JSU won the OVC football championship with a perfect 8-0 record in OVC play, the second-straight unbeaten league season by JSU on the gridiron. The Gamecocks then became the first OVC team to play in the FCS National Championship Game since 1982. John Grass was the AFCA National Coach of the Year and Eli Jenkins was the OVC Offensive Player of the Year. The Gamecocks also won the OVC softball crown with a perfect 26-0 conference record. JSU became the second team in OVC history to go unbeaten in league play and the first since 1994 and then advanced to the championship game of the NCAA Auburn Regional. JSU swept the OVC postseason honors, with Jana McGinnis being named OVC Coach of the Year, Ella Denes OVC Player of the Year and Whitney Gillespie OVC Pitcher of the Year.

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.
COACHES
The Jacksonville State broadcast team will be led by one of the most experienced crews in the Ohio Valley Conference.
Hammett spent 11 years as color analyst on the Gamecock Football Network from 1992-2002, and served as color analyst on the Gamecock home television broadcasts from 2005-11.

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 booths, radio and television broadcast facilities, and a game management booth. The stadium was also expanded and now includes 24,000 seats.
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.
REVIEW
Since opening in 1946, Jacksonville State has posted an incredible 265-99-8 record at home.
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.
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 as Burgess-Snow Field is 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.
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.
Improvements in 2007 included two new scoreboards and the addition of “Gamecock Vision” a new video replay scoreboard. It is located in the east end zone 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.
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.
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.
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 68th season there this year.

John Grass begins his third season as head coach of the Gamecocks and his fourth season at JSU after what has been an unprecedented three 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 23-4 record over two 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 two years, he has been named the AFCA’s Region Coach of the Year twice and was the organization’s National Coach of the Year in 2015. 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. A 1990 graduate of JSU, Grass served as a head coach at the high school level for over 17 years and compiled a 122-61 career record along the way. He is now 23-4 as a collegiate head coach in two seasons that each saw him named the Roy Kidd OVC Coach of the Year, as well as the Region 3 Coach

Year two in Jacksonville and his first year as the team’s head coach saw more the same output on the offensive side of the ball but unprecedented success within the OVC. They compiled a 10-2 record and a perfect 8-0 record in OVC play to claim JSU’s fourth OVC title and its first outright since 2004. The Gamecocks entered the FCS playoffs ranked No. 2 in the polls and as the No. 3 national seed before falling in the second round to Sam Houston State.
HISTORY OVC
His third season with the Gamecocks saw Grass raise the bar even higher. The 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.
RECORDS
James ran for 1,151 yards and scored 14 touchdowns, ending his illustrious career as JSU’s second leading rusher and just one rushing score shy of the school record in that category. James, Sigler, Hough and Holcombe headlined a class of 18 All-OVC mentions at season’s end, the most in school history.
REVIEW
The defensive side of the ball thrived under Grass’ leadership, as well in 2014. Junior Devaunte Sigler was named the OVC’s Defensive Player of the Year, the first Gamecock to earn the honor, and joined cornerback Jermaine Hough and center Max Holcombe on numerous All-America teams, while offensive lineman Justin Lea garnered Freshman All-America honors.
OPPONENTS
The Gamecocks capped the year ranked ninth in both polls after the second 6,000-yard season in school history. JSU gained 6,129 yards in just 12 games, a schoolrecord 510.8 yards per game that was more than 68 yards per game more than any team had managed in JSU history.

Freshman receiver Josh Barge was also a Freshman All-American after setting new JSU freshman records for catches (58) and receiving yards (885). He led a corps of 19 different JSU players to catch at least one pass during the season.
COACHES
A quick-strike attack that scored 24 times on drives of less than one minute, the Gamecock offense amassed 6,637 yards of total offense, 1,755 yards more than any team in school history, and racked up 528 points, 107 more than the previous record set in 1991. JSU’s 65 touchdowns were a new school record, while its school record 48 rushing touchdowns also broke the OVC mark.
The ground game wasn’t the only thing that guided the Gamecocks in 2013. Despite having to start three different starting quarterbacks because of injuries during the season, Grass’ offense threw for a school record 3,033 yards. Quarterback Eli Jenkins earned Freshman All-America honors after throwing for 887 yards and running for 953 more, while junior Max Shortell threw for 1,608 yards to earn Second Team All-OVC recognition.
GAMECOCKS
Grass’ offense was record breaking in every phase and highlighted a season that saw the Gamecocks set a total of 49 school records, 13 Ohio Valley Conference records and three NCAA records.
James also set a JSU and OVC record with five rushing touchdowns at Austin Peay and joined teammates Eli Jenkins, Troymaine Pope and Miles Jones to become the first foursome to each run for 100 yards in the same game in FCS history against Jacksonville on Sept. 7.
OUTLOOK
His 2013 season as JSU’s offensive coordinator exceeded all expectations. His offensive unit was the most prolific in JSU history, breaking school records en route to helping the Gamecocks post an 11-4 record and advance to the Quarterfinals of the FCS Playoffs. JSU rolled over No. 16 Samford, 55-14, in the first round before a convincing 31-10 win at No. 6 McNeese State in the second round.

Kevin Revis
Assistant Coach Offensive Line • First Season
Kevin Revis begins his first season as the Gamecocks’ offensive line coach and his third season with the program. 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 two years at JSU has been involved with two Ohio Valley Conference championships and an impressive 23-4 combined record that includes a perfect 16-0 mark in OVC play. He 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, Justin Lea and Casey 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. 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.

GREG SEITZ
G
ATHLETIC DIRECTOR
reg Seitz was named Director of Athletics at Jacksonville State by President Dr. John M. Beehler on February 26, 2016 after more than two decades of service to the University.
Seitz, who is in his 24th year in the athletic department at JSU, served as interim Athletic Director for 14 months, marking his third term as the interim Athletic Director for the Gamecock athletic department.
“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 18 months 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 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. In the classroom, the Gamecock studentathletes posted an impressive 3.11 cumulative grade-point average for last year, marking the fourth-straight year the student-athletes have achieved this outstanding honor. Additionally, 14 of the 17 sports at Jax State posted a team grade point average higher than a 3.0, while the Gamecock football team claimed the OVC Team Academic Honor for the second straight year.
104
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 two years, claiming backto-back 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.
“Greg Seitz has been a loyal employee who has stepped in to head the Athletic Department in critical times and he is deserving of this opportunity,” said Mr. Jim Bennett, chairman of the JSU Board of Trustees. “His proven ability to network with other universities and the NCAA is a valuable asset to JSU.” Seitz has been instrumental in many of the facility upgrades at Jacksonville State, including renovations at 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 Gamecocks’ home dugout will be located along the third-base line and adjacent to a new clubhouse that will feature a locker room, lounge, team meeting area and athletic training treatment area. The clubhouse will be attached to an enclosed training facility that will allow for batting and pitching workouts. New stepdown team dugouts, bullpens, new coaches offices and meeting space will also be included in the project.
“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 recently named to the NCAA FCS Football Committee in 2016. He also serves as a site representative for the NCAA during the Baseball Regionals and Super Regionals.
He has also worked numerous NCAA Championships and Alabama High School Athletic Association events over the last 23 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.

