By The Natchez DemocratMONTGOMERY — Alcorn State University inched close to a victory Saturday night, but this isn’t horseshoes.
It’s college football, and the Braves are still win-less on the season after their 28-25 loss to Alabama State University.
Alabama State (4-0) has made a name for themselves in the close games so far this season.
“Every team has its character, so I guess this is ours,” coach Reggie Barlow said. “We must like it close, but we are finding a way to win so its alright with me.”
Barlow praised Alcorn for a good showing and a comeback attempt.
“I was happy that we got off to a good start, but it shows Alcorn’s character that they were able to come back,” he said.
Alcorn fell to 0-4 with the loss. Braves coach Johnny Thomas called this week a pivotal one for his team. Alcorn State has lost to Alabama State the last three seasons.
The Braves lost to UAB last week 22-0, in a defensive struggle. Alcorn was to have played Morehouse in Las Vegas this Saturday, but that game fell through. Their next game is Oct 6th at home with Prairie View A&M Panthers.
