TRADITION
A Championship Tradition Jacksonville State athletics continued its dominance and added to its long list of success on certain fields, while making huge strides in new areas during the 2016-17 academic year. The Gamecocks won their third-straight Ohio Valley Conference football championship and remained one of the nation’s top programs on the gridiron, while also claiming their ninth men’s golf title and the 15th softball title in school history. The 21st football conference title in JSU history was its sixth in the OVC and came in historic fashion, but the biggest story of 2016-17 for the Gamecocks came on the basketball court. After hiring Ray Harper to lead the JSU men’s basketball program in April, JSU saw a vision become reality in lightning-quick fashion. Harper and his staff took a program that went 8-23 the year before and went 20-15 in their first season, including the OVC Tournament title and the school’s first berth in the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament. John Grass (Football) and Jana McGinnis (Softball) earned OVC Coach of the Year honors, while Eli Jenkins Offensive), Darius Jackson (Defensive) and Marlon Bridges (Freshman) swept the OVC’s Football Player of the Year Awards. Jenkins was named the OVC’s Male Athlete of the Year for the second-straight year, one year after becoming the first Gamecock to ever receive the honor.

Jacksonville State was the first school in the nation to lay claim to NCAA national titles in football, men’s basketball and baseball at the Division II level or higher. The Gamecocks were the only school to achieve the feat until 2017, when Florida added the Division I Baseball title to its Football and Men’s Basketball titles. JSU and Florida are the only two schools to even play for all three at the Division II level or higher.

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.”

Hammett played linebacker for the Ray Hammett Gamecocks from 1974-76, and helped Jax State post 20 wins over three years, including back-to-back seven-win seasons in 1974 and 1975, and the 1974 Gulf South Conference Championship.

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 off its second fourthquarter come-from-behind win of the season, a 21-17 thriller over Chattanooga.
HISTORY
The record for a single-game crowd for a football game at BurgessSnow Field at JSU Stadium was set in the FCS semifinal in 2015 versus Sam Houston State when 23,692 fans witnessed the Gamecocks claim a 62-10 win over the Bearkats.
RECORDS
JSU Stadium 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 includes 33 luxury skyboxes, a new press area, coaches
REVIEW
Since opening in 1946, Jacksonville State has posted an incredible 271-100-8 record 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 as the Gamecocks claimed the win in the renovated stadium.
OPPONENTS
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.
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.
ABOUT JSU
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.
On the Gamecock Field House, a new scoreboard was installed in 2007, making Burgess-Snow Field the only on-campus facility in the OVC to feature two scoreboards.
COACHES
In 1946 as JSU began to change, enrollment began 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.
Prior to the 2016 season, the standard definition video board that was installed in 2007 was replaced by a new board that includes a full high definition display that measures 12 feet in height and 80 feet in width.
GAMECOCKS
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.
The natural playing surface was replaced during the summer of 2005 with 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. That field was replaced before the 2016 season with another ProGrass surface.
OUTLOOK
The football playing facility has been called Paul Snow Stadium since the 1961 season, but now also honors former coach Bill Burgess, who led the Gamecocks to the 1992 NCAA Division II National Championship.
booths, radio and television broadcast facilities, and a game management booth. The stadium was also expanded and now includes 24,000 seats.
INTRO
The Jacksonville State University Board of Trustees approved the naming of its football facility Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium in the summer of 2010 and the Gamecocks will play their 69th season there this year.

John Grass begins his fourth season as head coach of the Gamecocks and his fifth season at JSU after what has been an unprecedented four years in his profession.
Grass served as the Gamecocks’ assistant head coach and offensive coordinator in 2013 and orchestrated an offense that set numerous school, OVC and National records before taking the reigns as the head coach for the 2014 season. Since then, he has taken JSU on a run not many have seen before. His 33-6 record over three seasons is the best start to a tenure in JSU history, while his 23-3 record heading into the 2016 FCS Division I Championship Game tied for the best 26-game start to a career in FCS history. In three years, he has been named both the AFCA’s Region Coach of the Year and the Ohio Valley Conference Roy Kidd Coach of the Year three times and was the AFCA’s National Coach of the Year in 2015. He is a perfect 23-0 in Ohio Valley Conference play with three OVC titles over the past three seasons and enters the 2017 season with the longest active conference win streak in all of Division I football at 24 games. That first season as a collegiate head coach saw him take JSU to a 10-2 record and as high as No. 2 in the national polls, thanks to a perfect 8-0 mark in league play and the Gamecocks’ first outright Ohio Valley Conference title since 2004. Year number two was better, seeing the Gamecocks post a 13-2 record that included their first-ever trip to the FCS National Championship Game in Frisco, Texas. JSU catapulted into the No. 1 spot in the STATS polls, its first No. 1 ranking in school history, after falling in overtime at No. 6 Auburn in week two and would hold that spot until falling to North Dakota State in the title game. JSU went 8-0 in the OVC for the second-straight year, making Grass the first coach in league history to go unbeaten in league play in his first two seasons. A program that had never seen a 5,000-yard season in over 100 years of tradition, the three seasons under Grass’ offensive mind have seen the Gamecock offense amass over 6,000 yards of total offense in each and over 7,000 in 2015. His offense has rewritten the JSU record books and set a new standard for production on that side of the football.

They are 33-6 and a perfect 23-0 in Ohio Valley Conference play with three OVC titles over the past three seasons and enter the 2017 season with the longest active conference win streak in all of Division I football at 24 games. The 2016 season saw Gamecock football continue along the dominant path it has recently paved in FCS Football. JSU reached the No. 1 spot in the major polls for the second-straight year and entered the FCA Playoffs as the No. 3 National Seed, the third-straight season that JSU has been one of the top three seeds in the postseason. The Gamecocks went 10-2 and put together their third-straight perfect record in OVC play, making them the first team in league history to go three seasons in a row without a loss or a tie. JSU was unbeaten against FCS foes in the 2016 regular season, and the defense was a big part of that. The Gamecocks once again boasted the OVC’s best defense and the fourth-best defense in FCS, holding opposing offenses to less than 275 yards per game. The Gamecocks were also the best in the nation at getting off of the field on third down, limiting foes to a .231 third-down conversion percentage. JSU also ranked third nationally in red zone defense, fifth in rushing defense, seventh in scoring defense, seventh in interceptions, seventh in sacks, eighth in tackles for a loss and 11th in turnover margin. Gentry’s outside linebackers and defensive ends wreaked havoc on opposing quarterbacks and were led by consensus All-American Darius Jackson. The OVC Defensive Player of the Year and an All-America selection by every FCS outlet, Jackson was one of the nation’s top pass rushers in 2016, leading the OVC and ranking 16th nationally in sacks per game with 0.83. He ended the season with 10 sacks and 15 tackles for a loss, both tops in the league. Through just three sea-

