With 5 unanswered TDs, JSU Tigers post another blowout win



Jackson, Mississippi -- Still frustrated and fired up about Jackson State's loss two weeks ago to Alabama State, Rodrick Gladney looked around at his celebrating teammates after a second straight trouncing Saturday and uttered these words.

"If Alabama State came in here tomorrow," JSU's left guard said, "we'd beat those boys."

He probably won't get many arguments on that - not after the last two weeks, the last two games, the last eight quarters. Jackson State roughed up a second straight league foe Saturday, whipping Arkansas-Pine Bluff 48-10 in front of an announced homecoming crowd of 38,722 at Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium.

'Mule' kicks Lions' goal-line try

Donovan Robinson calls it "Mule."

It's a defensive play call in which both of Jackson State's defensive ends crash toward the middle of the offensive line. When Arkansas-Pine Bluff faced a fourth-and-goal from the 2-yard line on its first drive of the game, guess what it was called? Yep, mule.

Robinson and opposite defensive end Joseph LeBeau crashed into the middle of the line stuffing Ben Anderson's QB sneak for no gain and setting quite the tone in JSU's 48-10 win over the Golden Lions on Saturday.

UAPB Lions simply couldn't keep up with JSU's Richardson

Asked why and how he got so wide open during Jackson State's 48-10 win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Saturday, Rico Richardson smiled. "I think I'm the fastest in the country," he said. "That's how I feel." One can't blame him too much - not on this day.

Richardson, JSU's speedy junior receiver, caught five passes for a whopping 174 yards, scored on two long touchdowns and drew a pass interference penalty in the end zone that set up a third-quarter score. The Golden Lions just couldn't keep up.
