[BlackNGoldR3v0lut10n]

ETSU 20, Jacksonville State 20, 1:54 3rd

[TheKingpin28]

I like how they showed they were National Finalists in 2015. :D

[Bison56]

JSU's kicker looks like a DT....xeyebrowx

Like I said earlier they recruit heavy at the golden coral.xlolx

Eats like one, anyway.

[Bisonator]

JSU's tackling is awful.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Man, ETSU is surprising me. They are playing good football.

[Bison56]

JSU's tackling is awful.

Just like the fans.

[Reign of Terrier]

I'm very surprised by this one. Good job ETSU!

[PaladinFan]

Don't bet against ETSU in the 4th Quarter.

Almost like they play good football in the "weak" SoCon.

[Bisonator]

Best game of the day.

[Reign of Terrier]

dumb personal foul.

Also I think this game proves (to me, in spite of some of their more badgery fans) that Furman deserved a shot.

[katss07]

JSU needs to win or I’ll fall to 4-4 in the pickem. Granted I don’t think anyone expected Duquense to win.

[Bisonator]

What a stupid penalty.xsmhx

[POD Knows]

Jesus, stupid, undisciplined penalty on ETSU, sad.

[Hammersmith]

1. JSU came to play second half
2-Infinity. That Rooster call is annoying AF and makes me want to fill the world with uppercuts >.>

Yep. Rooting for ETSU just for that.

[JSUSoutherner]

COCK BLOCK!

[Reign of Terrier]

This game is fun

uncharacteristic miss by German

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Geez...only a 24 yarder.....xsmhx

[Bisonator]

That had no chance. Wow some of these kickers today are making me appreciate Cam Pederson a little more.xlolx

[POD Knows]

Champions make plays, not stupid penalties deep in the red zone, ETSU is going down.

[Hammersmith]

JSU 56 got a hand on it, I think.

[PaladinFan]

dumb personal foul.

I didn't beat the Furman-to-playoffs drum, but after watching the CAA fall apart today and seeing Wofford win and ETSU play JSU to a draw, you are daggum right Furman deserved a shot. I'd argue that Furman was playing the best football of the three.

[Reign of Terrier]

ETSU needed points there, their defense is exhausted

[Professor Chaos]

It was partially blocked.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

Nice pass.

[BlackNGoldR3v0lut10n]

Jacksonville State 27, ETSU 20 10:35 4th

[Bisonator]

JSU went thru them pretty quick there.

On offense: definitely. On defense...not sure. But they were better on defense than last year /end digression

Both Furman and Indiana State deserved spots.

The Fighting Hawks have said the same thing since 2015, and they have yet to leave the weightroom.

[PaladinFan]

Looks like another broken leg. A lot of those this week.

[JSUSoutherner]

He gave a thumbs up as he was being rolled out. He's going to the hospital.

[Bisonator]

Hate to see that, wish him well.

[Reign of Terrier]

not a good punt for ETSU.

[POD Knows]

Two huge drops by ETSU receivers on the last two drives,

[JSUSoutherner]

That was textbook PI, but Ok.

[CockyGeek]

Not sure how you can crawl into a jersey and avoid PI.

How can they do that when the team is trying to run a play?

It ain't over yet. ETSU converts 4&10 and scores.

I still think JSU wins, but ETSU is a master of this sort of game. This is how most of their games go.

[Reign of Terrier]

Way too early and presumptious question: if ETSU gets the stop and scores, do they go for two? I'd say yes.

[JSUSoutherner]

Sigh.

[Bison56]

Why not run the ball?

[jsualumnus]

These refs suck ****

[PaladinFan]

I had forgotten this, but I think ETSU jaws more than any team in the SoCon. I think they have barely avoided some unsportsmanlike penalties.

[Bison56]

These refs suck ****

Why? If it's the last pass play that wasnt a penalty.

[TheKingpin28]

Why?

Aren't they MEAC refs, cause if so, everyone could say that and they would be correct.

[Bisonator]

I don't know why both teams have gone completely away from the run.

[cx500d]

Aren't they MEAC refs, cause if so, everyone could say that and they would be correct.

If so, they would be the 2nd best refs in the MEAC

[Reign of Terrier]

y'allllllll this is Buc ball lmao

[Bison56]

Theres the JSU I'm use to seeing.

[TheKingpin28]

So the QB just got crushed by getting stepped on?

[Reign of Terrier]

and then they fumble

[Bisonator]

Wow JSU has a Suh wanna be huh?