sons in a Gamecock uniform, Jackson has already made his mark in the record books. He holds the school’s career records for both sacks (20.5) and tackles for a loss (40.0) with one year of eligibility remaining. The 2015 campaign took Gamecock football to new heights. A 13-2 record included a 12-game win streak that was one shy of the school record and also featured over 50 school records. The Gamecocks’ lone losses were to No. 6 Auburn in overtime and to North Dakota State in the FCS title game. JSU was ranked No. 1 in the polls for the first time in school history and held that ranking for 11 weeks. The Gamecocks went unbeaten again in the OVC to win their second-straight title and was warded the No. 1 national seed in the FCS Playoffs. JSU stood up to that seeding, downing No. 7 Chattanooga in overtime in the second round before routing No. 8 Charleston Southern and No. 7 Sam Houston State in the quarters and semis, respectively. Gentry had allconference players on both ends in 2015, with Chris Landrum earning All-America honors and First Team All-OVC accolades before signing a free agent deal with the San Diego Chargers. Landrum and fellow end Darius Jackson, a Second Team All-OVC performer, both broke the school record for tackles for a loss with 19.0 in 2015 and paced an attack that led the nation with 136 stops in the backfield. JSU’s average of 9.0 tackles for a loss were fourth nationally and played a big role in JSU leading the OVC and ranking 12th nationally in total defense. In his first season in 2014, he led a group of outside linebackers that were instrumental in helping a JSU pass rush that was one of the best in the Ohio Valley Conference. The Gamecocks finished second in the OVC in total defense and pass defense, while leading the league and ranking 23rd in the nation in rushing defense at just 127.7 yards per game. That stingy defense helped JSU post a 10-2 record, including a perfect 8-0 OVC record and the school’s fourth OVC title. Chris Landrum and LaMichael Fanning earned All-OVC honors in 2014, combining for 15 tackles for a loss
and seven sacks. The Gamecocks had three players earn All-OVC honors on the defensive side of the ball in 2013 with junior nose tackle Caleb Lawrence and Landrum joining defensive back Pierre Warren on the team. Jax State set the Ohio Valley Conference and school single-season record with 52 sacks for 321 yards and finished the season ranked fourth in the nation in sacks. The Gamecocks also set the OVC and school record by recording 11 sacks against No. 6 McNeese State in the second round of the FCS playoffs. The 11 sacks were also the most in a FCS game last season and the fourth most in NCAA history. The Gamecock defense also ranked 12th nationally in turnovers gained with 28, while returning four of those for defensive touchdowns. JSU also set school record for tackles for loss (107) and yards from tackles for loss (488). Gentry joined the Gamecocks after a five-year career at the University of Alabama, where he played under head coach Nick Saban. Gentry earned four letters while helping the Crimson Tide win BCS National Championships in 2009 and 2011. As a senior in 2011, Gentry finished the year ranking second on the team with 4.5 sacks and fourth on the team with 6.0 tackles for loss of 37 yards, and he finished with 23 tackles on the season. Gentry prepped at Prattville High School from 2003-06, where he was a part of the school’s first undefeated team going 15-0 and winning the 2006 AHSAA Class 6A State Championship his senior year. He recorded 54 tackles, including 16 sacks, as a senior in 2006. As a junior in 2005, he had 100 tackles (42 solo), including 16 for loss and 22 sacks. He was also named Autauga County Defensive Player of the Year as a senior. Gentry has one son, Brennan, and is married to former Magen Mathis.

Owen Kilgore begins his third season on the Jacksonville State coaching staff and his fourth with the program. Head coach John Grass promoted him from graduate assistant to full-time status prior to 2015. He will once again serve as cornerbacks coach at JSU. Kilgore’s 2016 cornerbacks unit was one of the nation’s best and bolstered a defense that was tops in the Ohio Valley Conference and one of the best in the nation. Led by All-American Jaylen Hill, the Gamecocks led the OVC and were seventh nationally in interceptions, while also ranking 16th nationally in defensive touchdowns. Joining Hill on the All-OVC Team in 2016 was Reggie Hall, a duo that had two of a record three interception returns for a touchdown in the Gamecocks’ win over Eastern Kentucky. Kilgore’s corners helped a unit that was fourth in the nation in total defense and in the top 25 in passing yards allowed. That team also won its third-straight OVC title and posted JSU’s third-straight unbeaten season in OVC play. The 2015 campaign took Gamecock football to new heights. A 13-2 record included a 12-game win streak that was one shy of the school record and also featured over 50 school records.

Kevin Revis
Assistant Coach Offensive Line • Second Season
GAMECOCKS COACHES ABOUT JSU
Kevin Revis begins his second season as the Gamecocks’ offensive line coach and his fourth season with the program.
OPPONENTS
Revis has been a part of what has been unprecedented success by the Gamecocks since John Grass took over in 2014, serving as an offensive graduate assistant that worked specifically with the offensive linemen. In three years at JSU has been involved with three Ohio Valley Conference championships and an impressive 33-6 combined record that includes a perfect 23-0 mark in OVC play.
REVIEW
His first season as the Gamecocks’ offensive line coach saw his unit pave the way for the best rushing attack in the OVC and the seventh-best rushing offense in the nation. JSU ran for over 250 yards per game and Revis’ front line received its credit at season’s end.
RECORDS
All five of Revis’ starting offensive lineman received All-OVC honors in 2016, with center Casey Dunn grabbing All-America recognition from every outlet. He was joined by Justin Lea and Nick Johnson on the All-OVC First Team, while Dylan Cline and Kyron Samuels grabbed Second Team honors.
HISTORY
Revis was integral in the development of one of the best offensive lines in OVC history in 2015, when the Gamecocks had four of the five First Team All-OVC linemen. The foursome of Blake Burks, Adam Wright, Lea and Dunn marked just the third time in league history and the second since 1956 to have four of the five first team offensive linemen on the team.
OVC
Dunn was an All-American at center for JSU, anchoring a unit that paved the way for a school-record 7,613 yards, the first 7,000-yard season in school history. The JSU front line opened holes for a pair of 1,000-yard rushers, with Troymaine Pope setting a school and OVC record with 1,788 yards and Eli Jenkins breaking the school rushing record by a quarterback with 1,161 yards. Revis assisted with one of the top front lines in the FCS in his first season as a graduate assistant in 2014, one that paved the way for a rushing game that led the Ohio Valley Conference and ranked fourth nationally with over 285 yards per game en route to posting a 10-2 record and an 8-0 mark in OVC play to win the school’s fourth OVC title. The JSU offense set a school record with over 510 yards of total offense per game in 2014, thanks in large part to Clark’s offensive line that featured All-American Max Holcombe, OVC Freshman of the Year Justin Lea and All-OVC selection Adam Wright. A native of Dayton, Tenn., Revis prepped at Rhea County High School and was a finalist for Tennessee’s Mr. Football Award after his senior season in 2008. An all-state player and the Region 4-4A Offensive Lineman of the Year, the three-star recruit signed with Tennessee and spent two seasons with the Vols in Knoxville. He transferred to Chattanooga in 2011 and started up front for the Mocs for three seasons. By the time his senior season came to an end in 2013, Revis was a First Team All-SoCon selection and a team captain on UTC’s first SoCon Championship team since 1984. He is engaged to Patterson Young. www.JSUGamecockSports.com

