College Football Preview 2018: Jackson State Tigers



Jackson State University Tigers
#Head coach: Tony Hughes (6-16 overall, all at JSU entering third season)
2017 record: 3-8 overall, 3-5 SWAC
Radio: 95.5 FM
Stadium: Veterans Memorial Stadium
2017 Recap
Year two under coach Tony Hughes started out with a seven-game losing streak. JSU had some close losses but didn't earn a win until its 24-5 victory over Mississippi Valley State University in late October. The Tigers lost their next game 3-13 to Alabama State University.
The season highlights were narrow back-to-back wins against Alabama A&M University and East champion Alcorn.
A lack of offense was the Tigers' biggest problem. JSU averaged just 12.7 points per game, and only scored 20-plus points three times. That put pressure on the defense all season long.
