Jacksonville State held off North Alabama for a 47-31 win at Toyota Field, home of the Rocket City Trash Pandas.
Not just a once-popular boy band, but the unique configuration at Toyota Field, home of the minor league Rocket City Trash Pandas, for the milestone 50th football meeting between Jacksonville State and the University of North Alabama.
The east end zone was regulation depth and defensive touchdowns, safeties and punt returns could occur in that direction. After every change of possession, the ball was repositioned.“I really thought it was a neat environment,” said Jacksonville State head coach Rich Rodriguez. “I was a little leery going into it because I’ve never played on a baseball field, but it worked out fine.
“It’s different playing in one direction. We did a great job of preparing everybody for what was coming. I think everyone felt really confident with the plan and it’s paid off.” “We’ve been talking with the Trash Pandas this week about ‘hey, what’s next?’,” Lamp said. “We’ll get through this, take a look at what worked, what didn’t, take that and then figure out what we can do next.”“This has been a great venue for a football game, and I hope these are the types of matchups that we will see here for years to come,” said Fairhope resident and UNA supporter Jake O’Neil, who attended the game with several family members. “The atmosphere was outstanding, the fans were loud.