TEMPERATURE: 85
WIND: E 2
WEATHER: Partly Cloudy
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – Jacksonville State got the test it wanted to kick off the 2015 season and passed with flying colors. Facing a top 10 FCS opponent before the third-largest crowd in Finley Stadium history, the seventh-ranked Gamecocks marched 79 yards for the go-ahead score and then turned to their defense to preserve a 23-20 win over No. 8 Chattanooga in the season opener for both. The Mocs, the reigning Southern Conference champions and an FCS playoff quarterfinalist in 2014, had taken their final lead when Montrell Pardue stripped JSU’s Troymaine Pope and returned it 55 yards for a touchdown for a 20-16 lead with 8:16 remaining. The Gamecocks responded with a drive that showcased the leadership and poise of junior quarterback Eli Jenkins and the depth of their running game.
SEPTEMBER 12, 2015 - AUBURN, ALA.
Jacksonville State moved 79 yards in 10 plays, twice converting fourth downs in Chattanooga territory. Miles Jones leaped over the line for a 1-yard TD run and Connor Rouleau kicked the extra point to make it 23-20 with 2:41 left.
AUBURN – Most of the sellout crowd at Jordan-Hare Stadium assumed they were coming to watch No. 6 Auburn cruise to an easy win over an FCS opponent and see the debut of Jordan-Hare Stadium’s $13 million video board.
The game ended as Darius Jackson sacked UTC quarterback Jacob Huesman.
What they witnessed came close to being one of the biggest upsets in college football history.
“The game was everything it was billed to be with two great teams going at it,” said Jacksonville State coach John Grass, who team extended its regular-season win streak to 11. “It was a physical, physical football game.
Jacksonville State (1-1), No. 5 in FCS but a five-touchdown underdog, led by a touchdown with less than a minute remaining. Auburn tied the score with 39 seconds in regulation, then scored on its first possession in overtime to claim a 27-20 victory on Saturday in the first meeting between the state schools.
“That last touchdown drive showed the maturity of our football team and how far Eli Jenkins has come.” The Jenkins-led JSU offense recorded 411 total yards, with 298 on the ground. Pope rushed for a career-high 173 yards on 15 carries, while transfer Josh Clemons had 67. Rouleau hit field goals of 34, 35 and 32 yards. Jacksonville State never led in the first half. The Gamecocks took their first lead by taking the second-half kickoff and moving 57 yards in 11 plays, with Rouleau kicking a 35-yard field goal for a 13-10 lead. That lead didn’t last long, however. The Mocs answered with a time-consuming drive of their own to tie the score at 13-13. Henrique Ribeiro’s 33-yard field goal at the 4:47 mark to finish off a 12-play, 59-yard drive that chewed up 5 minutes, 37 seconds. The Gamecocks (1-0) face their lone FBS opponent of 2015 when they travel to the Plains to face Auburn (1-0) at Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday. It will be the first meeting ever between JSU and the Tigers. SCORE BY QUARTERS

JACKSONVILLE STATE GAMECOCKS FOOTBALL 2016
“We’re definitely not satisfied,” said head coach John Grass after the Gamecocks out-gained 438-401 and dominated time of possession. “We felt like could have won the game. We left some plays out there and we definitely could have won.” The Gamecocks made the 108-mile trip to the Plains a memorable one. Jacksonville State led 10-6 at halftime and dominated the Tigers (2-0) in every phase, leaving the capacity crowd of 87,451 stunned. Auburn regained the lead early in the third on a 51-yard touchdown pass from Jeremy Johnson to former Oxford High School star Roc Thomas, but Connor Rouleau tied the contest at 13-13 with 10:43 left in the fourth with a 26-yard field goal. An 11-play, 56-yard drive for the go-ahead touchdown was set up by linebacker Dawson Wells’ interception of Johnson, one of two by the opportunistic Gamecock defense. Troymaine Pope finished it off by running the last five yards and Rouleau tacked on the extra point to put JSU ahead 20-13 with 5:38 left. Jacksonville State’s offense – which had moved the football up and down the field for much of the day – couldn’t muster a much-needed first down after Randy Robinson recovered Thomas’ fumble at the JSU 13 at the 3:06 mark, giving Auburn one last chance to force overtime. Johnson found a leaping Melvin Ray in the end zone on third-and-7 from JSU’s 10 with 39 seconds left in regulation and Daniel Carlson’s kick made it 20-20. Grass opted to have quarterback Eli Jenkins take a knee in the waning seconds to send the game to overtime. Auburn scored first on its overtime possession when Peyton Barber ran in from the 4 for a 27-20 lead. Jacksonville State’s shot at forcing a second OT ended when Jenkins’ long pass to Barge on fourth down was caught out of bounds. “Give those guys credit,” said Auburn head coach Gus Malzhan. “We didn’t play our best, but they had something to do with it.” Jenkins and junior receiver Josh Barge were spectacular on the biggest stages of their college careers. Barge caught a school record 14 passes for 132 yards, including an 11-yard reception in the second quarter that gave Jacksonville State its first lead at 10-6. Jenkins set new career highs in completions (26) and pass attempts (43). His 43 passes marked the first time a Gamecock quarterback had thrown 40 passes in a game since Marques Ivory attempted 49 at Eastern Kentucky on Nov. 6, 2010. The Gamecocks out-gained Auburn 438-401 and held an edge of nearly 11 minutes in time of possession. SCORE BY QUARTERS

“They had a hard time running the football and we were able to rush for almost 350 yards,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “I was proud of how we handled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.”

