FOUR-DOWN TERRITORY

1. Last chance: ASU senior receiver Ephraim Henderson has a last chance to succeed on a special place for any Mississippian. Henderson is from Brookhaven, about 30 minutes from Jackson, and has never won at Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium. He lost his final high school game there for a state championship and lost there two years ago with the Hornets. Henderson has 19 catches for 150 yards and a touchdown this year. “It will be nice to go back and try to get a W,” Henderson said. “That would be a great feeling, a great way to go out.” Henderson said he’ll have 35-40 friends and family at the game. “I’m pretty sure he’s going to have an exceptional game,” ASU coach Brian Jenkins said. “He’s a guy who has done everything we’ve asked, and it’s always good to see a young man go home and show how hard he’s been working.”
