Coastal Carolina vs. Jacksonville State FULL GAME |NCAAF 2024 season | NCAAF today |Highlights Today

and that's the defense of front for Jacksonville State that was one of the best running defenses in the nation let's check out this Shanta clear offense and about Braden Bennett not your typical size back here no he's not in the game right now but he's a big back he has home run speed he's their all-around backer leading Russia from last year he reminds me of Le'Veon Bell we'll see him soon second and 14 a little jump at the line some more Flags will come and we'll go ahead and sort this out here in just a moment defense Number 96 5yd penalty remains second down Rodney Bernett sorts that out and already a penalty on both sides yeah they run a Tempo offense C does but they also switch up the tempo that was a hard count that got Jack state to jump off sides there the handoff to Simpkins breaks to the second level dragged down at the 46 yd line set things up for third down as we highlight the Jack State Defense and a lot of players that you can highlight but Jrock Swain is the leading man he's the OG the leader in the in the in the locker room he's been around quite a bit they're going to need to stop the run tonight and it's going to start with jayrock Swain Simkins stays in the game first and 10 as he picks up the first down they'll give it to Simkins again the sophomore from Miami Florida getting some early work yeah he's a new transfer to the team I know the OC tricket talked how he recruit him three different schools he got him here he's a Dynam dnamic running back I mean they love his change of pace speed it looks like he gets a start here today because his ability to run downhill and break out big runs four yard gain three carries already for Simpkins as Coastal Carolina is now in Jack State territory Vasco in the shotgun fakes the handoff slings it quickly to the outside dancing but dragged down not much going there they were trying to get it to Trey Taylor their Speedster a loss of three that was Zachariah poiser great open field tackle they're going to run these rpos and get the ball out quickly and you got to be able to tackle in space setting up a third down here it's spread out you got flat line across the board anytime you see these DBS on a line it looks like it' be a blit zero coverage here bringing some pressure they show pressure they cross the line free play here potentially Vasco down the sideline nearly picked off but you get the sense there be another flag against the Jack State def defense coo Carolina switching up this Tempo Jack States coming out a little excited maybe too excited they're not watching the ball offside Defense number 41 in the neutral zone at the snap the 5y penalty results in the first down curle young Jr whistled for offside give up three first downs so fresh set of downs for Vasco if you talk about the opening drive of the Season it is going to perfectionist Simpkins bust free Simpkins keeps his feet tries to cut one more time finally wrestled Out of Bounds at the 10 yd line a gain of 24 yards as the Shanta clear Mak of Texas and Michigan State 12 other group of four schools and the sophomore coming up huge in this first drive they fake the hand off it's Basco the dart is deflected he's trying to get it to Cameron wri but broken up as poiser able to get a hand in there 27th in the country that's not good enough they work on it all offseason they need a score down here three receivers to The Far Side designed run for Vasco he is chopped down and that will bring up third down gain of two Jack state was all over it this is a big third down here field goals is not going to get it done against this offense we got this blitz look again from Jacksonville State the tight end Kane Baron who was injured last year split out near the hash on the far side of the field he's a Red Zone Target keep an eye on him a shift before the snap two to go Vasco rolling to the left locks it up too strong out the corner of the end zone was looking for senica mcke that'll bring out the field goal unit Seno mcke they talk about he has great ball skills but you got to give him a catchable ball they rolled out there to the left in Bas like I said he was not the most accurate and that ball was not placed well and they're looking like they're coming here with a field goal attempt I know it's not what they wanted but it's what they're going to get 25 yd attempt Kade Hensley to step onto the field M West will be the holder Coastal Carolina looking for their first points of the season from the right hash the kick is up and straight through the pipes as the Shanta clears March down the field and pick up three points on the get a bull of up here nacho di here comes the kickoff and that's going to Sail Out Of The End Zone as Liam Bray here's stat of the day Logan has now tied the school record for most touchbacks in Coastal Carolina history shout out to him man he can't get any better than breaking a record here tonight Logan Smothers the quarterback tonight accounted for 13 total touchdowns last year he's great at what they do he knows the tempo he knows what Rich rod wants the offense is Rich Rod's baby and Logan smother is in charge of it tonight so we'll see how he does but he has experience he's played last year he's a reliable Choice buckle up last year it was the fastest offense in all of college football just barely over 20 seconds per snap and they want to continue that pace to begin this season it's Smothers in the back field and War Lewis takes a hit and coming downhill and chopping him Tobias Fletcher had a beat on it Tobias comes downhill like a heat seeking missile and that's a great tackle to inside out gets him down for a t for a one-yard game wasting no time a deep split in the back field on the hash was Lewis not much going there and now that'll bring up third down just like that as Shane Bruce was in on the tackle real quick look at the Jack State offense clay Webb you know he's good if you highlight a guard I saw a couple Pro Scouts here tonight it was for Klay web he is going to be playing on Sundays ladies and gentlemen he is a NFL caliber player third and eight the backfield empties trying to throw a strike and just outside the reach it was Michael pway running the crossing route and that's the danger of this fast-paced offense you can go three and out real quickly and give it right back to the other team absolutely Jack State got very off in this game and it's not their strength Jack Dawson the senior from syvan Waters Australia back to punt up for the ray guy award watch list this year fair catch signal called by Trey Taylor at the 28 yd line so one two three line them up issues running the ball this was the team that was known for their Air Attack last year but it was very impressive of what we saw from Javin Simpkins that opening drive they'll fake the hand off to him rolling to his right is Vasco Vasco finds his big tight end Kendall car it takes a flurry of Jack State Defenders to finally bring him down 12 yards on the first down pickup we know they love their tight ends in this offense they've been playing two a lot 12 Personnel Kendall Carr's one of them and you see all that running in the first first series now you come out with a play action your tight ends wide open I like how they're calling it so far Carr pre-season second team Sun Belt one of the many tight ends that coach Beck raved about in our call it's the handoff Simkins trying to make his way to the right goes in motion you see the defense shift with him waiting on the snap is Vasco patient slow developing handoff and it's just Simpkins that continues to churn those legs near the first down marker at Midfield Javin Simpkins 59 190b BS but he's te those legs he's keeping him pushing his Dynamic nicely Stout running back that has strength and speed and power brings up third and one defensively Jack State now you're going to have to be ready to defend a lot of different options here yeah they can go for it on fourth down you can take a shot here because if you go for it on fourth down I think they want to convert this third down they load the right side leaping over the ball is loose it's still on the turf scrambling for it are both teams and this looks like Jack state is going to force their first turnover of the season and you mentioned the defense dominating the line of scrimmage right there they force the turnover bill belich is ripping his hair out right now we do not dive over the pile in the middle of the field that is a goal line move he pulls out on the Middle Field and this so Logan Smothers back in the game gets another chance fakes the hand off Smothers darting to the left side of the field Smothers finally brought down just out outside the 40 yd line but Logan Smothers showcasing the running ability picks up 13 yds and that's what Logan Smothers does he's athletic he can run the ball he can run the offense put it in his hands great gain there they continue to push the pace the hand off to Lewis Lewis spinning pinballing his way forward and now you see that Tempo start to benefit Jack State Rich Rod says he wants to see what the backup defensive linan looked like how deep they are he wants to run it so fast the starting defense and have to go take a break things slow down just a little bit you still see some signals from the sideline for Jack State as those receivers need to know where they line up pway in motion it's the handoff once again as Lewis really starting to find his footing picks up another first down after the seven yd gain we have't