Jacksonville State (2-1, 1-0) piled up 323 yards en route to a 21-0 halftime lead. It took a full quarter for the Gamecocks’ offense to begin clicking. Jenkins got Jacksonville State on the scoreboard first, tossing a 21-yard scoring pass to Markis Merrill with 14:47 left in the second quarter, Merrill’s first reception of 2015. Jenkins threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Josh Barge six minutes later for a 14-0 JSU lead. Tennessee State’s lone scoring opportunity in the first two quarters came when Ezra Robinson picked off a pass attempt by Jenkins and returned it 83 yards to end zone. But the Tigers (2-1, 0-1) were flagged for a pair of 15-yard penalties during the interception return, nullifying a touchdown. Ra’Shad Green intercepted TSU quarterback Ronald Butler on the ensuing possession. The Gamecocks got into the end zone three plays later, with Miles Jones running the last two yards for a touchdown. Connor Rouleau’s third extra point extend Jacksonville State’s lead to 21-0. Jenkins accounted for 185 total yards (116 passing, 69 rushing) in the first half while JSU’s defense was limiting the Tigers to 18 yards on 26 offensive plays. Rouleau’s 34-yard field goal to open the third quarter extended JSU’s lead to 24-0. But Tennessee State – which rallied from a two-score deficit in the fourth quarter of its season opener against Alabama State – got an 84yard touchdown pass from Butler to Patrick Smith and a 23-yarder to Isiah Jeffries-Freeman to draw to within 24-13 with 5:57 to go in the third. The 84-yard was the longest play allowed by a JSU defense since 2008. The visitors’ rally was short-lived, however. The Gamecocks scored two touchdowns in a 42-second span, another 2-yard run by Jones and a 1-yard run by Josh Clemons, to extend their lead to 38-13 entering the final period. Jacksonville State later tacked on a 22-yard field goal by redshirt freshman Cade Stinnett of Enterprise, the son of former Gamecock kicker Slade Stinnett (1989-92), who ranks fourth in school history with 287 career points.

#1 JACKSONVILLE STATE - 48 UT MARTIN - 41
SEPTEMBER 26, 2015 - MARTIN, TENN.
MARTIN, Tenn. — Every good team has at least one game a season when it struggles against an opponent to make the score closer than the game actually was. That is what happened to No. 1-ranked Jacksonville State at UT Martin Saturday afternoon. After having a commanding 28-point lead early in the fourth quarter, the Gamecocks held on to beat the Skyhawks 48-41 after UTM scored 21 unanswered to draw to within seven in the game’s closing minutes. “It was just a kind of long, bizarre game, that’s the only way I can describe it,” Jacksonville State head coach John Grass said. “I have to take my hat off to UT Martin though. I knew they were going to be ready to play and ready to battle, which they did. They played extremely hard and had a great game plan for us.” The win improves Grass’ overall record as Gamecock head coach to 13-3, tying Jim Blevins (started in 1965) for

the best 16-game start as a head coach in Jacksonville State history. It’s also the 11th consecutive game the Gamecocks have won against fellow Ohio Valley Conference opponents, with their last loss coming at Eastern Illinois on Nov. 16, 2013. Jacksonville State (3-1, 2-0) fell behind early in the first quarter after a Jackson Redditt 41-yard field goal put UT Martin ahead by three. He added a 38-yarder later in the quarter after a Troymaine Pope 8-yard touchdown run then a 21-yard touchdown completion from Eli Jenkins to Josh Barge put the Gamecocks ahead. The pass from Jenkins to Barge was the first of three touchdown toss from the redshirt junior quarterback to the Carrollton, Ga., native. Barge also hauled in a 9- and 17-yard touchdown pass later in the game. The three touchdown catches in the game tied the junior’s career-high and was only his second career multitouchdown game at JSU. He finished with nine catches for 107 yards to go along with the three touchdown receptions. Jenkins came up 34 yards short of his career-high in passing yards (288), but the Birmingham native finished the day 16-of-25 passing for 254 yards and three touchdowns. He also added a 1-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter. He became the first quarterback since Ryan Perrilloux to account for four touchdowns in a game. Jenkins (5,398) also moved past Maurice Mullins (5,138 from 2002-05) for sixth place and David Gulledge (5,339) for fifth place in Jacksonville State’s total offense list. He trails Perrilloux (5,339 from 2008-09) for fourth. Running back, and Kentucky transfer, Josh Clemons scored his second rushing touchdown since joining the Gamecocks when he ran into the end zone from four yards during the fourth quarter. UT Martin’s Jarod Neal did everything he could to help the Skyhawks earn the come-from-behind victory. The quarterback threw for 433 yards on 34-of-49 passing. He also threw for five touchdowns: 12-yarder to Carlos Williams, 63-yarder to William Tanner, 16-yarder to Rod Wright and a 39-yarder to Wright. “Their quarterback is really good,” Grass said. “With a lot of defensive linemen out, we just couldn’t get enough pressure and they had a good plan to get the ball out of his hand quick. We busted a few coverages, which isn’t typical of us, and couldn’t get off the field on third downs.” Anniston native Troymaine Pope ran for a game-high 159 yards on just 16 carries. He also added a 46-yard touchdown run to his first quarter score. UT Martin trailed 28-6 with three seconds left in the first half before Neal’s touchdown strike to Weathers brought the Skyhawks to within 15. UTM immediately opened the second half on a scoop-and-score by Terri Triplett to cut the deficit to eight, which was the closest it would come to the lead until the it trailed by seven at the end of the game.

#1 JACKSONVILLE STATE - 49 MISSISSIPPI VALLEY STATE - 7 OCTOBER 3, 2015 - JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – No. 1 Jacksonville State polished off the non-conference portion of its 2015 schedule with an impressive performance in less-than-ideal conditions. Eli Jenkins and Troymaine Pope ran for two touchdowns each in limited action as the Gamecocks routed Mississippi Valley State of the Southwestern Athletic Conference 49-7 at rainy Burgess-Snow Field on Saturday. Jenkins, Pope and most of the Jacksonville State (4-1) starters had called it a day by the time the Gamecocks built a 35-7 lead at half. JSU piled up 494 total yards, extending its school-record streak of consecutive games with at least 400 yards to 16. Jacksonville State’s defense did its part, intercepting four passes by the Delta Devils (0-5) and limiting the visitors from Itta Bena, Miss., to just 194 yards. Mississippi Valley State has now been outscored 265-49 this season. “This game came at the right time,” Jacksonville State head coach John Grass said. “We’re not going to try to score 70 points and worry about stats. We’re just not that type of team. We’ll take a 49-7 win.

