With the 14-7 win at UT Martin last week, the Gamecocks extended their OVC win streak to a league-record 31 games. The longest active conference win streak in all of Division I football broke EKU's previous record of 26-straight OVC wins from 1992-95.

He was again named the AFCA’s Regional Coach of the Year in 2016. He served as JSU’s offensive coordinator on Bill Clark’s staff in 2013 before being promoted to the head coach after one season. Prior to coming to JSU in 2013, Grass was head coach at Oxford (Ala.)High School from 2008-2012, where he posted five straight winning sea-sons and a 41-16 record. He also served as head coach at Spain Park from 2006-07, where he was named the 2007 AHSAA Class 6A Coach of the Year.

Grass In Uncharted FieldsJSU head coach John Grass has found himself in a territory not many coaches have ever gone. His 42-7 record is the best start in JSU history by a head coach and second to North Dakota State’s Chris Klieman for the best start to an FCS career by any coach. Grass became the first coach in FCS history to go 16-0 in his first two years of conference play to start his coaching career and has improved that start to 30-0 in league play, the best league start in NCAA history.

Bridges Taking Them AwaySophomore Marlon Bridges is one of the best in the nation at creating turnovers, and the numbers show it. After his 73-yard interception return for a touchdown against Eastern Kentucky, Bridges now has 11 career takeaways. He has six interceptions and five forced fumbles and ranks seventh among all active FCS players in forced fumbles per game (0.23) and 16th in interceptions per game (0.27).

Flowers Takes One To The HouseJunior De’Marcus Flowers recorded his first kickoff return for a touchdown on Oct. 7 at Austin Peay and it couldn’t have come at a better time. The Govs had just cut JSU’s lead to 13 early in the fourth quarter before the Daleville, Ala., native took the ensuing kickoff 87 yards for a score and took the air out of the crowd at Peay’s Fortera Stadium. His return was the first for a touchdown by a Gamecock since Oct. 22, 2011, when Gabriel Chambers returned one 99 yards for a score at Kentucky.

Terry’s Big Day at TTUJunior Demontez Terry had a huge day in the Gamecocks’ Sept. 30 win at Tennessee Tech. The Birmingham native entered the day with just 92 receiving yards through the first three games, but he hauled in a career-high eight catches for a career-best 160 yards and his first score of the season in the game. His 160 yards were the ninth-most in a game by a Gamecock in their Division I history and the most by a JSU player since Alan Bonner had 235 at UT Martin on Nov. 3, 2010. The eight catches were the most by a Gamecock since Josh Barge had eight vs. SEMO on Nov. 5, 2015.

Record Crowd Watches 2017 Home OpenerThe Gamecocks’ home opener vs. No. 16 Liberty on Sept. 23 was witnessed by a record number of JSU fans. The attendance of 23,944 that saw JSU roll past the Flames set a new Burgess-Snow Field record. The previous record for attendance in the stadium that opened in 1946 was 23,692 against Sam Houston State in the semifinals of the 2015 FCS Playoffs.

Jackson All Over TTU BackfieldSenior defensive end Darius Jackson had one of the best games of his career as far as making plays in the backfield on Sept. 30 at Tennessee Tech. The Bessemer native notched a career-high 4.0 tackles for a loss in the game, tying for the second-most in a game in school history and just short of Chris Landrum’s school record of 4.5. The 4.0 tackles for a loss were also tied for the sixth-most in a game by any player in FCS so far this season.

Doss Steps In, Completes PassesJunior quarterback Kendrick Doss got an oppor-tunity in the Gamecocks’ Sept. 30 win at Tennessee Tech and took advantage of it. The Florence, Ala., native came off of the bench to complete 11-of-13 passes for 196 yards and his first two career touch-down passes to lead JSU to an explosive second half. His 196 passing yards gave him his first career passing game, while his 246.6 passing efficiency rat-ing in the game was the third-best in school history.Below are top single-game pass efficiency ratings in JSU history:1. 277.6 Ryan Perrilloux (10/3/99 vs UTM)2. 260.5 Tim Gallahan (9/17/99 vs Union)3. 246.6 Kendrick Doss (9/30/17 at TTU)4. 239.8 Marquez Ivory (10/23/10 vs APSU)5. 235.4 Ryan Perrilloux (10/18/08 vs MUR)

Barry Goes 80 For SixTrue freshman tight end Trae Barry hauled in an 80-yard touchdown reception on Sept. 23 against Liberty, his first career touchdown catch. The toss from Bryant Horn gave Barry, a Summerdale, Ala., native, the seventh-longest catch in JSU history and the second-longest by a freshman. Telvin Brown’s 86-yard TD catch as a true freshman in 2012 is the only one longer by a freshman at JSU.