[TheKingpin28]

If so, they would be the 2nd best refs in the MEAC

I am asking since I can't remember but I know PC said the MEAC was reffing a game.


WHAT THE FLYING **** JUST HAPPENED ON THE GOALLINE?

[POD Knows]

Are you ****ing kidding me

[Reign of Terrier]

that was a fumble.

[Bisonator]

That's a fumble.

[JSUSoutherner]

A HA! HAHAHAHHA! HA!

[TheKingpin28]

Did he cross the goalline before the ball came out?

[Hammersmith]

Apparently no cameras on the other side of the field.

Fumble by helmet?

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Targeting... helmet to helmet not called

[JSUSoutherner]

RUN THE DAMN BALL.

[POD Knows]

That is lucky ****ing bull**** right there.

Nope

On just first down with over 2 minutes to go, there's no use to get wild with reaching the ball towards the goal line. Just go down and try again on second down.

Dumb play by the RB going out of bounds.....xsmhx

[Bisonator]

It's over.
He ran out of bounds. What a derp.

[Reign of Terrier]

IF ETSU somehow scores here they will go for 2.

[MTfan4life]

Gotta love that running back trying to taunt there when the defender both managed to stop him from reaching the first and got him to go out of bounds and stop the clock, lol.

[jsualumnus]

We’ve had 2 nails in the coffin, and they’re like vampires!

That's typical of JSU players.

Well the clocked stopped for a few seconds.

Both these teams seem to be full of cocky bastards.

So says Bisonator...

Now it's over. Maybe.xlolx

Hats off to ETSU. Lotta fight in those Bucs.

[TheKingpin28]

This was a good game. JSU wins a game not as a 3 seed. xlolx

[cx500d]

Its over because there's a JSU Maine thread already

[Lehigh Football Nation]

That was one heck of a game. If I were ETSU I'd be incensed at that missed targeting call.

[Bisonator]

Why does Gras need security?

[BlackNGoldR3v0lut10n]

Hats off to ETSU. Lotta fight in those Bucs.

Thank you. I initially wasn't expecting to see the playoffs this year but we did. We made the most of our appearance and that's all that matters. We played with more pride today than our big brothers from Knoxville did most of the season, including today's game.

That being said, I wish you nothing but the best against Maine.

[POD Knows]

Lucky win by JSU.

[TheKingpin28]

Why does Gras need security?

They have to mimic South Carolina, so might as well go the whole way?

[Bisonator]

Congrats to the Cocks! :D

[Schism55]

Congrats Gamecocks, hard fought game by both teams.
Some bad bounces for ETSU, but they'll be back i have a feeling.

[Bison56]

Lucky win by JSU.

Very, going to be another long week of hearing how great they are.xcoffeex

[etsuandpurdue3]

Too many mistakes. We will be back soon. Good luck in the rest of the playoffs Jacksonville. I hope Kobe Kelley recovers.

[KPSUL]

Best game of the day. Congratulations to both teams!

[POD Knows]

Very, going to be another long week of hearing how great they are.xcoffeexYea, I call them as I see them, UNI got lucky today as well, both of these teams fell into W's with bow wrapped gifts from their opponents. That being said, JSU came back tough in the second half and won and that is all that matters.

It's a thing the Alabama troopers do

Agreed. Although I think JSU had a little more to do with securing their win than UNI did.

[POD Knows]

Agreed. Although I think JSU had a little more to do with securing their win than UNI did.Really, how so, a guy fumbles on the 2 inch line. Both teams backed into the W's. JSU played better and I think ETSU is probably a better team than Lamar but both teams dodged huge bullets in multiple situations in their games but that is what you have to do to win sometimes.

That would've just tied the game and, despite the ETSU lineman hitting the ball carrier, it was mainly forced by JSU as far as I could tell. Had they scored there JSU would've likely won it anyway with ~3 minutes and an offense that was shredding ETSU in the 2nd half. UNI's offense was doing diddly against Lamar most of the night. Also, on ETSU's missed FG a JSU guy blocked it instead of just relying on the kicker to choke (multiple times) like UNI did. Don't get me wrong, both teams got their games gift wrapped but UNI's win was just on another level of opponent charity.

Props to the ETSU QB... Dude hurled it around. I hope the WR is ok! Great game, and hope we beat Maine. ETSU was as good as advertised. Took us a while to get ur heads out of our asses. For all the bitching we did on that KSU fumble, last week, the refs got a call right tonight. Also, targeting should have been called...

Official attendance was 11024

I think 12k was about right. Way more than we had in our last first round game against SHSU. ETSU brought a small but loud contingent.
