Jaguars improve to 2-1 this season after scoring major upset on road
Sep. 16, 2023, 9:29 p.m.South Alabama's La'Damian Webb runs for a 17-yard touchdown in the first quarter at Oklahoma State on Saturday. This time, South Alabama finished the job.
South Alabama came into the season with high expectations and some national buzz after going 10-3 in 2022, only to fall flat in a 37-17 loss at Tulane on Sept. 2. The Jaguars sleepwalked through a 35-17 win over Southeastern Louisiana in Week 2 before putting it all together on Saturday before a stunned sellout crowd in Stillwater.
South Alabama couldn’t get into the end zone, settling for Diego Guajardo’s 42-yard field goal and a 26-7 lead with 9:04 to play. Guajardo also hit a 39-yarder in the first quarter to give the Jaguars an early lead. South Alabama controlled the clock on the ground, rushing for 243 yards as a team. The Jaguars held the Cowboys to 4-for-15 on third down, 1-for-8 in the first half.
South Alabama botched the extra-point snap to lead 16-0, but that about the only mistake of the first quarter. Bradley hit Lacy again on a 57-yard touchdown with 1:03 left in the half to put the Jaguars up 23-0.