Gamecocks Fan Flames OffenseIn the Gamecocks’ home opening 31-10 win over No. 16 Liberty, the JSU defense limited what had been a potent Liberty offense through its first three games. Liberty entered the game averaging 536 yards per game of total offense and 152 yards rush-ing per contest. The Gamecocks held the Flames to just 316 total yards and only 31 yards on the ground in handing the Flames their first loss of the year.

JSU Debuts New Video BoardWhen JSU opened its home schedule vs. Liberty on Sept. 23, the East End Zone at Burgess-Snow Field looked a little brighter.

2017 Jacksonville State FOOTBALL GAME NOTES

8 CHAMPIONS • 2003 • 2004 • 2011 • 2014 • 2015 • 2016 • 2017

Stinnett From DeepJunior Cade Stinnett came through from long range in the Gamecocks’ home opener vs. No. 16 Liberty. The Enterprise, Ala., native drilled a 49-yard field goal late in the first half that beat his previous long, a 48-yarder made vs. Eastern Illinois in 2016. His 49-yard make tied the seventh-longest field goal in JSU history and was the longest by a Gamecock since Griffin Thomas’ school-record 52-yard field goal in 2013.In JSU's win at EIU on Oct. 21, he drilled a 50-yarder, tying for the sixth-longest in school history and just the seventh of 50 yards or more in JSU history.

Bridges Has Big Freshman SeasonRedshirt sophomore Marlon Bridges has shown a knack for taking the ball away from opposing of-fenses in just his second season of collegiate action.He was a huge part of the Gamecocks’ defensive success last season. The Lanett, Ala., native led the team in tackles with 87 and tied for the FCS lead with five forced fumbles. He also had four interceptions, the third-most interceptions in FCS by a freshman last season.He already has two interceptions this season, giving him 11 takeaways in just 21 career games, while he also leads the team in tackles yet again.

Thomas named National Player of the WeekRoc Thomas got his 2017 season off to a big start, grabbing FCS National Offensive Player of the Week honors from the NCAA. The senior from Oxford re-ceived the honor after guiding the Gamecocks to a convincing 27-13 win over No. 12 Chattanooga in the Guardian Credit Union FCS kickoff in Montgomery. Thomas had 190 all-purpose yards, 122 on the ground and 68 receiving, and scored the game’s first touchdown on a 76-yard run in the second quarter. He also earned OVC Player of the Week.

Hagler’s First Start Draws AttentionIn his first start for the Gamecocks at the SLB posi-tion, senior Jonathan Hagler put on a show for a national audience. In the season opening Guardian Credit Union FCS Kickoff against No. 12 Chattanooga on ESPN, the Leeds native grabbed his first career in-terception and returned it 52 yards for a third-quarter touchdown that broke the game open. He was later named the OVC’s Defensive Player of the Week, thanks to four tackles and a pass breakup.

Gamecocks Off To Early StartIf JSU’s season opener against Chattanooga seemed early, it’s because it was. The Aug. 26 kickoff was the earliest start to a season in JSU history, surpassing an Aug, 28 opener at Georgia Tech in 2008. It was just the seventh time JSU has played in the month of August, all of which have come since 2001. JSU

is now 5-2 in August games, with the losses coming to Georgia Tech (2008) and Michigan State (2014).

Several New Faces in Season OpenerJacksonville State played 65 players in the Aug. 26 season opening win over Chattanooga, with 22 of those making their Jacksonville State debut that night. That means 34 percent of JSU’s participants in the UTC game were suiting up in the Red and White for the first time. Those players debuting for JSU in the opener were: OL Nate Archie, OL BJ Autry, TE Trae Barry, SAF Antonio Bostic, Jr., TE Dakota Chapman, DT Connor Christian, TE Austin Cummins, WR Satchel Goodrich, LB Bryce Handy, DL Jalyn Johnson, SAF Darius Joiner, PK Jake Lane, RB Michael Matthews, CB Freddie Montgomery, Jr., OL David Neece, SLB Lewis O’Neal, CB Jacquez Payton, WR Landon Smith, WR Penny Smith, OL Hunter Sosebee, RB Tramel Terry, and CB Li’Cedric Varner.