“We got to play everybody on the sideline that we wanted to play and we got everybody in the game for the whole fourth quarter.” Jenkins, last week’s conference co-Offensive Player of the Week, accounted for three touchdowns – runs of 22 and 20 yards and a 14-yard TD pass to Ruben Gonzalez in the first quarter – and finished with 175 yards of total offense in only two quarters of work. He moved into fourth place on Jacksonville State’s career total offense list, passing Ryan Perrilloux (2008-09). Jenkins now has 5,573 yards for the Gamecocks. Pope had touchdown runs of 32 and 2 yards before yielding to his backups. The senior from Anniston eclipsed the 100-yard mark for the seventh time in his career, getting an even 100 on seven carries. The Ohio Valley Conference’s leading rusher is now averaging 122 yards per game. Josh Clemons added 98 yards on 13 rushes. He scored on a 12-yard touchdown run with 12:33 left in the third quarter and Bo Billups later ran in from the 1 for the Gamecocks’ final points. “It was a positive day for us, to see the guys come out and take care of business and not have a letdown this week,” Grass said. “It’s a good time to have an open week so we can get everybody healed up.” The Gamecocks’ defense, which held on in a 48-41 win at Tennessee-Martin a week earlier, shattered the school mark for most tackles for losses in a game with 18. The Delta Devils were 1-of-14 on third-down conversions. Jermaine Hough, Rashod Byers, Siran Neal and Lawon DeBardelaben each picked off an MVSU pass. Byers also blocked a punt with less than a minute remaining before halftime that set up Jenkins’ 20-yard touchdown run. SCORE BY QUARTERS

Junior quarterback Eli Jenkins threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score as the Gamecocks (5-1, 3-0 Ohio Valley Conference) reeled off their fourth straight win, thumping Tennessee Tech 42-13 at Tucker Stadium. The win marked Jacksonville State 12th straight victory against OVC opponents. The Golden Eagles fumbled the opening kickoff out of bounds at their 7, an indicator of things to come. Jacksonville State’s defense forced a three-and-out and the offense wasted little time finding the end zone, driving 61 yards in 10 plays. Jenkins finished the drive with a 4-yard TD pass to Dalton Screws to start the rout. Tennessee Tech (2-5, 1-3) was held to a pair of John Arnold field goals and a rushing TD with just over a minute left in the game, its lowest point total of the season. Jacksonville State piled up 619 yards, the sixth-highest total in school history. Jenkins was 18-of-27 passing for 184 yards and two touchdowns, the 4-yarder to Screws and 30 yards to Troymaine Pope in the second quarter, compiling a passer rating of 148.4. He has now thrown at least one touchdown pass in nine straight games and 15 of his last 16.

Jenkins also contributed to the scoring with a 40-yard run in the first quarter, finishing with 89 yards on 13 carries. “Eli looked sharp,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “He really ran the offense good coming off of the off week.” Arnold’s 43-yard field goal with 5:07 left in the first quarter drew TTU to within 7-3. But after an exchange of punts, Jenkins burst free on his 40-yard touchdown run to extend JSU’s lead to 14-3 with 1:12 to go in the first. Josh Clemons’ 3-yard run capped a 12-play, 72-yard drive as the Gamecocks pushed their lead to 20-6 midway through the second quarter.

OCTOBER 24, 2015 - CLARKSVILLE, TENN.
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Jacksonville State took care of business against winless Austin Peay and now can turn its attention to the most important game of the 2015 season. The No. 1-ranked Gamecocks (6-1, 4-0 in Ohio Valley Conference) ruined Austin Peay’s homecoming Saturday afternoon, pounding the Governors 27-7 for their fifth straight win and 13th in a row against OVC opponents. Jacksonville State established a school record for fewest total yards allowed (82) and limited Austin Peay to seven first downs. The victory sets up a highly-anticipated matchup at Burgess-Snow Field against No. 13 Eastern Kentucky (5-2, 4-0), which beat Tennessee State 45-21 on Saturday. The game will be televised on ESPN3 as the OVC Game of the Week. “It’s going to be a whale of a football game,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “It ought to be a great environment and we’re looking forward to having a packed house.”

OFFICIALS: Referee: Jeremy Parker; Umpire: Steve Lewis; Linesman: Neil Hughes; Line judge: Philip DeWitt; Back judge: Tom Hahs; Field judge: Brandon Harris; Side judge: Mike Sweatman;
Jacksonville State finished with 427 total yards, extending its school-record streak of games with at least 400 yards to 18.
TEMPERATURE: 71
Eli Jenkins’ streak of consecutive games with at least one touchdown pass ended at nine. The junior from Birmingham did not play in the second half after completing 18-of-26 passes for 189 yards. His 214 total yards in the first half moved him over the 6,000-yard milestone. Jenkins, Troymaine Pope and Miles Jones each ran for a first-half touchdown, and kicker Connor Rouleau bounced back from a shaky performance against Tennessee Tech last week with field goals from 30 and 28 yards. Jenkins threw on the Gamecocks’ first five offensive plays as JSU drove quickly into Austin Peay territory. Pope wrapped up the nine-play, 64-yard drive by running in from the Govs 10 with 10:51 left in the first quarter. Rouleau’s PAT gave Jacksonville State a 7-0 lead it never relinquished. Rouleau’s 30-yard field goal made it 10-0 with 4:27 to go in the first. The Gamecocks scored on their third straight possession early in the second quarter to extend the lead to 17-0. Josh Clemons got JSU into the red zone with a punishing 21-yard run to APSU’s 1, and Jones ran it in on the next play with 12:04 left in the second quarter. Rouleau’s second field goal, from 28 yards, and Jenkins’ 1-yard touchdown run sent the Gamecocks to the locker room at intermission with a comfortable 27-0 lead. “We played really well in the first half,” Grass said. “Overall, it was a good night.”

OCTOBER 31, 2015 - JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – Homecoming on the Jacksonville State campus saw the No. 1-ranked Gamecocks send a resounding message to any Ohio Valley Conference foe with hopes of unseating them as conference champions. Jacksonville State (7-1, 5-0 OVC) dominated from the opening kickoff and routed No. 13 Eastern Kentucky 34-0 before a homecoming crowd of 21, 988 at Burgess-Snow Field Saturday afternoon. It marks the second year in a row the Gamecocks posted a shutout against an OVC opponent on homecoming. The Colonels (5-3, 4-1) came in tied with the Gamecocks and Eastern Illinois atop the league standings, but had no answers as Jacksonville State raced to a 24-0 halftime lead and never let up. JSU can take another major step toward a second straight conference title next Saturday when it travels to face OVC co-leader Eastern Illinois (5-3, 5-0). The game will be televised on ESPN3 and kickoff is at 1 p.m.
Josh Barge and Anthony Johnson led JSU with six receptions apiece
“Ours guys just came out ready to play,” said Jacksonville State head coach John Grass. “It’s probably the best we have played all year, especially in the first half.”
SCORE BY QUARTERS
Nothing Eastern Kentucky tried offensively was successful against the opportunistic Jacksonville State defense. The Colonels were averaging 35.7 points per game, third-best among OVC teams, but never got inside the Gamecocks 23 and only crossed midfield twice.

