BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Southern quarterback Dray Joseph walked slowly to midfield from the Jaguars’ sideline and shook the hands of Alcorn State players, congratulating them on their 44-38 overtime victory Saturday night inside A.W. Mumford Stadium.Joseph took one last look at the scoreboard in the south end zone of the stadium, put his helmet on and made his final trek toward the north end zone and into the Jaguar locker room.
There, he was greeted by linebacker Daniel Brown, who had one message for Joseph and the rest of the Jaguars: Southern is still in position to win the Western Division of the Southwestern Athletic Conference.
“It’s a great thing to come into the locker room and hear Daniel Brown telling everyone not to worry about this loss — that we’re going to be in the championship anyway,” Joseph said. “It’s a great thing when you have guys that are always preaching positivity.”
On Saturday, Southern ran short of the magic that led it to overtime victories in previous home contests against Prairie View and Alabama A&M.