Jackson Breaks Sack RecordWith his first quarter sack of TTU’s Michael Birdsong on Oct. 8, 2016, defensive end Darius Jackson became JSU’s career sacks leader. He now has 26.5 sacks at JSU, breaking the school’s career record of 16.0, set by Chris Landrum (2013-15) and Warren Blair (1995-97).

Who’s That In The Starting Lineup?The Gamecocks had nine first-time starters in their season opener vs. Chattanooga, seven on offense and two on defense. Earning the first start of their careers in the first game of 2017 were: OL Darius Anderson, OL BJ Autry, TE Trae Barry, TE Dakota Chapman, DT Connor Christian, WR Shaq Da-vidson, SLB Jonathan Hagler, QB Bryant Horn and OL Tyler Scozzaro.

Gamecocks At Home in Top 10When the latest polls were released, the Gamecocks found themselves in familiar territory. JSU is current-ly ranked second in the STATS FCS Top 25 and second in the FCS Coaches Poll. JSU has now been in the top 10 of at least one of the two major FCS Polls for 57 consecutive weeks, a streak that was started with the final polls of the 2013 season. JSU and North Dakota State are the only two teams that have been in the Top 10 for each of the last 57 weeks.

Three Gamecocks Named Preseason All-AmericansJacksonville State has seen three of its own honored as Preseason All-Americans by multiple outlets over the summer. Senior defensive end Darius Jackson, senior offensive lineman Justin Lea and sophomore safety Marlon Bridges have each received multiple Preseason All-America mentions leading up to the 2017 season:

JSU Returns to ESPNJSU's Week Zero win over Chattanooga in the Guard-ian Credit Union FCS Kickoff matchup on ESPN was the Gamecocks' first appearance on the network’s top station since the 1992 Division II National Champi-onship Game. All-time, JSU is now 2-2 on ESPN, with that 1992 title game being its other win – a 17-13 win over Pittsburg State. The other two appearances were losses in the 1989 and 1991 Div. II National Championship Games.

Grass Named OVC and Region Coach of the Year. Again. And Again.JSU head coach John Grass continues to make history on the sidelines for the Gamecocks. After becoming the first FCS Coach to begin his career with back-to-back perfect seasons in 2014 and 2015, he ran the OVC table again in 2016 to win his third-straight OVC title and his third-straight Roy Kidd OVC Coach of the Year Award. The OVC Coach of the Year award is named after Eastern Kentucky legend Roy Kidd, a member of the College Football Hall of Fame, who won the award a record 10 times during his career (1964-2002) and retired with 314 victories, the second-most in I-AA/FCS history.Grass became the first person to win the OVC Coach of the Year Award outright in three-straight seasons, and then was recognized by the AFCA as its Region 3 Coach of the Year for the third-straight season. He was named the AFCA’s National FCS Coach of the Year in 2015 and was a finalist for that honor in 2014 and 2016. His 2015 honor made him the first OVC coach

to ever win the AFCA’s top coaching honor and made him the first JSU National Coach of the Year since Bill Burgess was the Division II winner in 1992.

JSU Duo on Buchanan Watch ListSenior defensive end Darius Jackson and soph-omore safety Marlon Bridges were two of the 21 players named to the watch list for the award given to the top defensive player in FCS at season's end. The duo makes JSU one of just two teams with two players on the list, joining North Dakota State as the other.The Buchanan Award, first awarded in 1995, has sent past winners such as Dexter Coakley, Rashean Mathis, Jared Allen, Arthur Moats and Kyle Emanuel on to the NFL. Northern Iowa defensive end Karter Schult was the 2016 recipient. Jackson finished fourth in the voting in 2016.

JSU Back In Top 5Prior to the 2016 season, Jacksonville State had never found itself in the Preseason Top 5 at the Division I level. That changed in 2016, when the Gamecocks were No. 3 in both the Coaches and the STATS Pre-season Top 25. The Coaches have JSU in their Top 5 again in 2017, voting the Gamecocks fifth in their preseason rankings.JSU is currently second in the STATS and second in the coaches poll, making it 39-straight weeks in the top 6 of at least one poll, joining NDSU as the only FCS teams in the top six for that stretch.