“We are very excited to have Greg Seitz lead our athletic department,” Dr. Beehler said. “Greg is very well respected in the OVC, the NCAA and nationally, and has proven himself while serving in the interim role. We work very well together. With his excellent contacts, he will do an outstanding job leading our athletic department into its bright future. I’m pleased to remove the interim title and introduce him as our Athletic Director.” In Seitz’s two-plus years at the helm, the Gamecocks have seen unprecedented success on the field and in the classroom. The 201516 season saw JSU’s highest ever finish in the men’s Capital One Cup at No. 18, ranking the Gamecocks in the top 20 athletic departments among 347 NCAA Division I athletic programs. The 2016-17 season also saw JSU finish in the top 40 at No. 39, tied with Louisville, Harvard and South Carolina and 35 spots ahead of the next Ohio Valley Conference program. The 2015 football season saw the football team post it’s first-ever No. 1 ranking in school history, and earn the No. 1 National seed in the FCS Playoffs before advancing to JSU’s first Division I National Championship Game appearance. The Gamecocks set more than 50 school records and ranked in the top three in attendance at the FCS level after hosting threestraight home playoff games. One year later, The Gamecocks reached that No. 1 national ranking again on the gridiron before entering the FCS Playoff as the No. 3 National Seed.
In the classroom, the Gamecock studentathletes posted an impressive 3.10 cumulative grade-point average for last year, marking the fifth-straight year the student-athletes have achieved at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA.
106
Additionally, 11 of the 17 sports at Jax State posted a team grade point average higher than a 3.0.
Seitz has been with JSU since 1993, when he began working as assistant sports information director. In 1999, he became Sports Information Director and was promoted to Associate Athletic Director in 2002, before being promoted to Senior Associate Athletic Director in 2011. “I am extremely humbled and honored to have the opportunity to serve as the Athletic Director at Jacksonville State,” Seitz said. “I would like to thank President Beehler, the Board of Trustees and the entire Jax State family for their trust and faith in me as we continue to move the athletic department forward. It is an opportunity that I do not take for granted, and I will work hard every day to ensure that we continue to be successful, both in the classroom and on the fields and courts of competition.” During his term as interim and Athletic Director, the JSU football team has enjoyed a rise to national prominence. The Gamecocks are unbeaten in Ohio Valley Conference play over the past three years, claiming three-straight outright titles and automatic bids into the FCS Playoffs. During the 2014-15 athletic year, both the Jacksonville State men’s and women’s athletics teams were recognized in the final Capital One Cup standings, which honor the nation’s best Division I athletic programs. The Gamecock men’s team finished 61st, while the women finished 71st out of 347 NCAA Division I athletic programs.
Seitz has been instrumental in many of the facility upgrades at Jacksonville State, including renovations at Rudy Abbott Field, Pete Mathews Coliseum and the lobby of the football field house. Seitz was also involved in the design and addition of the football stadium, and the recent softball stadium and dressing room expansion. In the summer of 2016, Seitz unveiled plans for a $7.5 million renovation to JSU’s Baseball Stadium, Rudy Abbott Field. The project will
be completed in time for the 2018 season and will include a 1,000-seat spectator grand stand with a shade canopy, an elevated, shaded entertainment or hospitality deck and service amenities, a new state-of-the-art press box to include radio and television broadcast booths, and a game operations center. The summer of 2017 saw Seitz and the Board of Trustees release their plan to install new state-of-the-art high definition video boards in Burgess-Snow Field, Rudy Abbott Field and University Field, while also placing new scoreboards at the JSU Soccer Field and the JSU Tennis Courts.
Also in 2017, Seitz announced an extension of a 14-year partnership between JSU Athletics and adidas, securing the Portland, Ore., based company as the Gamecocks’ official athletic apparel and footwear brand through the 2021-22 season. “Greg has worked tirelessly for a number of years in the athletic department at JSU, and also worked with the NCAA and AHSAA on several projects,” said Mr. Thomas Dedrick, chairman of the Athletic Committee of the JSU Board of Trustees. “In each capacity, Greg has earned the respect of both coaches and administrators. We feel that the work that he has done speaks volumes, and the knowledge of the University and its culture made Greg the best person for the job.” Seitz has served on the NCAA Men’s Final Four Media Coordinator team for the last seven years and was named to the NCAA FCS Football Committee in 2016. He also serves as a site representative for the NCAA during the Division I Baseball Regionals and Super Regionals.
He has also worked numerous NCAA Championships and Alabama High School Athletic Association events over the last 24 years. In 2002, he became the first SID elected as President of the Alabama Sports Writers Association and currently serves as the organization’s secretary and treasurer.

STADIUM: Burgess-Snow Field ATTENDANCE: 22116
JACKSONVILLE – Senior quarterback Eli Jenkins picked up where he left off as No. 3 Jacksonville State opened the 2016 campaign with a victory over longtime rival North Alabama.
OFFICIALS: Referee: Dustin Whitehea; Umpire: Jason Morgan; Linesman: Travis Muhammad; Line judge: Shane DeWitt; Back judge: Gary McCarthy; Field judge: Al Studstill; Side judge: Mi. Sweatman;
Jenkins accounted for 331 total yards and running back Roc Thomas, the former Oxford High star, ran for three touchdowns as the Gamecocks cruised to a 31-12 win before a crowd of 22,116 at Burgess-Snow Field.

Jacksonville State extended its regular-season winning streak against non-FBS foes to 22 games, dating back to 2013. The Gamecocks scored two touchdowns in the game’s first nine minutes and kept the pressure on UNA’s overmatched offense all night. The Lions got within 12 points early in the third quarter, but Thomas added the last of his three TD runs and the teams swapped field goals the rest of the way. “I thought we came out (of the game) pretty healthy, and we played really well defensively,” Jacksonville State coach John Grass said. The Lions managed just 52 yards on 32 rushing attempts.
#5 JACKSONVILLE STATE - 13 #21 LSU – 34
“They couldn’t run the ball, and take away holding penalties against our defense that kept drives going for them and it would have been an outstanding night. It was still pretty good.”
SEPTEMBER 10, 2016 – BATON ROUGE, LA.
Jenkins, a first-team preseason All-American, threw for more than 200 yards and ran for over 100 yards for the third time in his illustrious career. Jenkins hit on 20-of-34 passes for 230 yards while running for 101 yards on 13 carries, including a 47-yarder for a touchdown in the second quarter.
BATON ROUGE, La. – Death Valley on a Saturday night. Many of college football’s marquee programs have ventured into the LSU Tigers’ den and emerged with a loss.
“There were a lot of new faces out there. We’re breaking some new guys in for sure,” said Grass. “We’ve got some good talent.
FCS No. 5 Jacksonville State took the fight to 21st-ranked LSU early, but the hosts relied on big plays and the arm of reserve quarterback Danny Etling to claim a 34-13 win before 98,389 at Tiger Stadium, the largest crowd ever to watch the Gamecocks.
“I think the receiving corps from top to bottom could potentially be as talented as we’ve had. We have to get some continuity but it’s coming along.”
Jacksonville State drops to 1-1. The Gamecocks are now 1-7 all-time against Southeastern Conference opponents.
Thomas, a former standout for Grass’ teams at Oxford, was efficient in his first game wearing Gamecock red. Thomas ran 20 times for 73 yards and scored on runs of one, nine and five yards. True freshman Tyus Flakes contributed 75 yards on 12 carries as the Gamecocks piled up 278 yards on the ground. Jenkins engineered a methodical 17-play, 83-yard drive after the opening kickoff for a 7-0 JSU lead with 9:18 left in the first quarter. Jenkins’ 47-yard TD sprint three minutes later extended the cushion to 14-0. UNA got on the scoreboard on Jacob Tucker’s nine-yard pass to Julius Jones with 3:32 remaining in second quarter. Kevin Henke kicked field goals of 47 and 24 yards for the Lions in the third quarter. Gamecock kicker Cade Stinnett tacked on a 23-yarder with 6:25 remaining for the game’s final score. Four Gamecocks – Delwyn Torbert, Marlon Bridges, Joel McCandless and Quan Stoudemire – recorded seven tackles to lead the stout defensive effort. SCORE BY QUARTERS

