in from the 2 with 4:26 left in the first half. Jacksonville State regained the lead late in the third quarter on Middleton’s first 1-yard touchdown run. His second touchdown run, with 12:22 left in the game, marked the Acworth, Ga., native’s fourth career two-touchdown game.

MURRAY, Ky. – Another uniform variation, another Jacksonville State victory.
JSU spotted the Racers an early 10-point lead before rallying to claim a heart-pounding 38-30 Ohio Valley Conference victory before crowd of 3,838 at Roy Stewart Stadium, extending the Gamecocks’ win streak over Murray State to eight. Murray State, which was picked second behind JSU in the OVC preseason poll, fell to 2-3 and 1-2.
Murray State recovered the ensuing onside kick and drove to the JSU 45 in the waning seconds. But the Racers were penalized for a false start on fourth down, which by NCAA rule ended the game. The Gamecocks rolled up a season-high 486 yards, including 329 on the ground. It was the third straight game – all victories –the Jacksonville State offense had eclipsed the 400-yard mark. Junior Washaun Ealey ran 28 times, his most this season, for 143 yards and two touchdowns. Blanchard added 79 yards and Calvin Middleton had 66. Murray State was limited to 11 yards on 26 running plays, but finished with 421 yards through the air. It was the fewest rushing yards Jax State has allowed an OVC opponent since joining the league in 2003.

October 15, 2011 Governors Stadium – Clarksville, Tenn.
Then the floodgates opened and Austin Peay couldn’t keep the Gamecocks out.
The Gamecocks improved to 5-1 overall and 4-0 in conference play with their fourth straight victory.
No. 10 Jacksonville State scored 28 points in a 10-minute span in the second quarter – its most in a quarter in seven years – and crushed Austin Peay 44-14 before a crowd of 5,186 at Governors Stadium.
It was JSU’s fifth consecutive win over Austin Peay since the Govs rejoined the OVC in 2007 and has outscored the Govs 205-58 in those five meetings. Jacksonville State gave its next opponent, Southeastern Conference member Kentucky, plenty to study on film ahead of next Saturday’s game in Lexington, Ky. The Gamecocks’ opportunistic defense forced six turnovers and returned two interceptions for touchdowns – the first time that’s happened in a game since 2009. Brooks Robinson also returned a fumble 32 yards for a Jacksonville State score. Pierre Warren had an apparent interception return for a TD, but the play was blown dead by an official’s inadvertent whistle. Two freshmen reserves, linebacker Ben Endress of Ashland and defensive back Jamaal Johnson of Piedmont, added to Govs’ quarterback Jake Ryan’s misery in the fourth quarter. Endress scored on a 10-yard interception return with 3:37 left. Johnson duplicated the feat just over a minute later, picking off Ryan and racing 45 yards to the end zone for the Gamecocks’ final touchdown. Ryan completed just 16-of-31 passes for 172 yards and was intercepted five times before mercifully being replaced on Austin Peay’s final possession. It was a turnover by Jax State that led to the game’s first points.
The game took a decided turn in JSU’s favor after Warren’s interception.
Coty Blanchard ran in from the 3 on JSU’s next possession to cap a nine-play, 51-yard drive. Esco’s kick made it 14-7 at the 5:56 mark, a lead the Gamecocks never relinquished.

2011 Game Summaries
Starting at the APSU 35, the Gamecocks covered the distance in just four plays, with Washaun Ealey scoring on a 27-yard run, his longest of 2011. James Esco’s extra point pulled JSU even at 7-7 with 10:34 left in the second quarter.
Ealey’s 17-yard run set up the next Jax State score. Fullback Jerry Slota finished off the eightplay drive by taking a direct snap from center and diving in from the 2 to make it 21-7 with 52 seconds left before halftime. Then disaster struck for Austin Peay (2-4, 2-2) when Monte Lewis forced a fumble that was snatched up by Robinson, who ran 32 yards to the end zone to give JSU a 28-7 halftime lead. The 28-point quarter was the most Jax State had scored in one period since 2004 against UT-Martin. Esco’s 19-yard field goal early in the third quarter extended the lead to 31-7. Ealey eclipsed the 100-yard barrier for the third straight contest, carrying 18 times for 124 yards. Jax State outgained the Governors 360-266.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Jacksonville State’s attempt to knock off its second Southeastern Conference foe in as many seasons fell short with a 38-14 loss at Kentucky. JSU had its four-game winning streak snapped and moves to 5-2 overall on the season, but remains undefeataed with a 3-0 OVC mark.

JSU got on the board after putting together a nine-play, 79 yard drive as quarterback Coty Blanchard connected with Alan Bonner for a 22-yard TD strike with 2:22 left before halftime. The scoring play was Bonner’s first receiving touchdown of the season at the 10th of his career.

