Jax State (6-3, 5-0 CUSA) is tied with Western Kentucky for the top spot in the conference heading into Week 12 of the season, also becoming bowl-eligible with a win over Louisiana Tech.
Published: Nov. 13, 2024, 3:45 p.m.Brandon Phillips, Jax State PhotoLike many others, Rich Rodriguez and his staff have a 24-hour rule for celebrating and moving on from wins.“Certainly you want to move on, but then everybody else is talking about it because of the Hail Mary play, which is unique,” the Jacksonville State coach said. “It doesn’t happen very often. You’re lucky to have one every five years.
“Just like what coach says, that 24-hour rule,” veteran receiver and Thompson alum Michael Pettway said. “We enjoyed the moment. We enjoyed it Sunday, but pretty much yesterday, we got our minds on FIU. And really, today, last week is over, we’re on FIU now.” Florida International will be on a long rest coming into this matchup, with its last game being an Oct. 29 victory over New Mexico State to snap a three-game losing skid.
FIU’s 34-13 victory over New Mexico State saw receiver Eric Rivers haul in 11 passes for a program-record 295 yards and three touchdowns, with 2023 CUSA all-freshman team honoree Keyone Jenkins throwing for 338 yards and four touchdowns.