Senior quarterback Eli Jenkins accounted for 330 yards against LSU to move past the 9,000-yard mark for his storied career. The Birmingham native hit on 17-of-35 passes for 248 yards with one touchdown and one interception while leading the Gamecocks’ run game with 82 yards. The opening kickoff was pushed back almost an hour when lightning moved into the Baton Rouge area. JSU didn’t seem affected by delay or the big stage and dominated the game’s first 15 minutes, limiting LSU – which played without injured star running back Leonard Fournette – to only 12 total yards. Jenkins quieted the rain-soaked crowd by leading Jacksonville State on a 33-yard drive for the game’s first points. Cade Stinnett converted on a 30-yard field goal on the first play of the second quarter as the Gamecocks jumped out to a 3-0 lead. Etling, a transfer from Purdue, took over for embattled starter Brandon Harris on the third LSU series and immediately infused some spark in the Tigers’ struggling offense. Etling directed touchdown drives of 70, 79 and 64 yards as LSU turned an early deficit into a 20-10 lead.
SCORING SUMMARY: 1st
“We gave up too many explosive plays,” said Jacksonville State coach John Grass. “But I was proud of our guys. The main thing is we matched their physicality and kept fighting for four quarters.”

“To me the difference in the game was after we cut it to 13-10 on an explosive play and then they came right back and scored two quick ones,” Grass said. “I thought if we could have gotten to halftime down 13-10 we would have been sitting pretty good.”

Colby Delahoussaye added the extra point as the Tigers carried a 27-10 lead to the locker room at halftime.

The Gamecocks reclaimed the lead right before the half, thanks to a four-play drive that spanned 72 yards. The rally was capped by an 11-yard touchdown run by Josh Clemons and was set up by a 32-yard pass from Jenkins to Josh Barge, whose two grabs in the game extended his streak of consecutive games with a reception to a school-record 41. CCU struck first in the second half, taking advantage of a short field set up by a 17-yard Dean Kelly punt. The Chanticleers took it 40 yards in three plays, the last a four-yard scoring run by Henderson that cut JSU’s lead to two. The Gamecocks stopped the attempt to tie on a two-point conversion, stuffing Abercrombie at the one and keeping the 20-18 lead on the scoreboard. They did reclaim the lead early in the fourth quarter, when Tyler Keane found Laquay Brown from nine-yards out and then tossed to Chris Jones on the conversion to make it a 26-20 CCU lead. That’s when JSU’s offense went to work. Jenkins and Thomas orchestrated an 11-play drive that spanned 87 yards and ate almost four minutes of clock. Jenkins threw for 32 yards and ran for 50 on that possession, including a 14-yard scamper that put JSU ahead for good, 27-26, with 6:44 to play.

That defense held a potent CCU rushing attack that hadn’t been limited to less than 100 yards in a game since 2013 to 42 yards on 35 carries. It was the lowest rushing total by the Chanticleers since the 2011 season and the 11th-fewest rushing yards allowed by JSU in its Division I history. The Chanticleers’ 1.2 yards per carry was the sixth-lowest average against a Division I Gamecock front. Jax State stopped CCU in the backfield 10 times, thanks to 2.5 tackles for loss each by E.J. Moss and Darius Jackson. Jackson had two sacks to move into fourth in JSU history with 13.5 in his career, while his 30 career tackles for a loss rank him third in school history. On the other side of the ball, Jenkins led the offense once again. The senior signal caller ran 20 times for 111 yards and a score while throwing for 248 yards and two scores on 18-for-34 passing. His third-straight game with over 200 yards passing gives him 6,271 yards in his career, third-most in school history, while his ninth career 100-yard game made him the fifth player in school history with 3,000 rushing yards in a career.

All-American De’Angelo Henderson was held to 48 yards on 20 carries, forcing his team to go to the air for success. Four quarterbacks saw action for CCU, with starter Josh Stilley going down with an injury in the second quarter. He led a 306-yard attack with 132 yards and a touchdown on 7-for-10 passing. JSU had the first opportunity of the game, but Cade Stinnett’s attempt from 41 yards found the outstretched hand of Coastal’s Osharmar Abercrombie to set up CCU with its first possession.

#3 JACKSONVILLE STATE – 48 LIBERTY - 19
SEPTEMBER 24, 2016 – LYNCHBURG, VA.
LYNCHBURG, Va. – Jacksonville State wrapped up the non-conference portion of its 2016 schedule with a resounding road win over one of the most successful FCS programs of the past decade. Eli Jenkins rushed for two touchdowns and threw two more as the third-ranked Gamecocks pounded Liberty 48-19 Saturday night at Williams Stadium. Jacksonville State’s suffocating defense snuffed out the Flames by limiting them to only 181 yards, far below their season average of 336.

“It was a quality, quality win,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “It was a great performance in a lot of places.” Liberty (1-3) managed only 41 yards and was 0-for-10 on third-down conversions in the first 30 minutes. Jacksonville State need 53 seconds to score after forcing the Flames into a three-and-out on the opening series. Jenkins was 3-for-3 on the quick drive, hitting a wide-open Thomas for a 51-yard touchdown pass just three minutes into the contest. Connor Rouleau’s extra point put the Gamecocks in front 7-0 at the 12:06 mark in the first quarter. Liberty’s only first-half highlight came on a 31-yard field goal by Alex Probert. Another long three-play drive extended Jacksonville State’s lead to 14-3 midway through the first. Jenkins ripped off his longest run of the season, a 76-yard sprint to the end zone, with 4:48 remaining in the quarter. It was the senior quarterback’s longest run since an 83-yarder against Charleston Southern in last year’s FCS playoffs. Josh Barge, who earlier became the sixth player in Ohio Valley Conference history to surpass the 3,000-yard milestone for career receiving, returned a Liberty punt 75 yards for touchdown early in the second quarter. Barge became the first Gamecock to return a punt for a touchdown since Alan Bonner went 64 yards against Alabama A&M in 2009. Jenkins scored on a one-yard sneak and Cade Stinnett’s kick gave JSU a 27-3 halftime lead. “They could not get anything going on offense. I thought it was just a great performance defensively,” Grass said. “Offensively, we wanted more explosive plays and we got it. It was a night of explosive plays.” That explosiveness continued after Liberty had closed to within 27-10 entering the final quarter. Thomas scored on a two-yard run one play after breaking free on a 57-yard scamper on the first play of the fourth. Shaq Davidson hauled in a 69-yard touchdown pass from Jenkins five minutes later, and reserve back Justice Owens broke loose on an 87-yard touchdown run to make the final 48-19 with 1:27 remaining. Jacksonville State sacked Liberty’s quarterbacks six times and intercepted two passes. The Flames managed only 44 yards on 36 rush attempts. SCORE BY QUARTERS

TENNESSEE TECH - 21 #3 JACKSONVILLE STATE – 40
OCTOBER 8, 2016 – JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – Jacksonville State extended the longest consecutive conference win streak in the FCS to 18 in its Ohio Valley Conference opener against Tennessee Tech. The No. 3 Gamecocks (4-1) forced five turnovers and Josh Clemons ran for a game-high 110 yards and three touchdowns in a 40-21 victory in front of a sun-drenched crowd of 16,092 at Burgess-Snow Field. Back-to-back OVC champion Jacksonville State rolled up 446 total yards despite the absence of Eli Jenkins (stinger) in the second half and Roc Thomas (concussion) for most of the afternoon. Tennessee Tech dropped to 2-4, 2-2 in the OVC. Jacksonville’s State offense sputtered at times but still had more than enough firepower to beat the Golden Eagles for the fifth straight time. Clemons had touchdown runs of seven, 26 and nine yards while Marlon Bridges, Delwyn Torbert and Jaylen Hill came up with interceptions, and Selwyn Torbert and Randy Robinson recovered Tennessee Tech fumbles to lead the salty defensive performance. Tennessee Tech was limited to only 229 total yards, 137 below its season average.

