BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Southern quarterback Austin Howard repeatedly told receiver Reggie Travis he'd help the the wideout record his first touchdown as a Jaguar against Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Saturday.
Howard didn't waste any time making good on his promise to the Memphis-transfer during the Jaguars' 51-36 rout of the Golden Lions.
On the second play from scrimmage, Howard dropped back for a pass and found Travis streaking down the left sideline with one-on-one coverage. Howard then lofted a jump ball that Travis hauled in for a 79-yard touchdown strike, setting the tone for a career performance from Southern's freshman gun slinger.
"I really saw [Howard] grow this week," Travis said. "Then I saw him [Saturday] morning, and he just looked ready, so I knew he was going to have a big game."
