SHREVEPORT, Louisiana — Arnold Walker rushed off the right tackle for a 4-yard touchdown run with 1:33 remaining and crossed the goal line with his both arms raised as Alcorn State erased a 21-9 deficit and climbed ahead, 22-21.Grambling pushed the ball down field for one final shot at victory, but a 42-yard field goal attempt by Fabian Carter from the right hash mark fell well short of its intended destination as time expired.
A swarm of purple jerseys rushed the field in elation with the 22-21 season-opening victory, and the Tigers eventually filed to the locker room without a single smile among the bunch.
"There ain't no good thing in losing," Grambling coach Doug Williams said. "When you lose, you can't pick out the good things because they don't resonate. I think if anybody in that room feels like they did well in that loss, they're in the wrong room. No matter how well you've done, you didn't do well enough to win."