“Defensively we couldn’t have played much better outside of one drive that was aided by two penalties,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “Their quarterback didn’t have a long time to throw the ball. We were able to get to him quickly and that prevented their receivers from making double moves against us.”

Jacksonville State led 33-7 at halftime and was never seriously threatened in the final 30 minutes.
A one-yard run by Jenkins, Clemons’ third touchdown of the half, and a 39-yard Stinnett field goal increased Jacksonville State’s lead to 33-7 at the break. Bryant Horn performed admirably in relief of Jenkins after halftime, completing both of his pass attempts, including a 31-yard touchdown to Shaq Davidson with 2:27 left in the third quarter. “He can just make plays,” Grass said of the redshirt sophomore quarterback. “He’s got a good arm and knowledge of the game. I thought he played really well.”

Jacksonville State struck first after forcing an Austin Peay punt on the game’s first series. Jenkins directed a 10-play, 62-yard drive for the game’s first points. Demontrez Terry hauled in his third career touchdown pass, an 11-yarder from Jenkins, and Cade Stinnett tacked on the extra point for a 7-0 JSU lead at the 8:05 mark in the first quarter. Jenkins and Barge each reached impressive milestones on Jacksonville State’s second series. Barge’s first catch of the day tied the OVC record for most consecutive games with a reception. He now has caught at least one pass in 44 straight games, tying the league mark previously established by Samford’s Jeff Moore from 2004-07. Barge and Eastern Washington’s Cooper Kupp are one reception away from tying the FCS record of 45 consecutive games with a reception. Jenkins joined Eastern Illinois’ Jimmy Garrapolo and Murray State’s Casey Brockman as the only players in OVC history with 10,000 career total yards after his 14-yard run to the Austin Peay 29 midway through the first. But the Gamecocks came away without points when Stinnett’s 49-yard field goal sailed right.

OCTOBER 22, 2016 – RICHMOND, KY.
RICHMOND, Ky. – The offense lost its way to the end zone, so Jacksonville State’s smothering defense had to pick up the slack against Eastern Kentucky. Reggie Hall, Joel McCandless and Jaylen Hill returned interceptions for touchdowns as the second-ranked Gamecocks escaped with a 24-7 win at Roy Kidd Stadium. It marked the first time in Jacksonville State’s vaunted history that its defense scored three TDs in a game via interception returns. Hall picked off a pass by quarterback Tyler Swofford and raced 88 yards down the Colonels’ sideline with 9:34 to go to seal Jacksonville State’s 20th consecutive Ohio Valley Conference victory.

#22 EASTERN ILLINOIS - 14 #2 JACKSONVILLE STATE – 47
Josh Clemons ran for a career-high 146 yards on 26 carries as JSU had its second-lowest offensive output of the season with 351 yards. The Colonels’ defense limited Eli Jenkins – the OVC’s leading rusher at 101.3 yards per game – to 25 yards on 12 carries. Josh Barge caught six Jenkins passes for 72 yards and extended his streak of games with at least one reception to 45 games, tying the FCS record held by three others. The Gamecocks snapped Eastern Kentucky’s streak of nine straight homecoming wins with their fourth win in a row in the series. The Colonels entered the game ranked 14th nationally at 457.3 total yards per game, but mustered just 260 yards against JSU. Jacksonville State’s offense sputtered in the first half and failed to produce points. JSU’s kicking game continued to have issues as Stinnett was wide right on a 36-yard field goal attempt in the first quarter and had a 41-yard attempt blocked late in the second. The Gamecocks entered the game having converted 83 percent of their trips to the red zone, but were 0-for-2 over the first 30 minutes. This year’s senior class tied the 2012-2015 class with its 40th victory, tying it as the winningest class in Jacksonville State Division I history. Bridges recorded a team-high eight tackles plus his interception. Hall and Ra’Shad Green had six stops each.

OCTOBER 29, 2016 – JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – The first FCS selection committee rankings will be released next week, and Jacksonville State solidified a case for the top spot with its performance against No. 22 Eastern Illinois. The second-ranked Gamecocks shook off offensive cobwebs from the previous week and rolled to a 47-14 win before a homecoming crowd of 21,655 at Burgess-Snow Field on Saturday. Jacksonville State improved to 7-1 and 4-0 in the Ohio Valley Conference with its 21st straight league victory. Roc Thomas rushed for 115 yards after missing the previous two games with an injury as JSU posted its biggest margin of victory in series history. Josh Clemons added a pair of touchdown runs and Eli Jenkins passed for two more scores. Jenkins accounted for 242 total yards to move into second place on the OVC’s career total offense list. The Gamecocks’ offense, which failed to produce a touchdown in a 24-7 win at Eastern Kentucky the previous week, had no such issues against the Panthers. JSU led 21-0 after nine minutes and stretched its cushion to 31-7 by halftime.

“We scored in the red zone,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “We got the ball in the end zone and that’s what we didn’t do last week. We ran the ball well, threw the ball and we made some field goals. “Today was just a great team win. I don’t think we can play much better. We played a good football team and really dominated most of the game.” Jacksonville State wasted no time in putting the game out of reach.

“We didn’t play great, but we didn’t play terrible. We found a way to win the game, but just left it a little too close at the end. The Gamecocks’ first game of the season as the No. 1 team in the FCS wasn’t decided until Dalton Campbell fell on an onside kick after SEMO drew to within 17-10 on Ryan McCrum’s 23-yard field goal with 24 seconds remaining. The Redhawks (3-6, 3-3) had driven 83 yards in 14 plays after recovering a fumble as the Gamecocks were trying to run out the clock in the final minutes. SEMO’s zero net rushing yards broke the old mark of 11 yards on 26 attempts by Murray State in 2001. “Our defense continues to play well,” Grass said. “Our defense has bailed us out of two road games.” Southeast Missouri finished with 206 total yards – all through the air. Jacksonville State began the day ranked first in FCS at total defense at 259.6 yards per game. Jenkins became JSU’s all-time passing leader when he hit Jamari Hester on a 16-yard completion to start the fourth quarter. It turned out to be his last completion before turning the reins over to backup quarterback Bryant Horn. Jenkins connected with Josh Barge for a 20-yard touchdown pass deep into the first quarter to give the Gamecocks a 7-0 lead they never relinquished. Cade Stinnett boosted JSU’s lead to 10-0 with a 45-yard field goal with 5:02 left in the second. Horn, who came on in relief in the second quarter for the first time, tossed an 11-yard touchdown pass to Josh Clemons with 1:19 remaining before halftime. Clemons’ first career TD catch extended Jacksonville State’s lead to 17-0 at halftime. Jaylen Hill and Siran Neal had interceptions for the Gamecocks. Neal and Joel McCandless were credited with nine tackles each.

