Red Wolves roll pass South Alabama behind a stout defensive effort, now 2-0 in conference play

A-State linebacker Quanterio Heath squares off against South Alabama offensive lineman De’Arius Young. The Red Wolves defeated USA 17-7 at Saturday’s Homecoming game.

“I’m fired up about the win,” A-State head coach Blake Anderson said. “I don’t think it was an attractive win because it certainly was a defensive battle, but our defense stepped up huge. The turnover for a touchdown could not have come at a better time and I loved just being able to send the extra-point team out there and not worry about having a red zone series on offense.”

A-State started the game at their own 25 yard line, and was able to get just about anything they wanted on the opening possession.
