Jaguars Shine in Jamboree. Defeat Oxford 10-7
September 26th, 2007Coach Chris Purnell’s Jaguar football team traveled to Oxford to take on the Chargers, August 23rd, at Hemingway Stadium on the campus of The University of Mississippi. Showing a real estate chomping offense and a stingy defense, the Jags came out on top 10-7. The Jag offense lined up with two tight ends in a power formation and literally rammed the ball down the throats of the Chargers. Junior Fullback, Antonio Briggs, carried the load up the middle gaining tough yardage, mostly carrying 5-6 Chargers defenders on his back. The Jags then went outside and off tackle with running backs, junior Trez Townes and senior Trell Watkins, in a show of dominance. When the smoke cleared and Oxford was able to get the ball back the Jaguar defense wouldn’t give an inch. Oxford’s entire offensive production occured on 3 long pass plays when the Jaguar defensive assignments broke down.
The Jags open their regular season on Friday, August 29, at Bruce. Kickoff is at 7:30 PM.
I guess everybody will just throw deep against the Jags.