MURRAY, Ky. – Jacksonville State overcame another slow start on the road to defeat the Racers 33-15 at Roy Stewart Stadium and clinch a share of the Ohio Valley Conference championship. The Gamecocks (9-1, 6-0 OVC) can claim their third consecutive outright league title with a victory over second-place UT-Martin in next week’s regular season finale at Burgess-Snow Field. JSU’s 23rd straight OVC win – now the second-longest streak in conference history – did not come easily. Roc Thomas came off the bench to run for a career-high 165 yards and three touchdowns as the Gamecocks broke open a tight game after halftime. The junior from Oxford scored on 7-yard run in the third quarter and eight and 75 yards in the fourth as the Gamecocks wore down Murray State’s defense in the second half. The upset-minded Racers (4-6, 4-3) led 3-0 deep into the second quarter thanks to a Connor Mitchell’s 45-yard field goal.

But Jacksonville State finally got on the scoreboard as Eli Jenkins perfectly executed a six-play, 80-yard drive that took only 44 seconds in the final minute of the half. Jenkins was 6-for-6 passing on the drive and finished it off with a 23-yard TD pass to Jamari Hester with 17 seconds left before intermission. Cade Stinnett’s extra point gave JSU a 7-3 lead it never relinquished. Whatever message Jacksonville State head coach John Grass delivered at halftime got through to his players. The Gamecocks offense, limited to 189 total yards through two quarters, exploded for 346 in the second half and finished with its first 500-plus effort (535) since a win over Liberty on Sept. 24. It was JSU’s second-highest total yardage this season. “Overall, just proud of the road win,” said Grass. “Hopefully it will be the last road game for awhile. “We made some adjustments at halftime, got the ball first (to start the third quarter) and I think we played pretty good. Field position played a big part in the second half.” Josh Clemons also added a 1-yard run with 9:08 to go in the fourth quarter. Jacksonville State’s defense delivered another outstanding performance against the potent Murray State offense that was averaging 28.1 points per game. The Racers managed only 178 yards (just 40 on the ground), punted 12 times and quarterback KD Humphries was sacked six times. Siran Neal recorded a game-high 12 tackles and Ra’Shad Green had an interception. SCORE BY QUARTERS

Bridges 1-0.
The Skyhawks (7-5, 6-2) had their five-game win streak and faint NCAA playoff hopes end. Jacksonville State’s offense was efficient all afternoon and capitalized on the turnovers forced by the defense. Hill’s first interception on the game’s opening series led to the first of Jenkins’ four touchdowns, a one-yard quarterback sneak with 12:20 left in the first quarter.
Hill’s electrifying 77-yard interception return after the Skyhawks had driven deep into JSU territory set up Jenkins’ second touchdown, a nine-yard run with 6:05 to go in the second quarter. Jenkins added touchdown runs of 32 and 10 yards in the second half. He finished with 54 yards on 12 carries, plus 104 passing yards.

DECEMBER 3, 2016 – JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – The No. 2 Jacksonville State football team fell 40-24 to Youngstown State Saturday afternoon at Burgess-Snow Field, bringing an end to the 2016 football season for the Gamecocks. Youngstown State scored on its second play on a 70-yard touchdown pass and kept up the offensive pressure all afternoon to defeat the Gamecocks 40-24 before a rain-soaked Burgess-Snow Field crowd in Saturday’s second-round playoff matchup. Jacksonville State finished the year 10-2. The loss snapped a 14-game win streak at Burgess-Snow Field. “We gave up too many explosive plays, which is uncharacteristic of us, especially in the passing game,” said Jacksonville State coach John Grass. “It was just one of those days. “They’re a really good football team and fundamentally sound. They threw the ball a lot better than we expected. They made the throws and catches.” Eli Jenkins wrapped up his illustrious career at Jacksonville State by running for 189 yards on a career-high 25 carries.
Bridges and Quan Stoudemire had a game-high 10 tackles apiece to lead Jacksonville State defensively.
The senior quarterback added 140 yards passing, but completed only 6-of-26 throws against the stingy YSU secondary. He finishes with 3,896 career rushing yards, second-best in JSU history. “We had a lot of respect for Jacksonville State and knew we were going to have to come into their place and play a really good football team,” said Youngstown State coach Bo Pelini.

OPPONENTS
Cook was intercepted by Jaylen Hill (twice), Marlon Bridges and Darius Jackson as the Gamecocks built a 19-0 lead by intermission. Hill’s second interception was the 13th of his career, moving him into first place in JSU’s Division I history.
ABOUT JSU
“We’ve got a lot more football to play,” Grass told the crowd of 18,982 moments after the trophy presentation.
JSU’s top-ranked defense served notice to any potential playoff opponents by totally shutting down the No. 1 scoring offense in the OVC at 34.5 points per game.
COACHES
“I don’t know what the selection committee will do for us or where they will seed us,” Jacksonville State head coach John Grass said, whose squad was ranked No. 1 in the selection committee rankings two weeks ago. “We’re not in control of that. We’ll take home-field advantage as long as we can get it.”

161
G A M E CO C K R E CO R D S
J SU A L L-A M E R I C A N S
BLACKIE HEATH - 1946
TERRY HARRIS - 1967
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.
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 holds the record for most yards pass receiving (career) 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.
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 ninestraight 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.
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
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.
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 AllAmerica 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.
JIM GLASGOW - 1957
BOYCE CALLAHAN - 1973
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 Blue-Gray Game in Montgomery, Ala., joining Al Woodham.
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.
BILLY HICKS - 1955
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.
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.
162
CALVIN WORD - 1974 • 1975 Calvin Word became the only Jacksonville State football player to earn Little AllAmerica 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.
GARY WAGNER - 1976 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.

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. In 2015 wide receiver Dalton Screws also received the OVC Scholar-Athlete Award and was then named the Doris and Eddie Robinson FCS Scholar-Athlete of the Year for his efforts in the classroom and on the field. Outside of JSU, Screws served as a missionary in Tanzania, efforts that earned him a spot on the AllState Good Works Team.
All-Americans The Gamecocks have had a total of 70 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. In JSU’s most successful season in Division I in 2013, Griffin Thomas (PK), DaMarcus James (RB) Max Holcombe (C), Eli Jenkins (QB) and Josh Barge (WR) all five earned All-America honors after leading the Gamecocks to an 11-4 record and into the quarterfinals of the FCS playoffs. In 2014, Max Holcombe (C), Jermaine Hough (CB), Devaunte Sigler (DL), and Justin Lea (OL) earned All-America mentions after a 10-2 season and OVC title. The historic 2015 season saw five All-Americans in a Gamecock uniform. Eli Jenkins (QB), Casey Dunn (C), Troymaine Pope (RB), Jermaine Hough (CB) and Chris Landrum (DE) were honored by multiple All-America outlets at seasons end. In 2016, JSU had six All-Americans after going 10-2 and claiming its third-straight OVC title. Eli Jenkins (QB), Casey Dunn (C), Justin Lea (OL), Darius Jackson (DE), Jaylen Hill (CB) and Marlon Bridges (SAF) were all named All-Americans at seasons end.
All-Star Games 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

Curt Porter also palyed in the Texas versus the Nation All-Star game in 2010, while Rodney Garrott played in the 2011 FCS Senior Scout Bowl.
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, that used to be 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. The two have not met since 2001 after Troy moved up to FBS.
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 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.

REVIEW
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.

COACHES
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 comefrom-behind win, a 21-17 thriller over Chattanooga.
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-ofthe-Game.

