Hughes: Tuskegee no pushover for Jackson State in 5th Quarter Classic

MOBILE, Alabama -- Most coaches like to talk up their upcoming opponent, no matter how good they think they are or what they expect to happen on game day.

Alabama coach Nick Saban talked about Ole Miss like they were primed for an upset. He called them an explosive offensive team with a great passing game, and said the Rebels were playing a lot better on defense - aggressive and physical.

Then the Tide rolled to a 66-3 win.



COACH TONY HUGHES TELECONFERENCE

It's just what coaches do. If their team wins, it makes the fans feel that much better about a victory. If they lose, he can always so "I told you so."

But Tony Hughes isn't just blowing smoke when he says Division-II foe Tuskegee is going to give Jackson State all they can handle this Saturday in Mobile.

"This is not a typical Division-II opponent we're going down there to play this Saturday," Hughes said. "This is going to be a phenomenal challenge."