Gamecocks Picked to Win OVC, 9 on Preseason All-OVC TeamJacksonville State is picked to win its fourth-con-secutive Ohio Valley Conference title, while senior defensive end Darius Jackson is predicted to repeat as the league's Defensive Player of the Year.Including Jackson's defensive nod, a confer-ence-best nine Gamecocks received Preseason All-OVC honors. The offensive team features seniors Roc Thomas (RB), Justin Lea (OL) and Dylan Cline (OL), while the defensive team is populated by Jackson (DE), Randy Robinson (DL), Siran Neal (LB), Joel McCandless (LB), Marlon Bridges (SAF) and Reggie Hall (CB).Jacksonville State garnered 128 points and the league's other 16 first-place votes in the team poll. UT Martin finished second in voting with 107 points and two first-place votes. JSU received 32 more points than third-place Tennessee State and 47 more points than fourth-place Eastern Illinois.Jackson is predicted to be the OVC's top defensive player for the second-consecutive campaign and is one of nine Gamecocks to receive preseason all-con-ference recognition. The senior leads a JSU defense that returns eight starters from a unit that ranked fourth nationally in total defense, fifth in rushing defense and seventh in scoring defense.

2017 Jacksonville State FOOTBALL GAME NOTES

10 CHAMPIONS • 2003 • 2004 • 2011 • 2014 • 2015 • 2016 • 2017

JSU Posts 90-29 Record Since 2008 SeasonJacksonville State has posted an 90-29 record since the start of the 2008 season, a .756 winning percentage.

JSU Becomes 1st To Sweep All Four OVC AwardsWhen the 2016 regular season ended, Jacksonville State became the first team to sweep all four OVC football awards since the inception of the Freshman of the Year in 2004. Last season, John Grass won his third-straight Roy Kidd OVC Coach of the Year and Eli Jenkins on his second-straight OVC Offensive Player of the Year. Darius Jackson was named the OVC Defensive Player of the Year and Marlon Bridges won the OVC Freshman of the Year honor.

Neal Invited To Play in Senior BowlSiran Neal can add his name to a short list of Jacksonville State football greats. The senior cornerback from Eufaula received an invitation to play in the 2018 Reese's Senior Bowl, becoming just the fourth player in school history to receive that honor. He would join Dieter Brock (1974), Jesse Baker (1979) and Sean Richardson (1994) as the only Gamecocks to play in college football's premier senior showcase event, which will take place on January 27 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile. The game annually features the country's best senior collegiate football players and top NFL draft prospects on teams representing the North and South that are coached by the entire coaching staffs of two National Football League teams. It will be televised on the NFL Network.

Replacing Jenkins and BargeOne of the tasks facing the Gamecocks in 2017 will be replacing two of the greatest offensive players to ever wear the Red and White. Quarterback Eli Jenkins and wide receiver Josh Barge both exhausted their eligibility in 2016, but not before rewriting the Gamecocks record books. Jenkins amassed 11,448 yards of total offense in his four seasons at JSU, 3,760 more than any player in school history. He is the only Gamecock to ever be named OVC Male Athlete of the Year and did so twice – in 2015 and 2016 – and was the OVC’s first team all-conference quarterback in each of his last three seasons. He is the school’s career passing yards leader and is the second-leading rusher in school history. His 3,796 career rushing yards are the seventh-most by a quarterback in FCS history, and as JSU’s starting quarterback, he never lost a regular season game to a non-FBS opponent.Barge was his favorite target over the past four years. He broke the school’s career records for catches and receiving yards, while his 19 receiving touch-downs are third all-time. He caught a pass in each of his final 50 games, the longest streak in OVC history and second-longest in NCAA history. His 3,611 career receiving yards are 708 more than the next player in school history, while his 247 catches are 69 more than any other player in school history.

JSU Top Three Seed For Third-Straight YearThe Gamecocks earned their highest seed to that point in the FCS playoffs at No. 2 in 2014 and has made a habit of being one of the top seeds since. JSU was the No. 1 overall seed in 2015 and earned the No. 3 seed in the 2016 FCS Playoffs. JSU and North Dakota State are the only teams to receive one of the top three seeds in each of the last three seasons.