Gulf South Conference 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 Mid-South 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. On June 1, 1992, JSU officially withdrew its membership from the GSC. During the 22 years the Gamecocks competed in the GSC, JSU won 37 regular season titles, six NCAA Division II National Championships and more All-Sports Trophies than any school in league history, including an unprecedented four consecutive for both the men’s and women’s programs from 1990-93. In fact, JSU won more GSC championships in football (9), men’s basketball (7), and baseball (5, three-way tie) than any school, past or present. More than 100 Jax State football players were named to the All-Gulf South Conference football team. Six more were selected as the “Players of the Year” at the conclusion of the season.
Hall of Fame The Jacksonville State University Athletic Hall of Fame inducted its first members of J.W. Stephenson, Barto Hughes and Ray Wedgeworth in 1972. Over seventy former Gamecocks are currently in the Hall of Fame, with four more former Gamecocks inducted every other year. The Athletic Hall of Fame is on permanent display in the Club Level of the Press Box at JSU Stadium.

Ice Bowl Jacksonville State vs Mississippi College in the 1989 NCAA Division II National Championship Game in Florence, Ala. On December 9, 1989, a winter storm came across the Tennessee Valley and dumped more than two inches of ice and snow the night before the Gamecocks faced GSC foe Mississippi College for the National Title on ESPN. Jax State had beaten the Choctaws 23-3 soundly earlier in the season, but Shane Stewart’s 19-yard field goal with 6:13 remaining in the third was enough to give MC the win. It was the third time in as many games that JSU had not allowed the Chocs a single TD. Snow, which fell continuously from the morning hours, turned the field into a slick maze of ice; making footing treacherous. JSU, stymied by the conditions and the 31 degree temperature, managed just 126 yards rushing. The title was vacated by the NCAA in 1992 after Mississippi College was found in violation of numerous NCAA violations.
Kickoff Return JSU’s school record for longest kickoff return in school history is held by Ray Vinson, from Oxford. Vinson’s 103-yard kickoff return gave the Gamecocks’ the spark they need to stop highly-rated Troy State 27-6. It gave the Gamecocks its 19th straight homecoming victory. Returns from the end zone now count just 100 yards. JSU’s Joey Hamilton was the last player to return a kickoff for 100 yards, vs Samford, on October 2, 1999.
Marching Southerners The JSU Gamecocks are backed by the Marching Southerners and Ballerinas. From JSU home football games, to the 1996 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, to Alabama Governors inaugural festivities and dozens appearances at band competitions, festivals and parades last season alone, the Marching Southerners have entertained thousands since their debut in 1956. The Marching Southeners was the featured Marching Band and led the 2012 New Years Day Parade in London, England, for Queen Elizabeth. They performed in Hawaii at the 75th Anniversary of the attack

Jax State has played 14 overtime games in its football history and five have been multiple overtimes, and the Gamecocks are 8-6 in the extra period. They claimed a 17-10 win over Tennessee Tech in 2006, winning 49-48 in double-overtime at Ole Miss in 2010 and 34-27 at Georgia State in 2010. JSU won the first two of three consecutive overtime games in 2013, beating North Alabama and Georgia State before losing to Murray State one week later. The Gamecocks played the first overtime game in school history on November 16, 1996, against Northeast Louisiana at Indian Stadium in Monroe, La. Each team scored a touchdown on its first possession, forcing a second overtime with the score tied at 28-28. In the second extra period, JSU’s Montressa Kirby threw his second interception of the night. That allowed NLU kicker Cory Babineaux to kick his first field goal attempt of the game, booting a 29-yarder to win the game and end the Gamecocks’ 1996 season. In 1999, JSU played its second overtime game in school history vs McNeese State on October 16. JSU held a 19-6 lead at the half, but McNeese stormed back when Shonz LaFrenz kicked a 39-yard field as time expired in regulation to tie the score at 26-26. Both teams scored a touchdown on their first possession of overtime. JSU’s Brad Hopkins kicked a 40-yard field to give the Gamecocks a 36-33 lead in the second overtime. McNeese State took over and fumbled on second down and JSU tried to pick up the ball and a MSU lineman was able to recover the fumble for the Cowboys. On the next play, Slade Nagle tossed a 12-yard touchdown pass to Jimmy Redmond to give the Cowboys a 39-36 SFL win.

Playing football with just one arm didn’t slow down this Gamecock AllAmerican. Jodie Connell was a fouryear 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 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. His senior year, he was named cocaptain 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.

REVIEW
The Gamecock football program has had the chance to play 17 times in the NCAA playoffs and won its first in 1992 with a dramatic 17-13 win over Pittsburg State in the Championship Game in Florence, Alabama. Jax State has played in the championship game five times (1992, 1991, 1989, 1977, 2015). The JSU baseball team won the Division II National Championship in 1990 and in 1991, while the Gamecock Basketball team claimed the title in 1985. Jacksonville State and Florida are the only two schools in the nation to lay claim to NCAA national titles in football, men’s basketball and baseball at the Division I or Division II levels.
One of the biggest wins in the school’s 112-year football history happened in 2010 in Oxford, Miss., as the Gamecocks rallied from a 21-point half time deficit to claim the school’s first-ever win over a Southeastern Conference opponent with a thrilling 49-48 double-over time win over the Rebels. Ole Miss jumped out to a 31-10 halftime advantage and was trying to add to a 31-13 lead near the end of the third quarter before JSU’s Keginald Harris intercepted a Jeremiah Masoli pass and returned it 24 yards. True freshman Coty Blanchard drove the Gamecocks 59 yards in eight plays to cut the lead to 11 points. When Ole Miss tried to deliver another knockout punch on the ensuing drive, JSU delivered a stop on four-and-6 from the Gamecocks’ 33-yard line. Blanchard then directd 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. Ivory also directed JSU’s first score in overtime, but Blanchard connected on a 30-yard touchdown pass on fourth down in the second overtime to Kevyn Cooper to pull JSU within 49-48. Blanchard then tossed the game-winning two-point conversion to Calvin Middleton just inside the endzone to send shockwaves through the 55,768 fans at Vaught-Hemmingway Stadium and through the college football world on the opening weekend of 2010.

