No revenge for Jackson State in UAPB rematch

JACKSON, Mississippi  --  When Jackson State players return to campus next Tuesday to begin preparations for Arkansas-Pine Bluff in the Dec. 8 SWAC championship game, there will be no talk of revenge.

UAPB (9-2, 8-1 SWAC) was the last team to beat the Tigers, gashing JSU (7-4, 7-2) for a season-high 319 yards on the ground in a 34-24 win in October.

JSU has won five straight since that loss on a soggy night in Arkansas.

“That was a game ago,” JSU coach Rick Comegy said. “This is a brand new ballgame. We can reflect back on things we did wrong, but I don’t think we need to reflect back in a way of revenge. That takes away from play.

“I think we just go to go in there and play solid football and do what we do best and not worry about any type of revenge,” Comegy said.