Undefeated in the OVC. AGAIN!In 2015, Jax State became just the third program in OVC history to complete back-to-back 8-0 seasons, joining Eastern Kentucky (1993 & 1994) and Murray State (1995 & 1996). John Grass, in his second year as a collegiate head coach in 2015, made NCAA history by becoming the first FCS coach to

begin his career with a perfect 16-0 conference record in leading JSU to its second-straight OVC Championship. It didn’t stop there, with JSU going 7-0 in OVC play in 2016, the first team in OVC history to go unbeaten and untied in three-straight conference seasons. Grass becomes the first coach in NCAA Division I history to go his first three seasons as a head coach without a conference loss.The Gamecocks are 7-0 so far in 2017 in OVC play and have the chance to secure an unprecedented fourth-straight perfect OVC record with a win this week vs. Tennessee State.

Racking Up Tackles for LossThe Gamecocks destroyed the school record for tackles for a loss in a season in 2015 with 135, 28 more than the previous record of 107.0 set in 2013. Darius Jackson and Chris Landrum both set the school record for tackles for a loss in a season with 19.0.The 2016 season started no differently, with Jax State amassing 9.0 tackles in the backfield in the opener against North Alabama. Through 12 games last season, the Gamecocks totaled 97 tackles for a loss, an average of 8.1 per game that led the OVC and ranked fourth in the nation.So far in 2017, the Gamecocks are ranked seventh nationally with 8.4 tackles for a loss per game and have a total of 84, led by Darius Jackson's 18.0.

Gamecocks Among Best in FCS Since 2010Since the start of the 2010 season, Jacksonville State is among the best in the FCS in wins and winning percentage. Below are the FCS’ top teams since the start of the 2010 season by total wins:Team W L Pct.North Dakota St. 101 13 .886Sam Houston St. 83 26 .761Eastern Wash. 76 26 .745Jacksonville St. 75 23 .765James Madison 69 23 .750San Diego 65 23 .739Harvard 64 15 .810Bethune-Cookman 64 26 .711

JSU’s John Grass’ Unprecedented OVC StartJSU’s John Grass led his team to the OVC Championship in his first year as a collegiate head coach. In doing so he became just the fifth OVC coach to lead his team to the title in his first season as a head coach, joining Austin Peay’s Boots Donnelly (1977), UT Martin’s Jason Simpson (2006), Eastern Kentucky’s Dean Hood (2008) and Eastern Illinois’ Dino Babers (2012). He and Babers are the only two coaches to win OVC crowns in each of their first two seasons, and Grass is the first to win the OVC crown in each of his first three seasons, much less in each of his first four seasons. Grass is the first coach in league and FCS history to go unbeaten in league play in his first two seasons and extended that to his first three years. He is 30-0 in OVC play as JSU’s head man and one win away from a fourthh-straight perfect conference season..

Gamecocks Running For 100After JSU’s 197 rushing yards against UT Martin on Nov. 11, the Gamecocks have now rushed for 100 yards in 48-straight games. JSU’s last sub-100-yard rushing game was at Michigan State to open the 2014 season. JSU has run for 100 yards in 54-straight games vs. FCS foes, with the last time it didn’t reach the milestone coming vs. Tennessee State on Oct. 12, 2013, which is also JSU's last regular season loss at home.

Grass Off To OVC’s Best StartJSU head coach John Grass became just the second coach to win back-to-back OVC Championships in the first two years of their career, joining EIU’s Dino Babers, who won titles in 2012 and 2013. Grass is off to a 30-0 start against OVC opponents, the best start by a coach in league history. He became the first coach in OVC and FCS history to post back-to-back unbeaten conference seasons to start his career and extended that to become the first coach in OVC history with three-straight unbeaten seasons to start. He is one win away from making himself the first to go unbeaten in four-straight seasons.

JSU Became First OVC Team in FCS Finals Since 1982In 2013, OVC teams broke a 19-game playoff losing streak (that stretched back to 2000) and advanced two teams (Eastern Illinois and Jacksonville State) to the Quarterfinals marking just the second time in league history two teams had advanced that far in the same year. In 2015, Jacksonville State helped the OVC snap a six-game losing streak in FCS Quarterfinal contests with a 58-38 victory over Charleston Southern. The Gamecocks were the first OVC team to reach the semifinals since Eastern Kentucky did in 1991 and the first OVC team to make it to the semifinals in a field bigger than 12 teams (the field expanded to 16 teams in 1997). They then snapped the OVC’s four-game losing streak in the FCS Semifinals with a 62-10 win over Sam Houston State to become the first OVC team to advance to the National Championship game since 1982 (when EKU won it all).