Jax State played its third overtime game in school history in Nacogdoches, Texas, vs Stephen F. Austin on October 13, 2001. SFA held a 17-16 lead at the half, but the Gamecocks battled back with 14 points in the third quarter to build a 30-17 lead entering the fourth quarter. The Lumberjacks tied the game at 30-30, after going 95 yards in 10 plays in the final three minutes to force overtime. Both teams scored touchdowns on their first possession of overtime. The ‘Jacks then took a 44-37 lead after scoring on a 4th and goal play from the eight yard line, a pass from Wes Pate to Courtney Garcia. The Gamecocks then took over, but was unable to score as Reggie Stancil’s pass fell incompete in the endzone on 4th down. In 2003, JSU’s first season in the Ohio Valley Conference, the Gamecocks led for more than 59 minutes, but Murray State rallied from a 17-10 fourth quarter deficit and marched 71 yards in seven plays and tied the game with just :24 remaining in the game. In the game, senior kicked Steven Lee set a school record by kicking a 52-yard field goal during the second quarter, the Citronelle, Ala., native finished the game with three field goals. In the overtime period, the Gamecocks took possession and failed to gain a first down. Lee’s 39-yard field goal sailed wide right, so Murray State took over. On the second play, Ulysses ran 20 yards up the middle to score a touchdown as the Racers handed JSU its only OVC loss during the 2003 championship season. The Gamecocks picked up their first-ever over-time win in 2006 with a 17-10 road win at Tennessee Tech. Junior quarterback Matt Hardin connected on a 17-yard pass to Taurean Rhetta for the JSU win. TTU tied the game at 10-10 with 4:31 left in the fourth after Derek White scored on a six-yard run and Nate Johnson kicked the point after. The Gamecocks took the ensuing kickoff and drove to the TTU 26-yard line and Gavin Hallford attempted a 43-yard field goal into a strong and gusty wind, but his attempt was just short as time expired. JSU went on offense first and Hardin completed a 12-yard pass to Rhetta down to the TTU 13. Clay Green then was hit for a four-yard loss back to the 17 before Hardin connected with Rhetta for the game winning score. The Gamecock defense then answered the call and JSU’s Devin Phillips stopped TTU’s Brent McNeal on fourth down to seal the win. One of the biggest wins in school history came in the season opener of 2010 when the Gamecocks claimed a thrilling 49-48 double-overtime road win at Ole Miss. The Gamecocks rallied from a 21-point halftime deficit and Marques Ivory brought JSU back with a 19-yard touchdown pass to Alan Bonner with 18 seconds left in regulation and a strike to La’Ray Williams for the 2-point conversion forced the Gamecocks into overtime with Ole Miss. In the first OT, Ivory tossed a 7-yard pass to Alan Bonner and James Esco kicked the point after to give JSU a 41-34 lead. The Rebels’ Brandon Bolden scored on a 2-yard run and Bryson Rose kicked the point after to tie the game at 41-41. Ole Miss then took the lead in the second OT after Enrique Davis scored on a 2-yard run and Rose added the point after. JSU then took over and was faced with 4thand-30 in the second overtime before Coty Blanchard connected with Kevyn Cooper in the back of the endzone to cut the Rebels lead to 48-47. Blanchard then scrambled right and was under heavy pressure before dumping off a short pass to Calvin Middleton in the endzone for the 2-point conversion to give the Gamecocks the upset of the 2010 football season. Two weeks after pulling off a thrilling 49-48 double-overtime win at Ole Miss, the Gamecocks scored a 34-27 win over Georgia State in the Georgia Dome to improve to 3-0 on the season. The two teams swapped leads throughout the entire game, with neither team leading by more than a touchdown and with the two teams tied at 27-27 at the end of regulation, JSU had the ball first in OT. Jamal Young had runs of 6 and 14 to give JSU first and goal at the 5-yard line.

The Gamecocks lost just one regular season game, a 27-20 overtime loss at No. 6 Auburn that was the first time an FCS school had taken a ranked FBS foe into
On top of the national acclaim the 2015 Gamecocks earned on the field, they were also recognized for their efforts away from the field. Junior wide receiver Dalton Screws earned several honors in 2015, starting with the OVC Scholar-Athlete Award, the highest honor an OVC student-athlete can receive. Screws was an Academic All-District player for JSU and was also named to the AllState Good Works Team for his work in the mission fields in Tanzania. At the conclusion of the season, Screws was presented the Doris and Eddie Robinson FCS Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award at the annual STATS Awards Banquet. Lastly, Screws became the first Gamecock to win the OVC’s prestigious Steve Hamilton Sportsmanship Award in the summer of 2016, naming him the conference’s top sportsman for the 2015-16 year among all sports.

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.
Jenkins repeated in 2016, becoming the first student-athlete to win backto-back since 2009 and only the fifth student-athlete in OVC history to receive the honor in back-to-back seasons. Jenkins concluded his career with a 36-0 record as a starting quarterback against non-Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) opponents in the regular season (he was 25-0 against OVC opponents).

GAMECOCK BOWL HISTORY
1977 Grantland Rice Bowl
Jacksonville State University enjoyed one of its finest moments in the school’s athletic history, when the Gamecocks defeated North Dakota State, 31-7, before a capacity crowd in the Grantland Rice Bowl. The game, played in Anniston and on ABC regional television, belonged to the Gamecocks from the opening whistle. Jax State advanced to the finals of the NCAA Division II playoffs with the victory. Jacksonville State rolled up 223 yards rushing while holding North Dakota State to 148 and had 180 yards passing to the Bisons’ 96 yards. Tailback Pat Clements gained 101 yards to pace the win. Defensive tackles Jesse Baker was named the top defensive player while Bobby Ray Green, JSU quarterback, was tabbed as the top offensive player. Each player was rewarded with a scholarship in their name by Chevrolet and ABC. Donald Young caught five passes for 92 yards to lead all receivers.
1977 Pioneer Bowl
Jacksonville State University fought Lehigh University on even terms for three quarters, but the powerful team from Pennsylvania finally wore down the smaller Gamecocks and went on to win 33-0 in the Pioneer Bowl Game in Wichita Falls, Texas. The game, which decided the Division II national championship, was played in sub-zero weather. Jax State also played without its starting quarterback, Bobby Ray Green, the final three quarters as he left with a head injury. Lehigh quarterback Mike Rieker, an All-
American, showed why he made the AllAmerican squad as he passed for two touchdowns and ran for another. He amassed 305 yards of total offense for the day. Lehigh’s defense also played a fine game, forcing six turnovers.
1970 Orange Blossom Classic
Jacksonville State University’s 21-7 victory over Florida A&M in the Orange Blossom Classic in Miami, Fla., will go down in the history as one of the top victories in Gamecock football history. The victory was not an upset. If fact, the Jaxmen were favored. But, the fact it was played before 35,000 fans on television and climaxed a perfect 10-0 season, made the victory especially sweet. As expected, Boyce Callahan was the start of the show. The dazzling freshman won Most Valuable Player honors with a recordsmashing 222 yards in 32 carries. It was not his best effort of the year, because he ran for 275 yards in the homecoming game earlier against North Alabama. Jacksonville State jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first half on a one-yard run in the first quarter, but had to rally in the final period to take the victory. Callahan, after a beautiful 39-yard

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.
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 off the clock to keep their offense off the field. And our defense made the big plays.”
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 cannot defend. The Gamecocks enter a compliance period on the way to reclassification to Division I-AA.
At the end, Jacksonville State had posted 24 first downs, 23 of them rushing and one 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.
“If its all right with you,” said Jacksonville State 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 as 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 one came on a 38-yard Hutchins to Ray Staten pass that gave Pitt a 13-3 lead with 9:14 left in the second quarter.
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, so on their final drive, they needed a touchdown, for a field goal wouldn’t be 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

THE OHIO VALLE Y CONFERENCE Now in its 70th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. In May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which began competition in the 201213 academic year. The addition of Belmont gave the OVC 12 members, the most the league has had at one time in its illustrious history. The move added a second team in the city of Nashville and was the first addition to the league since Southern Illinois University Edwardsville joined in 2008. Subsequently, the league has shown its stability over the past decade, seeing only one member institution depart over the past 17 years. The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commissioner in league history on July 28, 2009. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences. The OVC’s proud history dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles “Turkey” Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations director at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged February 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions combined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC. In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black

student. In 1958 Marshall Banks earned athletically-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961 Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic opportunities to African-Americans. After Title IX legislation passed in 1972, women’s athletics began a rebirth on the national scene as the NCAA began sponsoring and marketing women’s sports. Recognizing the need to provide increased opportunities for female athletes, the OVC began formulating plans for women’s athletics in 1975 and established women’s championships in the sports of basketball, tennis and track in 1977, with cross country and volleyball added over the next four years. Those sports were initially governed by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW), but the overall strength of women’s programs in the league was demonstrated by the automatic bids the OVC instantly received when the NCAA became the governing body in 1982. The conference added women’s golf and softball in 1994 and women’s soccer in 1998.
