MVSU upsets Jackson State in Comegy's return, 27-23

JACKSON, Mississippi -- Rick Comegy and his new Mississippi Valley State team spoiled Jackson State's homecoming game.

The former JSU coach, who was fired by the program last December, guided his MVSU squad to a comeback 27-23 victory at Veterans Memorial Stadium.

It was the first time since 1994 that the Delta Devils defeated the Tigers.

And it was another painful loss for JSU (3-4, 1-3 SWAC), which dropped its third game to a team seeking its first conference win.

The Tigers held the 14-6 lead. But it all changed when the Delta Devils switched quarterbacks from Patrick Ivy (the older brother of JSU quarterback LaMontiez Ivy) to Quantavius Peterson.