JACKSONVILLE STATE GAMECOCKS FOOTBALL 2016
“Defensively, we just played so well. We played really great defense and this was probably the best we’ve played special teams-wise all year. We just dominated the game.” Eastern Kentucky was held to 175 total yards, with 39 of that coming on a run by Ethan Thomas in the second quarter. Eli Jenkins was masterful – again – at the helm of the Gamecocks offense, engineering three first-half touchdown drives. Jenkins finished with 342 total yards (324 passing, 18 rushing) and joined David Gulledge (198790) as the only quarterbacks in Jacksonville State history to surpass 2,000 career rushing yards. Jenkins also became the first JSU quarterback to throw for more than 300 yards since Marques Ivory on Nov. 3, 2012. Jacksonville State set the tone with a 96-yard scoring drive on its first possession. Jenkins hooked up with Barge three times on the 11-play drive, the final completion a 14-yard screen pass that saw the junior receiver leave an EKU defender grasping air as he eluded the tackle and ran into the end zone with 7:53 left in the first quarter. Linebacker Dawson Wells stepped in front of a Colonels’ pass and took the interception back 48 yards for a touchdown with 13:44 to go in the second quarter. Connor Rouleau kicked the extra point to extend the Gamecocks’ lead to 14-0. It became 21-0 four minutes later when Troymaine Pope scored from the 1 to finish off a seven-play, 70-yard drive. Rouleau tacked on JSU’s final points of the first half with a 41-yard field goal with 13 seconds remaining. Barge hauled in another Jenkins touchdown pass late in the third quarter, this one covering 26 yards, as the Gamecocks stretched their lead to 31-0. Barge finished with a game-high 158 yards on nine receptions. Rouleau’s 37-yard field goal with 5:23 left in the fourth made the final 34-0. SCORE BY QUARTERS

“This is probably the No. 2 team in the conference,” a relieved Jacksonville State head coach John Grass said. “It’s a big win. It takes a little bit of pressure off, but we want to win out.” Eli Jenkins connected with Dalton Screws on a 43-yard touchdown pass late in the third quarter, and the defense made the lead stand as Jacksonville State (8-1, 6-0) moved one more step closer to an OVC title. Screws’ spectacular touchdown catch in the back of the end zone – the longest reception of his career – broke open what had been a defensive slugfest. Jacksonville State saw its school-record streak of games with a least 400 total yards end at 19 with 385 yards against the Panthers. Jacksonville State, which entered the game ranked second nationally in total defense at 259.9 yards per game, limited Eastern Illinois (5-4, 5-1) to 239. The Gamecocks reeled off 21 points in 4 minutes, 12 seconds, the knockout blow coming when linebacker Dawson Wells intercepted a pass by Eastern Illinois quarterback Jalen Whitlow and returned it 35 yards for a touchdown with 11 minutes remaining. Wells’ second pick-six in two games extended JSU’s lead to 24-3.

#1 JACKSONVILLE STATE - 56 SOUTHEAST MISSOURI - 28
NOVEMBER 14, 2015 - JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – Josh Barge and his Jacksonville State teammates will be adding another piece of jewelry to their growing collection.
Following a scoreless first quarter, Nick Bruno kicked a 23-yard field goal to put Eastern Illinois ahead 3-0 at the 14:12 mark in the second quarter to complete a 16-play, 91-yard drive.
Barge, JSU’s junior receiver from Carrollton, Ga., etched his name in the record book as the No. 1 Gamecocks clinched their second straight Ohio Valley Conference championship with a 56-28 win over Southeast Missouri at Burgess-Snow Field.
Connor Rouleau answered with a 23-yard field goal with 15 seconds left before halftime to pull Jacksonville State even at 3-3. The three points marked the fewest Jacksonville State has scored in any first half since being blanked by Big Ten power Michigan State in the 2014 season opener.
Jacksonville State (9-1, 7-0) claimed its fifth OVC crown by extending its league winning streak to 16, now the longest conference streak among all FCS teams after Harvard lost to Penn on Saturday. It marks the first back-toback league titles for the Gamecocks since 2003-04, their first two seasons in the OVC.
Troymaine Pope ran for a game-high 114 yards on 21 carries. His 10-yard sweep around right end early the

SEMO scored twice in the fourth quarter after the Gamecocks had opened their largest lead, 49-14, with 10:24 remaining. LeMay, on in relief of Jenkins, scored on his two longest runs of the season on consecutive possessions. His 51-yard jaunt capped a three-play, 68-yard drive and increased JSU’s lead to 56-21.

#1 JACKSONVILLE STATE - 42 MURRAY STATE - 20
NOVEMBER 21, 2015 - JACKSONVILLE, ALA.
JACKSONVILLE – Junior quarterback Eli Jenkins rolled up more than 340 yards of total offense and scored five touchdowns to lead top-ranked Jacksonville State to a 42-20 victory over Murray State in the 2015 regular season finale. With the win the Gamecocks secured an outright Ohio Valley Conference Championship for the secondstraight year, improving to 10-1 overall and 8-0 in the OVC. Jenkins threw for 212 yards and two touchdowns on 15 of 30 passing, but it was his legs that put most of the points on the board, as he rushed for 130 yards on 11 carries and tied his career high with TD runs of seven, 24, and 65 yards. Josh Barge caught both touchdown passes and finished the game with seven catches for 92 yards. The two touchdowns gave Barge the single-season JSU record for touchdown receptions with 11, continuing a long line of receiving records for the junior, who already holds the career record for receptions (189) and is closing in on the record for receiving yards. His two touchdown catches on Saturday were his fifth career multitouchdown game, breaking Ronald Bonner’s school record of four. Senior linebacker Dawson Wells had 11 tackles to lead a Jax State defense that would finish the day with seven sacks for a total loss of 33 yards. Senior Chris Landrum, Sr., notched seven tackles, including a school-record 4.5 tackles for a loss, and forced a fumble. He had 2.5 sacks. The Sweet Water, Ala., native ran his career total to 33.5, breaking Warren Blair’s record of 32.0 from 1995-97. Senior Troymaine Pope made the most of his final regular-season start, rushing for 82 yards on 17 carries. He scored the first touchdown of the game on a 22-yard run with 7:49 left in the first quarter. He now has 1,092 yards on the season, moving from 15th to eighth on JSU’s single-season list, while his 2,680 career yards move him past Reginald Goodloe for fifth on the career list. Murray State responded with a 10-play drive that reached the JSU 10-yard line, but the defense held, and the Racers Connor Mitchell kicked a 27-yard field goal to cut the score to 7-3. The Gamecocks answered with a seven-play touchdown drive, highlighted by a 43-yard pass from Jenkins to Markis Merrill and capped by Jenkins’ seven-yard touchdown run. He would later connect with Barge on a 13-yard touchdown early in the second quarter to give JSU the 21-3 halftime lead. Despite the many superlatives for the Gamecocks, however, there was some uneven play that kept the outcome in doubt until late. In the second quarter, Jaylen Hill returned an interception 45 yards to give JSU possession at the Murray State 23, Jenkins threw his only pick of the day on the very next play when he was intercepted by DeQuinten Spraggins at the 10-yard line. The Gamecocks also lost two fumbles on the day, including one inside the five that was picked up by Racers lineman Demetrius Mason and returned one yard for Murray State’s first touchdown, cutting the JSU lead to 21-13 in the third quarter. The Gamecocks responded with a four-play drive that covered 82 yards and ended when Jenkins raced around the right to find the end zone from 24 yards out. He extended the lead again with a 27-yard pass to Barge in the third quarter, but Murray State would cut that lead again h with a 35-yard touchdown pass from KD Humphries to Dominique Rhymes. After the ensuing kickoff gave the Gamecocks the ball on their own 35, Jenkins would cap the scoring for the day with a 65-yard touchdown run, his longest of the season. Murray State (3-7, 2-6) finished with 398 yards of total offense, including 310 through the air. Humphries completed 22 of 45 pass attempts with one interception. SCORE BY QUARTERS

