GRAMBLING, Louisiana — Jackson State’s
five-game losing streak to SWAC rival Grambling State is officially a thing of
the past.
And it wasn’t even close.
JSU scored 32 unanswered points in the first half, Clayton Moore threw for
257 yards and two touchdowns and senior Rico Richardson had 115 receiving yards
in a 53-17 victory today at Eddie G. Robinson Stadium.
“I’m just happy with the way the kids responded,” JSU coach Rick Comegy said.
“I was just happy and pleased to see us come out here and not let a fired up
Grambling team take it to us because they’ve been beating us for a quite a few
years.”
JSU relished the opportunity to kick the host Tigers while they’re down. GSU
fell to 1-8 overall and remained winless (0-7) in SWAC play.
JSU (5-4, 5-2 SWAC) hosts Alabama A&M (7-2, 6-2 SWAC) next Saturday in
what will be a critical Eastern Division game. JSU can clinch the division with
a win over the Bulldogs. The Tigers can still clinch the division with a loss if
Alabama A&M loses one of its remaining games.
