Tennessee State 48, Jackson State 33
The Classic celebrated its 10th year in a spectacular fashion,
thanks to the two high scoring teams.
On the field, TSU and JSU grabbed yardage by the handful in
the air and inch-by-inch on the ground - even the special
teams went beyond the normal.
The 50,723 fans never knew when it was safe to look away and
not miss anything.
JSU running back Destry Wright carried the ball 23 times for
120 yards, getting into the end zone once.
However, TSU's Avion Black tied a school record with a hundred-yard
kickoff return. Seth Owens set a TSU record with his 50-yard
field goal.
Eventually, TSU pulled away, and while JSU kept coming, it
wasn't enough in the end.