Troymaine Pope rushed for 234 yards – the second-highest single-game total in school history – and three touchdowns while Jenkins added 195 yards on the ground. Jenkins also contributed 208 through the air, accounting for 403 scrimmage yards, third-most in a game in JSU history. But it was an interception by Bender, a senior safety from McCalla, which kept the Gamecocks’ championship dreams intact. Jacksonville State won the coin toss in overtime and elected to start on defense. On the Mocs’ third play, Bender leaped and picked off a pass by UTC quarterback Jacob Huesman in the end zone, giving the Gamecocks possession at the 25 for their first series. “Earlier in the game, they got us with a throwback to the tight end, and that really triggered in my mind because I knew something like that coming again, it was too wide-open (the first time). The play as set up way too nice, so we just talked about it on the sideline that we knew it was coming again in the red zone.” Jenkins finished off the Mocs quickly. The junior quarterback rushed for 11 yards on first down, then eluded a couple of would-be tacklers and sprinted left to the end zone, setting off a raucous celebration in the stands and on the Jacksonville State sideline. Things looked bleak for the hosts after Chattanooga scored 28 points in a 22-minute span, taking a 35-28 lead with 8:35 left in regulation on a 39-yard pass from backup quarterback Alejandro Bennifield to Huesman. It was the first time Jacksonville State had trailed since falling behind 3-0 at Eastern Illinois on Nov. 7.

The Buccaneers closed the deficit to 10 points twice in the fourth quarter. But Connor Rouleau tacked on a late field goal and Pope finished his night with a 54-yard run with 2:16 remaining for the game’s final points. The Gamecocks led 13-10 at intermission behind Jenkins’ 14-yard touchdown pass to Dalton Screws and a pair of Rouleau field goals. Jacksonville State’s offense wasted little time scoring after the defense forced Charleston Southern to punt on the game’s opening series.

“I don’t think we could have played much better,” said Jacksonville State second-year head coach John Grass. “The first half was probably the best half of football I’ve ever been around.
“Obviously the mistake we made on the opening kickoff really hurt us,” said Sam Houston State coach K.C. Keeler. “You know when you’re in those games where you know the next one is the national championship, sometimes those things just multiply.” The Bearkats fumbled again on their next series, with E.J. Moss pouncing on the loose football at the JSU 15. The Gamecocks needed just five plays this time with Pope breaking free on a 62-yard scamper with 9:42 remaining in the first.
The lead became 31-0 following Miles Jones’ 3-yard TD and Jenkins’ 12-yard scoring pass to Ruben Gonzalez. Rouleau added a 22-yard field goal and Pope scored on a 7-yard run as Jacksonville State opened a 41-7 lead with 59 seconds left in the half. Sam Houston State never got closer than 31 points after halftime.
“I told Coach Grass when we shook hands that was as good of a football team as I’ve played and we’re hoping those guys go and win the national championship. They deserve it,” Keeler said of the Gamecocks. 1

#3 NORTH DAKOTA STATE - 37 #1 JACKSONVILLE STATE - 10 JANUARY 9, 2016 - FRISCO, TEXAS
FRISCO, Texas - The most successful season in Jacksonville State’s 22 years as a Football Championship Subdivision member did not end with a win. North Dakota State captured its unprecedented fifth straight FCS title Saturday afternoon at Toyota Stadium, riding a smothering defense and the right arm of senior quarterback Carson Wentz to a 37-10 victory over the No. 1 Gamecocks. Jacksonville State (13-2) – which boasted the No. 2 offense among all FCS teams at 529.9 yards per game – sputtered from the outset and trailed 24-0 by halftime. The Gamecocks managed to draw to within 24-10 on Connor Rouleau’s 26-yard field goal at the 3:41 mark in the third quarter, but the Bison (13-2) added a pair of Cam Pedersen field goals and a short touchdown run by game MVP Wentz to pull away in the waning minutes. Jacksonville State committed four turnovers and managed just 204 total yards, a season low and the fewest since 2006. The Gamecocks completed only seven passes for 57 yards. North Dakota State dominated time of possession in the first half en route to its 24-point lead. The Bison whittled nearly 6½ minutes off the clock on their opening possession, capping off a 15-play march with Pedersen’s 29-yard field goal for a 3-0 lead.

GAMECOCKS
Fumbles-Lost
Troymaine Pope was unstoppable again, rushing for 182 yards and one touchdown, while quarterback Eli Jenkins threw for 247 yards and two touchdowns while running for three more TDs.
Things continued to spiral downward for the Gamecocks over the 23 minutes. Wentz, rated one of the top quarterback prospects in the upcoming 2016 NFL draft, tossed an 8-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Bonnett and added an 11-yard run following a Jacksonville State turnover for a 17-0 lead with 11:13 to go in the second quarter. “We jumped on them quickly, which we thought was going to be a really big key,” said North Dakota State head coach Chris Klieman. King Frazier’s 1-yard run to cap a six-play, 48-yard drive increased NDSU’s lead to 24-0 at the 6:12 mark of the second quarter. The Gamecocks emerged from the locker room and quickly found the end zone to open the second half, moving from their 27 to the Bison 3 in eight plays. Quarterback Eli Jenkins set up the touchdown with a 46-yard run – by far JSU’s longest play of the afternoon – and finished off the drive with a 6-yard TD run to trim NDSU’s lead to 24-7 early in the third. The momentum continued to swing in Jacksonville State’s direction when Rashod Byers deflected a Wentz pass and linebacker Brandon Bender picked it off. Bender returned the interception 54 yards to the North Dakota State 13 to set up Rouleau’s 26-yard field goal. SCORE BY QUARTERS

