ALBANY, GA -- Wingate quarterback Cody Haffly walked into the Albany State University Coliseum on Saturday evening as one of the best quarterbacks in Division II. He walked off the field in the shadow of Albany State's Stanley Jennings.
Jennings threw for four touchdowns and 307 yards as the seventh-ranked Rams won their home opener against No. 23 Wingate, 49-28.
"Quarterback Stanley Jennings is the best in the nation to me," said ASU receiver Ronnie Tubbs, who had three touchdowns and 136 yards receiving in the win. "We made a huge statement (Saturday night), and from here on out we have to."
ASU's statement win, which improved the Rams to 2-0 and dropped the Bulldogs to 0-2, comes against a Wingate team that nearly knocked off No. 14 Valdosta State last week. Valdosta State -- ASU's opponent next Saturday -- defeated Wingate in double overtime and then stayed unbeaten Saturday with a 24-17 win against Newberry.