“We’ve got a team that’s got a habit of making some critical mistakes. It’s a relative term in this game, mistakes, but they made a lot fewer than we did. We played a team that had two penalties and no turnovers.” Tennessee Tech limited the Gamecocks to 40 yards below its season average of 202 yards per game. JSU’s 14 points tied a season-low set a week earlier against FBS foe Kentucky. The Golden Eagles went ahead 21-14 early in the fourth quarter, driving 78 yards in nine plays. TTU quarterback Tre Lamb connected with a Ryan Tilghman on a 43-yard pass to the JSU 10 on the sixth play of the drive. Gray then ran in from the 1 on third down and Zach Sharp added the extra point to put the Golden Eagles ahead 21-14 with 13:06 remaining. After an exchange of punts, JSU took over at its 13 with 3:28 left. Coty Blanchard - who finished with a career-high 175 passing yards - completed two straight passes as the Gamecocks swiftly moved to the Tennessee Tech 30. But on second-and-1, Calvin Middleton caught a short pass from Blanchard and was hit hard by Tennessee Tech safety Corey Watson. The ball popped loose and was recovered by Tech’s Jamere Hogue, ending JSU’s comeback hopes.

“I thought we were on our way to scoring when we turned it over and lost it,” Crowe said. “Nobody hates it worse than Calvin does.” Jacksonville State looked unstoppable on its first possession, receiving the opening kickoff and piercing together a time-consuming 15-play, 77-yard march for a touchdown. The lengthy drive culminated with Blanchard tossing a 4-yard touchdown pass to Jerry Slota in the back of the end zone. James Esco’s extra point made it 7-0 with 7:56 left in the first. Tennessee Tech, which had zero total yards through the game’s 22 minutes, took advantage of a gamble by the Gamecocks for its first points.

Words to describe what happened in the final seven minutes against Eastern Kentucky, however, were much tougher to come by. The host Gamecocks built a 24-point lead on the strength of Washaun Ealey’s 83-yard touchdown run with 7:25 to play, then watched the Colonels respond with a comeback that won’t soon be forgotten anytime soon in the Ohio Valley Conference. EKU scored four touchdowns in a six-minute span, then stuffed a last-gasp JSU drive a yard short of the goal line, as it rallied for a 52-48 victory in front of 16,845 stunned fans at Burgess-Snow Field. “A disaster,” Gamecocks wide receiver Alan Bonner said. “A total disaster.” Head coach Jack Crowe added: “I have never seen anything like it.” In the immediate aftermath of Ealey’s run, which put him over 200 yards for the game, it looked as though JSU (5-4, 4-2 in the OVC) had positioned itself as the team to beat over the next two weeks. The Gamecocks entered the day in a three-way tie for the OVC lead along with EKU (6-3, 5-1) and Tennessee Tech, but the latter lost at home to Murray State, leaving the door ajar. Cameron Bailey’s 60-yard touchdown reception from T.J. Pryor with 6:42 remaining seemed inconsequential at the time, especially after JSU’s Rodney Garrott recovered and returned the ensuing onside kick to the Colonels’ 28-yard line. Crowe, in fact, took out several starters, including Ealey and quarterback Coty Blanchard. But on fourth down, reserve running back Jordan Allen fumbled, EKU’s Anthony Brown picked up the ball and 71 yards later it was 48-38. “That was a major coaching error, to be honest with you,” Crowe said in reference to his substitutions. “(The) fumble recovery was a momentum shift.” The Colonels recovered their next onside kick and needed only four plays to score, this time on an 18-yard Pryor-to-Justin Williams TD pass with 4:14 to go. “It just kept snowballing on us,” Blanchard said. “Everybody on the sideline started to get a little antsy.” The feeling intensified after the Gamecocks went three-and-out and EKU’s Jeremy Caldwell returned a punt 17 yards into their territory. Two plays later, Pryor -- who had five TD passes -- hit Tyrone Goard for his third score from 37 yards out at the 1:24 mark. “Twenty-eight points (in that span) is almost an impossible scenario,” Crowe said. “As a coach, this will be the closest to you thinking you have a game won.” JSU still gave itself a good chance to do just that, driving 60 yards in a hurry behind the arm of Blanchard (19-of-28, 300 yards, two TDs) and the legs of Bonner (nine receptions, 205 yards, two TDs). It had a first-and-goal at the Colonels’ 4-yard line with 17 seconds left, but a Blanchard scramble and a spiked pass left it with a final play from the 2. On the game’s final play, senior tailback Calvin Middleton got stopped a yard short of the goal line. “When it came time for us to knock (them) off the ball, we didn’t do it,” Crowe said. “Give credit to EKU.” Score by Quarters 1 Eastern Kentucky 10 Jacksonville State 10 Scoring Summary: 1st 11:05 EKU 10:22 JSU 03:34 EKU 2nd

JSU ALL-AMERICANS
Blackie Heath
Ray Vinson
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
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.
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.
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
Jim Glasgow 1957
HISTORY
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.

