Southern University looking for better result in this year's game against Northwestern State

BATON ROUGE, Louisiana  -- Southern University started in the hole against Northwestern State University in 2013 before the Jaguars ever stepped foot in Natchitoches. Jaguars' linebacker Anthony Balancier, a senior last season, made some disparaging comments early in the week about the Demons that, in the age of social media, spread quickly to Northwestern's campus.
It was bulletin board material that had Northwestern fired up and ready to go when the game began.

The Demons jumped to a 31-0 lead and went on to a 55-14 lead in which they dominated the Jaguars in every category. Afterward, Demon players mentioned the comments as fuel for their fire.

Southern and Northwestern get together again this week, this time in Baton Rouge and A.W. Mumford Stadium on Saturday at 6 p.m. So you'd think Jaguars coach Dawson Odums would tell his squad mum's the word this week.
