North Carolina Central vs Alabama State Highlights | 2024 FBS Week 1 | College Football Highlights

Florida here in Miami Gardens a soggy start but that's okay because the north as we are will see you on the other side Luke bracie in motion the first play from scrimmage this season and the handoff to Jamari Taylor brought down by here we go on second and seven Harris quickly out to Daryl Taylor and Taylor Who's upended flips in the air and a couple of Harris finds a an open man and that's Wen Davis Davis who is the sure hand and they're going to look to him to make critical plays and sure-handed plays like that Jamari Taylor on that left side and Taylor so very serious about Shing things up up front Taylor once more the vision the patience and the first down and 10 from the Alabama State 36 yd line Harris quickly out to marel quick and quick was quickly brought down somebody attack the scam middle of the defense well right up the middle just as you said there's Luke bracie little trickeration over to Daryl Taylor you talked about his speed trying to get to the outside marching down the field on their opening drive of 2024 Jamari Taylor nice side step and cuts and coming up right here they can pick up another first down and they're able to do so marel quick so Taylor remains in the back field with Walker Harris and they hand it off to Taylor and Taylor pushes across the Juan Valor the senior out of Anderson South Carolina taking over all kicking duties and in competition with here on first down they hand it off to AJ Gates Jr going counter to everybody on that left side candy I expect them to run the football again it's Andrew B who calls his own number and is able to sneak his way through and O'Brien came in there and competed with him and earned playing time and there the playaction pl pass and Marcus hold the line of scrimmage in field position and you want somebody making good decisions and I think that's probably why we may see mostly Jonah O'Brien we saw Williams making a play right away here on Third and medium O'Brien looking down the field and look he's got some legs body back in that similar position as Jonah o Brian the double pass and there look it's Andrew body the coaches here little trickeration already early on and dcoin kiny trying to pick up a yard but Christian one yard to pick up here and it's tquan kiny once again and is able to Boulder through that right side five yards it's second and 15 and the handoff and not much room legendary buddy pew at South Carolina state and cut Jamari Taylor who has been the feature of the game now Walker Harris who was five of five on that opening drive another completion out to Jamari Taylor we talked abouts Richard and they say you don't replace a guy like him but there are many pieces that you can fit the puzzle to help out with filling that as Jamari Taylor continuing his great off to a good start complete passes I mean number one job as a quarterback is a thow the football and he's done a really good job of throwing the football Harris on the run a wide openen man as walking Davis Davis it's the handoff to Taylor the patience once more and into the end zone Jamari Taylor of the game both scores for the Eagles and Jamari Taylor right now putting in some work Taylor the extra point is up and it's good through the Misty range Jamari Taylor obviously a concern but this is a long season look out and that one intercepted into the hands of Cole Jones and Cole Jones in for the pick six this is a guy they absolutely love playing with great Edge Let's Get another look at it here the number seven just buzzes right underneath and you'll see it let's take a look what happens here oh 16 they call 91 but take 21 unanswered points to open this ball game for North Carolina their opportunity here it's AJ Gates Jr on the return and Junior who's popping to the outside AJ Gates Jr with some speed across the 30 20 Kenny L it out absolutely [Music] 82 yds so just like that Alabama State quickly answers thanks to AJ Gates Jr as rusher they've got to try to get to the quarterback instead it's Harris who keeps it himself and duckon tries to pick up the first down and is successful in doing so we got got to get a playoff and not able to do so delay of game on the Hornets delay game on the off not going to let B get outside see how close he's creeping to the line of scrimmage nothing gets outside of and there just the soft spot in coverage and body delivers the pass to ASA Greg on North Carolina Central's last possession great run here by Marcus Harris the second and Harris close Marcus Harris the second just ice cold right now on this running I caught that ice cold but another good job here and this is one of the guys who anchors it ear is done the center snaps it over to body body on the run and Andrew