Ahem, 2008....Fighting Croominators 14; JSU Tigahs 13
- Thread starter Indndawg
- Start date
2008 is the wrong year for this. Maybe 2004 or 2005. By 2008, we were two missed field goals from being in a bowl. Combine that with not playing Georgia Tech and we could have been 7-5:

By 2008, we would have beaten Jackson State by 4 touchdowns. In 2004 or 2005, maybe by only 2 touchdowns. The SWAC is that bad.

Facts have no part in this discussion. Go with Consensus: that way, you'll be able to see how obvious it is that JSU would have beaten us by at least two touchdowns.
We did play Jacksonville St in 2006