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.
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.
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
1958
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
Al Carter 1961
1974 • 1975
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.
164
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.

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.

His 22 touchdown passes in 1982 still stands as the school record and helped him earn “Alabama Amateur Athlete of the Year” honors.

Gary Wagner played linebacker well enough to make all-conference as a junior, but he really came into his own as a middle guard during his senior season. Wagner, note for his quickness and ability to block punts, field goals and extra-point attempts (17 in two years), won NAIA Little All-America honors at this position. In addition, the former Huntsville prep star was voted all-district and all-conference during the 1976 season, when Jax State did not allow a rushing touchdown in the first eight games.
Joe Billingsley continued a long tradition of dominating offensive linemen from Jax State. A 6-1, 290pound player from Columbus, Miss., Billingsley earned first-team All-America honors from the Associated Press and second team honors from Football News as a sophomore in 1986 before garnering them again in 1988. In his senior year, he anchored an offensive line that paved the way for the Gamecocks’ Gulf South Conference leading 264 yards rushing per game and the school’s first conference title in six years.

WHY WE ARE THE GAMECOCKS “Go Eagle Owls!” would be the resounding cry from Paul Snow Stadium today if ardent fans hadn’t decided 50 years ago that the school mascot should be a bird of a different feather.
The exact details are lost to history, but a group of fans decided it was hard for the school’s image to soar like an eagle if the team’s name was something of a turkey. People like E.C. Wilson, Bruce Chase and Charles Sprayberry felt a more collegiatesounding moniker would be more appropriate.
Along with the new name came new colors. The blue and gold were tossed out in favor of the familiar red and white worn by the area high school players. The story goes that there were two camps - those who wanted to keep the Eagle Owl nickname and those who wanted new colors. Legend has it that a compromise was worked out; new colors for a new mascot.
The supporters looked to Southern culture rather than the north pole to symbolize the school’s tough spirit. Tongue firmly planted in beak, Gamecock supporters crowed the loudest, and the University found itself with a new identity: a mascot familiar to everyone, including the farm boys who comprised most of the student body back then. For nearly a half-century – up until 1946 – the fledgling Eagle Owls hooted with pride from the scanty facilities adjacent to the field at John Forney National Guard Armory.
The State Normal School (SNS) team was sparse by today’s standards, but the gridiron action was competitive from the start. Present day rivalries such as Samford (Howard College) and Troy State were rooted in those early games.

Jacksonville State University’s first football team was fielded in the late 1800’s and nicknamed in honor of a rare predatory bird found near the Arctic circle.
The team had only 23 players when SNS was renamed Jacksonville Teachers College in 1946, with Head Coach Don Salls beginning his first season, but there was a “big school” atmosphere developing in the foothills.

2012 Gamecocks Football
It was all worked out by 1947 when the Fighting Gamecocks took to the field for the first time. And, as is true to the nature of the warlike bird itself, the football team and other athletes fought their way to respectability in intercollegiate ranks - eventually bringing home a national championship in every major sport.
ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Jacksonville State University football players have compiled a great tradition on the field, but also have many academic accomplishments as well. Here are the Gamecocks who have been named to the Academic All-Conference teams and earned other major academic awards.

The ACC
198
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.

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.

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 AllState selection, Connell came to JSU in 1950 and played both football and baseball. As a freshman, Connell beat out five returning lettermen for a starting position at guard, a spot that he Jodie Connell 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.

Johnny Newman (66), a guard from Hartselle, Ala., died during spring training for the 1969 season. Newman played for the Gamecocks in 1967 and 1968 before his death. The 1969 Media Guide and season was dedicated to his memory.
The Gamecocks have made numerous appearances on regional or national television over the years. Gamecock football games have been telecast nationally by ABC, ESPN and ESPN2, and regionally by Fox SportsNet and Comcast/Charter Sports. The Gamecocks are scheduled to appear locally on WJXS-TV 24 for all home games again this season.
Statistical Champions
“WHUP TROY!” 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.

NCAA DIVISION II NATIONAL CHAMPIONS
FLORENCE ˜ The Braly Stadium scoreboard said fourth and six from the 22 with 29 seconds left for the defending NCAA Division II national champion Pittsburg State. But for
Jacksonville States defense it was fourth and forChuck Robinson ever. There could be no next year for the Gamecocks, no second chance. There could be no more rebuilding and coming back for another shot. Twentynine more ticks, and Jacksonville State football would be forever parted from Division II competition.
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

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.

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.”