body along that left side Cole Jones is trying to take the angle Andrew body and is able to trip him up body looks keeps it the entire way runs into a couple of ball or tacklers rather and then Malcolm Reed brings him down penalty marker so first down for Alabama State again avoiding the tacklers or would be tacklers and Andrew body running for another first down assumes the QB duties here on First and 10 just across Midfield and break it away oh my a great run there by Jamari Hol poor job of tackling Jackie bravard missed the running back look at all these jerseys that are around him nowhere to go for Jonah O'Brien as he's brought down Christian four minutes to go in this one Andrew B back in the ball game up the middle and B has space and opportunity and he's into the end zone Andrew body just boded the defense of the Eagles we know Andrew B's like ZZ Topp baby he's got legs and he knows how to use it what an impressive drive from and there within a touchdown another look at his TD run yeah I mean and it was all body on that drive there he hurt them with his legs and that's [Applause] why into to walking Davis and Davis was just sitting there waiting for before he was I like I like I like Titus Howard and Ezra gray will be my other Alabama State and Walker Harris took a shot as he let it go to Chanty spikes start to increase Central taking advantage another M shiftiness there of AJ Gates Jr making something out of from body they're spreading you out so they can run body very comes indeed it is and quantz Mansfield is able to track him down from behind number of M tackles they've got to sh that up or else it's going to hurt him Andrew B who has had success running the football and the QB is brought down by galani [Applause] vasel he decides to tuck it and run had success before scored a 38- yd touchdown the last time look nothing comes open right away he's going to take off Lofts it over the head and the pass incomplete to AJ Gates Jr backs to like to cut use their Vision to be able to cut all the time good hole there is great hole on the right side Jamari Taylor takes full advantage of it and you were giv credit before Again Taylor they keep riding number four in white Jamari Taylor and why not Drake Johnson now in the back field behind Walker Harris the toss to Rogers Jr slips through keeps going on that right side and he's off running finally brought down Jamari Taylor who's had success in the Red Zone twice already today and Taylor with another strong run Man in Motion Harris off the Rogers Jr he tries to push ahead but he stopped quickly swarm of black two for four on third Downs here on Third and goal Harris feeling the pressure and he's brought down that was Rico doer the all swack per that's to receive it clean snap up and it is through so extending the lead now Haven relied on the passive game as much here back for an attempt oh Brian has a man open that's Eric horn and Eric horn is able to haul it in still on his feet Cuts back inside he's to the bottom of your screen again the handoff to Marcus Harris the second look at that strong running between the Robinson jors hoping his team can net some points in their first trip in the Red Zone it's tquan kiny and kiny is is able to keep the drive going with leg it through a 41 yd attempt right at the edge of the comfort zone and it gets through over Jackson State then coached by Deion Sanders the run to the right side patiently waiting bounces off and Spins off a tackler and good enough well Taylor who is stopped behind the line of scrimmage as Demarcus Cunningham and Andrew body back as the signal caller on the field for the Hornets his pass complete to Tyrese Saunders your pre- snap re the handoff some hesitation there on the exchange between body yeah the answer there is it was O'Brian stands in and the pass incomplete across the middle Harrison tuck and it's partially blocked the penetration there can't happen can't happen The Three Amigos need to see you after practice I think they've got Walker

Taylor wri all of last [Applause] season Harris going back to the corner of the end [Applause] zone and they go back on the ground five yard it's been a sure thing graci SE tight end coming in Harris looking looking looking pulls the trigger and finds Shamari Taylor oh third y third touchdown third touchdown today the extra point is up and it's through something that's going to drive you crazy O'Brian he tried to climb the ladder but couldn't play at this deficit Andrew body who brings a great dual threat ability dangerous with his legs we saw him find let's see if he can convert here on third down he feels the pressure from Max uran and right there which will be held in Atlanta Georgia December 14th back off and running and elany maio time hornets have made it and started in Eagles