Another Punter From Down UnderMost programs may find it rare to find a punter from Australia. Not The Game-cocks. Senior Dean Kelly, a Melbourne native and 2016 transfer from Stillman after the college shut down its football program after 2015, followed fellow Aussie Hamish MacInnes as JSU’s punter. MacInnes was JSU’s primary punter for four years from 2012-15.

Gamecocks Run For More Than 3,000 AgainThe Gamecock offense ran for 4,829 yards in 2015, the most in a season in school history. Before John Grass took over the reigns as offensive coordinator in 2013, JSU had five 3,000-yard rushing seasons in school history, while his offense has passed that mark in each of his four seasons. Below are JSU’s 3,000-yard rushing seasons: Team Rush Yds 1. 2015* 4,839 2. 1991 3,857 3. 1992 3,797 4. 2013* 3,604 5. 1988 3,496 6. 1989 3,477 7. 2014* 3,424 8. 1990 3,213 9. 2016* 3,007

Running Backs Have Familiar FaceThe Gamecocks have the same coaches at every position but two this year, but there’s one on the staff that has been around for a while. Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator and running backs coach Jimmy Ogle is in his 18th year on the JSU staff and his 17th-straight year coaching the JSU RBs.

Familiar Faces on Gamecock StaffFourth year head coach John Grass has the pleasure of having all but two of his assistants back from the 2016 season this year, giving him eight assistants that have been with him for each of his three seasons as the JSU head coach. Five coaches enter their fourth year as a full-time assistant for Grass, while Owen Kilgore is in his third season as the cornerbacks coach after spending 2014 as a graduate assistant for Grass.Two coaches enter their second season at their respective positions, Kevin Revis (OL) and Cody Wells (QB).Wlliam Green begins his first season as the Gamecocks’ defensive line coach after spending the 2016 season at his alma mater Florida. Green is no stranger to Grass, serving as a defensive graduate assistant in 2014 and 2015, and he also played for Grass at Spain Park High School. Cleo Lemon is JSU’s new wide receivers coach, on Grass’ staff for the first time.

JSU on The TubeJacksonville State is 97-51 (.655) in televised games in its football history, including a 7-1 record in 2017. JSU played just 10 televised games before moving up from Division II after the 1992 National Championship, and is 88-48 in televised games at the Division I level.

Not So Long...The Gamecock defense only allowed nine rushes of longer than 20 yards in 2014 in 446 rushing attempts by the opponents. JSU allowed just 127.2 yards rushing yards to rank 23rd nationally to lead the Ohio Valley Conference.In 2015, JSU only allowed 17 rushes of 20 yards in 540 attempts by its opponents, who combined for just 120.9 yards per game on the ground. That ranked JSU first in the OVC and 16th nationally in rushing defense.In 2016, JSU allowed eight 20-plus-yard rushing plays in 415 attempts, but only four to non-FBS foes in 378 attempts.

Sweet Home Jacksonville“There’s no place like home”, the old saying goes and the Gamecocks can certainly attest to that. Since JSU Stadium opened in 1946, Jacksonville State has posted an incredible 274-100-8 (.728) record at home. The stadium completed a $47 million expansion in 2010. The new facility con-sists of seven stories, with the bottom four floors dedicated to nearly 400 dorm beds. The top three floors include 33 luxury skyboxes, a new press area, coaches booth, radio and television broadcast facilities, and a game management booth. The stadium now seats 24,000. New turf was installed just before the 2016 season and a new high-definition video board was debuted for the 2017 season- JSU has the highest home winning percentage and the most wins in the OVC since joining the league in 2003.

20 CHAMPIONS • 2003 • 2004 • 2011 • 2014 • 2015 • 2016 • 2017

Stopping the Run is Job No. 1 for GamecocksThe Jacksonville State run defense has been exceptionally sturdy since the Gamecocks moved to Division I in 1995, but especially since joining the Ohio Valley Conference prior to the 2003 season. JSU has held the opponents to 100-yards or less 77 times since moving to Division I in 1995. As a matter of fact, Jax State has held at least one opponent to under 100 yards rushing every season as a Division I member except for 1997. The eight foes under 100 yards last season passed the 2015 and 2003 teams for the most in one year. The Gamecocks have held an OVC opponent to 100-yards or less 49 times. JSU held six Southland Football League opponents to 100-yards or less and 14 other times was against non-conference opponents. Here’s a complete list of opponents held to 100-yards rushing or less since 1995:
