MEAC-SWAC Challenge

[Mr. C]

Anyone tuning in to the MEAC-SWAC Challenge between Alcorn State and Bethune-Cookman on ESPN this afternoon? Pretty sloppy play thus far, but still a national TV game for FCS.

[Mr. C]

Comment from the announcer "This is like a bowl atmosphere." Not sure I agree with that this year.

[Mr. C]

0-0 with the clock ticking down in the first quarter. Little offense thus far. A lot of penalties.

[Mr. C]

Anyone know anything about Municipal Stadium in Orlando? This seems to be the smallest venue I can remember the SWAC and MEAC using for this game.

The one guy in the both we refer to as the--"when I played at Howard"-- dude.I think his name is Jay Walker. Hes done some work at the FCS Natty and is awful. They obviously arent the A team or B or C team.

They should call this game the "penalties in a game challenge". Both conferences seem to have a lot of issues with that. I remember a MEAC game years ago on a Thursday where a guy on the sideline tackled someone and got ejected.

[Mr. C]

Jontavious Carter, the Miami transfer receiver, gets behind the Alcorn State secondary for the first TD of the game. Bethune-Cookman 7, Alcorn State 0 early in the second period.

Just tuned in!

Jay Walker was a great FCS quarterback. Not so great as an announcer. I cringe when I bump into him before games I cover, knowing that the TV broadcast won't be so good.

[Mr. C]

Mr. Chicken, what is your take on the game? I see you out there.

We all cringe as well.

[Catsfan90]

Bethune having some serious problems with tackling...

...SUNDAY AFTERNOONS...ARE TAILOR MADE....FO' SNOOZIN'.......AH'VE BEEN YAWNIN'...SINCE KICK-OFF.......AWK!

[Mr. C]

Alcorn State ties it with a 36-yard TD pass to McKenzie. 7-7 with 8:51 left in the half.

The MEAC-SWAC Challenge, a little warm milk ... Perfect for a fowl football fan to catch some zzz's. Even the NFL Red Zone broadcasts put me to sleep on Sunday afternoons after a long Saturday of covering college football.

[Mr. C]

Giving Jay Walker some love, he did some good analysis on the Alcorn State TD pass play. Boy, did Bethune-Cookman go to sleep on that.

Fumble recovery for Alcorn State deep in B-CU territory. Foster on the recovery at the 18.

Wheel route for Turner to score on the TD pass one play after the turnover.

Alcorn State 13
Bethune-Cookman 7

8:26 2nd

Blocked PAT

Two TDs in a matter of seconds. Wonder if that woke up Mr. Chicken?

[Mr. C]

Appalachian State getting some love from Jay Walker for nearly beating Tennessee on Thursday night (Mr. C was there and the old FCS school should have won).

Almost a pick-six for Alcorn State. Bad drop by the Braves.

[Mr. C]

When I see Bethune-Cookman play, I ALWAYS miss seeing Alvin Wyatt and his wild outfits on the sideline. Wyatt had the funniest coaching show in America. Mr. Superfly.

[Mr. C]

Lightning delay at Municipal Stadium. This one could be going on for a long while.

[Mr. C]

Finishing up on Alvin Wyatt, who was also a pretty good NFL player in his day. Someone has missed the boat by not making him into a reality TV star.

I know they got the FSU/Mississippi game tomorrow at the Citrus Bowl......and the grounds crew in Daytona could have done a better job with painting the lines and hashes......

[melloware13]

Game was called due to weather, will not be made up

Municipal is in Daytona. Its the home stadium for Bethune-Cookman.

They changed the format in even number years a MEAC team host, odd numbers a SWAC team will host. In 2017 Southern will host South Carolina State

Really? Does it make you feel good to talk down on less supported conferences?
