Anyone who wants to know what is causing the downward spiral for Norfolk State football team, which came within a touchdown of winning the MEAC last year, only has to look at Florida A&M's 2007 results. Interceptions, missed field goals and injuries are all taking a toll on the Spartans. They desperately need a turnaround and they're hoping it begins when FAMU goes to Price Stadium for Norfolk State's homecoming today.
This time last season, Norfolk State was 6-1 and holding first place in the league. Now it has just two wins with five losses. "It's frustration more than anything," said coach Pete Adrian. "It's frustrating for our kids because they're not playing that bad." Last season when Norfolk State compiled an 8-3 record, it won the close games and ended the season with its best season since it moved to Division I-AA 11 years ago. The close ones have been escaping Norfolk State this time, though.