G A M E CO C K R E CO R D S
BLACKIE HEATH - 1946 Blackie Heath was the first football player to grab All-America honors at Jacksonville State under Coach Don Salls, and he set the precedent for many to follow. Known for his blazing speed, Heath played tailback on the 1946 team and led the team in rushing and total offense. JOHN WILLIAMS - 1947 Fullback John Williams, a tough 185-pound
bulldozer of a runner, ripped his way for 997 yards to set a new standard in modern times for yards gained at Jacksonville State. The mark stood for seven years until another Gamecock All-America came along to clip the mark. During the 1947 campaign, the Gamecocks knocked off nine-straight foes, blanking five, and it was the fine running and leadership of one John Williams who led the way. John went on to become a Lt. Commander in the U.S. Navy.
JODIE CONNELL - 1953 When fans gather at Homecoming or whenever Gamecock football is the subject, the name of Jodie Connell always pops up in the conversation. Jodie, playing with only one arm, mastered everyone who dared line up in front in the 1953 season. He was a first-team Associated Press selection at the guard position
AL WOODHAM - 1954 Perhaps the fastest halfback to ever carry football at Jacksonville State, Al Woodham erased John Williams’ rushing record of 997 yards with a total of 1,024 yards in 1954. For his efforts, Woodham was chosen for All-American honors and earned the school’s first trip to the Blue-Gray Game in Montgomery, Ala.
BILLY HICKS - 1955 One of the really outstanding runners in Gamecock football history is All-American Billy Hicks. His finest hour came in the 1955 Refrigerator Bowl in Evansville, Ind., when he helped Jax State whip Rhode Island, 12-10, to give the Gamecocks a 10-1 record. Hicks, a giant of a man (6-2, 245), played a couple of seasons in the Canadian Football League after his career at Jacksonville State. JIM GLASGOW - 1957 At 6-5 and 235 pounds, Glasgow was one of the largest, toughest and fastest tackles in the country, and his fine play earned him AllAmerica honors.

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 63 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 AllAmericans 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.
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 played in 1994. Baker also played in the EastWest Shine game in 1979. Delvin Hughley (DB) participated in the 2000 Blue-Gray game in Montgomery. Quarterback Ryan Perrilloux was the first Gamecock selected to play in the Texas versus the Nation All-Star game following

the 2009 season. Curt Porter also 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, it’s the Troy State game. The rivalry dates back to 1924 and the two teams have met a total of 62 times, with Jax State holding a 33-28-2 lead in the series. JSU owns the longest win streak in the series, winning 13-straight in the series from 1954-66.
Bowl Games The Gamecocks have played in eight bowl games, dating back to the 1948 season. JSU has an all-time record of 6-2 in bowl games. Jax State first played in the 1948 Paper Bowl and defeated Troy State, 19-0. JSU returned 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.
Burgess-Snow Field at JSU Stadium Since Paul Snow Stadium opened in 1946, Jacksonville State has posted an incredible 265-99-8 record at home. JSU has the highest winning percentage and the most wins in the OVC since joining the league in 2003, posting a 58-14 record over the last 11 years.

Centennial Team
Coach Mayfield, 35, died in a tragic fire accident in Southgate, Ky., on May 28, 1977. He lost Jesse Baker his life trying to help others out of a burning club where he had gone to attend a retirement party for his mother, a school teacher retiring after 42 years. Coach Mayfield joined the JSU staff in 1969 as defensive coordinator, but moved to the offense in 1970. He became JSU’s head coach in 1974, winning the Gulf South Conference title his first season. He posted a 20-11-0 record during his three seasons as head coach. The Mayfield Room, which was named in is honor in 1978, is located in the Gamecock Field House.
OPPONENTS
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
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.
GAMECOCKS
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. JSU’s Joe Hartsfield earned the honor in JSU’s 24-14 win over Alabama State on Oct. 27, 1980. The Gamecocks’ last player to earn the award was Simon Shephard on December 4, 1982, when JSU lost 19-14 to Southwest Texas State in the NCAA Division II playoffs.
OUTLOOK
Improvements in 2007 included two new scoreboards and the addition of “Gamecock Vision” a new video replay scoreboard. It is located in the east endzone and features a 14’ x 24’ ProStar VideoPlus Display that is one of the largest in the OVC. The video replay system utilizes the V-Link 4000 Video Processor and the Venus 7000 Controler. On the Gamecock Field House, a new scoreboard was installed as Paul Snow Stadium becomes the only school in the OVC with two scoreboards.

INTRO
The stadium underwent renovations in 1976 with the addition of the east end zone and south sideline seats. The fieldhouse also also constructed at the west end zone to enclose the stadium and then in the summer of 2005, the natural playing surface was replaced with Pro-Grass synthetic surface.

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.

Six former Jacksonville State football members have been inducted into the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame. Former JSU great Dieter Brock and former coach Don Salls became the first Jax State inductees in 1992. Former All-American Jodie Connell was inducted in 1996, while former baseball coach and sports information director Rudy Abbott was elected in 2005. Former coach Charley Pell was inducted during the summer of 2011, while former NFL All-Pro Eric Davis was elected in 2013. Located in Birmingham, ASHOF honors the state’s sports legends.
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.

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.
HISTORY
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.

The Gamecock football program has had the chance to play 16 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 is the only school 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.

In the history of Jacksonville State football, only two numbers have been retired - No. 33 and No. 66. Boyce Callahan (33), an Anniston native, was a Little All-American. Callahan rewrote the record books in his four years at Jacksonville. He gained 1,293 yards as a freshman, which was the standard for a single season until 2003. He is the all-time career rushing leader with 4,327 yards and has the second-best single-gamer performance after rushing for 275 yards against North Alabama in 1970. 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.
This famous slogan is heard around the Jax State campus all year, especially during the Troy State game week. The phrase is credited to former JSU head football coach Charley Pell. The Gamecocks lost the 1969 game 37-6 to the Trojans and following the game, Coach Pell told his players in the dressing room that next season, the Gamecocks would “Whup Troy”. The following year, the Gamecocks did just that, taking the Trojans to the woodshed with a 55-10 JSU win enroute to a perfect 10-0 record and a victory in the Orange Blossom Classic.
The Road to Frisco
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 WEAC-TV 24 for all home games again this season.
Undefeated Seasons There has been a total of three in more than 110 years that Jax State has played football. The 1917 squad finished 9-0-1 and allowed just two points the entire season (JSU defeated Alabama Presbyterian, 6-2). The team posted seven shutouts. In 1947, the Gamecocks went 9-0, including a 7-0 win over Florida State. JSU was the only undefeated and untied team that season and posted five shut-outs. Charley Pell and the

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-

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

Jacksonville States defense it was fourth and forChuck Robinson ever. There could be no next year for the Gamecocks, no second chance.

