Jacksonville State had 18 penalties in Sunday's 13-10 loss to Austin Peay, and it's been four years since an Ohio Valley Conference team had that many in a game.
At this point, can you imagine anyone else in the OVC outside of this Jacksonville State football team winning the championship?
Looking for something to do today after Jacksonville State's football game?
It’s one of the old names that holds a shadow over Daytona this year. Feb. 18 will mark the 20th anniversary of Dale Earnhardt’s fatal wreck. In some ways, it seems a century ago.
The ASUN Conference made a bold move in getting Jacksonville State along with Eastern Kentucky and Central Arkansas. Don't sleep on the ASUN now, as the league commissioner teased another big announcement Feb. 23.
In a year in which COVID-19 dominated, Nick Saban pulled off his best coaching job as Alabama's head coach, guiding the Crimson Tide to an unbeaten season and another national title.
It was DeVonta Smith, as understated as he was unstoppable. It was Najee Harris, walking with others for justice before leaping opponents.
A season like no other culminated in a masterpiece for Alabama, four years after it began.
A victory Monday over Ohio State would give Nick Saban seven national championships, and that'll break him out of a tie with Paul "Bear" Bryant for the most in major college football history.
Auburn is scheduled to host Alabama on Saturday at 11 a.m. (ESPN2). A win would give the Tigers a much-needed confidence boost, but at this point, it appears Alabama has taken the mantle of the state’s best basketball team.

Mark Edwards: Once the league's defensive standard bearer, Alabama and its offense can outgun anyone
If you can't score big, you can't win in the SEC. You no longer can hope your defense will carry the day. To win big, you have to do it on days when your defense is going to look at your offense and say, "Carry me," like a 4-year-old to his dad at the grocery store.
The trophy will be awarded to the nation’s best player Jan. 5. Don’t be surprised if three Alabama players finish in the Top 5.
Nick Saban and Alabama are rolling along as usual. Better than usual, in fact. Considering the Tide has won five national titles in Saban's 14 seasons and played for two more, that's saying something.
