Hornets win.

Great win boys! With so many other distractions going on......this was a really BIG win!!!!!!!! The SWAC baby!!!!! yes!!!!!!!
 
I think ASU is going to make some noise in the SWAC this year, being that this was only the first game and they looked pretty fine tuned....aside from the delay of games. They need to do a lil work against the no huddle also. Other than that pretty good.
 
The special teams were the reason for this win. They set the tone and put Famu's back against the wall early.

This win was huge. CHAOS is the best word to describe what has been going here in Montgomery concerning our program.
Now, all the talk is over. Time to play football. ;)

At least this year you wont have to worry about gettin cheated like they did last year. I honestly believe that was the worst display of officiating ive EVER seen.
 
Good win Bama State. The snakes have a second SWAC azz-dragging coming to them soon enough.

FAMU has a hard road ahead in I-A.
 
Whatzup guys,

I am in a hotel room in downtown Detroit about to go peep out the jazz thing across the street. I think Chaka Kahn and some other people are suppose to be there.

Anyway, the game was off the chain! Both ASU and FAMU's offense seem pretty good, but FAMU just couldn't handle our defense. I too thought that this might have been a loss because of all the outside turmoil. FAMU's people were quiet than an mugg. LOL I was also worried because at one point ASU were getting back to back to back delay of game calls.

Hell, I was at the game I didn't know the attendance. Good looking out. 56, 951 is a great start.

I head the attendance as UPN broadcast the game. When the FAMU people, who I guess UPN partner with, asked their AD about the attendance, he said this is what famu ring to the table. I was like wait a minute, ASU second largest alumni base outside of Alabama in MoTown with the largest not that far over in ChiTown. We place a lot of butts in that arena today. famu better respect that not every was there to see that over-hyped band!!!