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,

The Gamecocks chose to kick short this time, keeping the ball out of Moore’s hands, but gave Pitt the Ball just 52 yards from the goal. Seven Plays later Hutchins hit a diving Staten and it was a 13-3 game.
Then on the first possession of the second half the scoring ended. Jax State drove 71-yards on just 8 plays. Richardson went the final 5 and Stinnett kick to make it 17-13. Stinnett could have provided a cushion, but just missed field goal tries from 36 yards out and again from 43. Pitt got its last show with 2:41 left when Jacksonville missed by two inches on fourth down at the Pitt 23, and the defense had it’s back against forever.
So the frustration ended for Jacksonville State. In three previous championship games, dating to 1977, the Gamecocks had been shut out twice and had scored a grand total of six points in championship games.

THE OHIO VALLE Y CONFERENCE Now in its 69th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation’s eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. I n May 2011 the Conference expanded for the second time in four years, adding Belmont University which began competition in the 2012-13 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 16 years. T he 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. I n 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 AfricanAmericans. fter Title IX legislation passed in 1972, women’s A 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.
202
T hrough the past 68 years, 15 teams have won or shared the league’s football title. The list is led by Eastern Kentucky, winner of 21 outright or shared football crowns, which is tied for the most in Football Championship Subdivision history (with Massachusetts). Among OVC teams, former member Middle Tennessee is next with 11 titles, followed by Tennessee Tech with 10, and Murray State and former member Western Kentucky with eight apiece. Eastern Illinois has claimed seven football crowns and Jacksonville State has five, while Morehead State, Tennessee State and former members Evansville and East Tennessee State have captured two apiece. Austin Peay, Southeast Missouri, UT Martin and former member Youngstown State have one title apiece. urray State and Evansville tied for the initial footM ball championship, and the Racers participated in the first-ever bowl game by an OVC team, tying Sul Ross State 21-21 in the 1948 Tangerine Bowl. From 1948 to 1975, OVC teams played in 15 bowl games, winning eight of them. Eastern Kentucky and Western Kentucky were also participants in the NCAA Division II playoffs in the early and mid-1970s prior to the NCAA’s reclassification of football programs into Division I-AA. The term “I-AA” lasted until the end of the 2006 season when it was changed to Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). T he first Division I-AA/FCS football playoff was held in 1978 with only four teams, which is the only year through present day that the OVC did not field a playoff representative. In 1979, four of the nation’s top teams were invited to the playoffs, and two of them - Eastern Kentucky and Murray State - were from the OVC. Murray dropped its semifinal game to Lehigh, but the Colonels nipped Nevada-Reno in double overtime and claimed the national championship a week later with a 30-7 victory over Lehigh. EKU was coached by former All-America quarterback Roy Kidd, who was in his 16th year at the helm of his alma mater and who skippered the Colonels to a second national title three years later. Following the 2002 season, Kidd retired after 39 years at EKU; upon retirement, he ranked sixth all-time among Division I coaches with 315 victories, earning him a spot in the College Football Hall of Fame. EKU’s now 21 FCS playoff appearances are the second for the most all-time (behind only Montana’s 24 berths). I n addition to Kidd, other coaching legends in the OVC include Charles “Bubber” Murphy, who coached at Middle Tennessee from 1947-1968, Western Kentucky’s Jimmy Feix (1968-83), Wilburn Tucker (1954-67) and Don Wade (1968-82) of Tennessee Tech, Bill Ferguson (1967-77) of Murray State, Guy Penny (1959-67) of Morehead State and Boots Donnelly (1977-78 at Austin Peay; 1979-1998 at Middle Tennessee). Following the 2011 season Eastern Illinois head coach Bob Spoo retired after 25 years at the school (the last 16 as members of the OVC). In his time as an OVC coach he compiled 92 total victories (fifth-most in league history) and 68 OVC wins (fourth-most in league history) and was inducted into the OVC Hall of Fame in 2012. In 2016 former Murray State head coach Frank Beamer (1981-86) was inducted into the OVC Hall of Fame;
JACKSONVILLE STATE GAMECOCKS FOOTBALL 2016
he introduced his wide tackle six defense to the OVC and compiled a 43-23-2 record with the Racers before leaving for his alma mater Virginia Tech where he won 280 games of 29 seasons. sampling of former OVC football stars, some of A whom were All-Americans during their collegiate careers before achieving stardom at the professional ranks, include Jim Youngblood and Larry Schreiber (Tennessee Tech), Phil Simms (Morehead State), Virgil Livers and Dale Lindsey (Western Kentucky), Myron Guyton and Chad Bratzke (Eastern Kentucky), Cortland Finnegan (Samford) and Tony Romo and Jimmy Garoppolo (Eastern Illinois). In 2008, former Tennessee State standout Dominique RodgersCromartie became just the fourth NFL First Round draft pick in OVC history when he was selected 16th overall by the Arizona Cardinals. He would break into the starting lineup halfway through his rookie season and started at cornerback for the Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII. T he 2007 season marked a return to scholarship football and the OVC for the Austin Peay Governors. Following the 1996 season the Governors dropped scholarship football and competed as both an independent (1997-00, 2006) and as a member of the Pioneer Football League (2001-05). T he 2007 season also brought new vernacular to the Ohio Valley Conference and the division formerly known as I-AA. Beginning with the 2006 National Championship game the term I-AA was changed to NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) in a decision by the Division I Board of Directors. The new label was chosen to communicate in a positive and clear manner the unique differences between Division I football categories (chiefly, the post-season opportunity) while still defining them within the Division I experience. The FCS includes programs that compete in an effort to participate in the NCAA championship postseason structure (one of 90 NCAA national championships) as opposed to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) which competes in an effort to participate in the postseason bowl system (the 41 NCAA-licensed events which includes the College Football Playoff). I n 2010 Southeast Missouri State, picked to finish seventh in the preseason poll, compiled a 7-1 Conference record on the way to its first OVC Championship since joining the league in 1991. Overall the Redhawks were 9-2 during the regular season and earned a berth in the FCS Playoffs, its first playoff berth at any level in the program’s 104-year history. Southeast would lose to eventual national champion Eastern Washington in the second round of the playoffs. Head coach Tony Samuel capped the year by winning the Sports Network’s Eddie Robinson Award, given to the National Coach of the Year. Samuel was the second OVC coach to win the award (joining Murray State’s Houston Nutt who won the award in 1995). F or only the second time in league history in 2011, three teams shared the OVC football championship, as Eastern Kentucky, Jacksonville State and Tennessee Tech finished with 6-2 records.

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. 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 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.
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.
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. 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. 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.
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.

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.
