Fort Valley State Wildcats focused on turnovers after loss

FORT VALLEY, GA — The good news was that Fort Valley State’s offense moved the ball, to the tune of more than 400 yards and four touchdowns. The bad news was that same offense had more turnovers than touchdowns, and Morehouse made the Wildcats pay dearly. No matter what happens the rest of the season, Fort Valley State won’t forget Saturday’s 47-34 loss.

“Wooo, boy,” FVSU linebacker Ricky Johnson said, shaking his head. “We never should have lost that game.” But FVSU gave up points on a 95-yard fumble return and 60-yard interception return while watching Morehouse convert two more fumbles into touchdowns. “Without the turnovers, I think we win that game,” Johnson said. “Point-blank, period. But we can’t win with too many turnovers.”

The Wildcats depart SIAC competition — perhaps just in time — when they take on Savannah State on Saturday at Henderson Stadium.
