GRAMBLING, LA -- Grambling State's Saturday night game against Alcorn State figured to be more telling than the Tigers' season opener against Nevada. The Grambling offense managed just five net rushing yards in last week's 49-13 loss, while the defense allowed 426 rushing yards. But surely those numbers were a product of the matchup -- Grambling was tussling with an FBS opponent.
Against ASU the talent level would be equal. The Tigers would be playing in the friendly confines of Robinson Stadium. Order would be restored. Right? Well, sort of. Grambling's defense put forth a great performance from start to finish, holding Alcorn State scoreless in the 29-0 victory. The Tigers created five turnovers, held the Braves to 176 yards of total offense -- including just 41 yards on the ground -- and created countless easy scoring opportunities.
