0-1 UAPB at 1-1 #24 Missouri

The Tigers were ranked #15 in preseason but a narrow loss to #22 Illinois dropped them in the polls.

DT Curtis Halterman is still out for academic reasons.

Pine Bluff looked strong in the first half but Mizzou put the pedal to the metal in the second half and left the Lions dusted. I didn't know it until after the game but Mizzou's QB is the top rated QB in the NCAA (95 ovr) and is only a sophomore. HB Chris Hoyte would have been the second 91-ovr HB we've faced in two weeks, except he went out with injury on his first kick return.

Discipline: SS Jerry Mock, our highest rated defensive back, has a D discipline rating and finally got busted outsourcing his exams. He's benched for 3 games. We'll miss him....

Or not! Freshman Rendall Garrett filled in more than capably, leading the defense with 8 tackles as UAPB came up with two big plays to pull away from a 7-7 tie.

Pine Bluff's afflicted cornerback Delvin Yeck picked off a Pirate pass attempt in overtime to seal the win for UAPB. Coach Korenpeck wasted no time as he kicked the ensuing field goal on first down. Prior to overtime the teams had traded the lead about six times.

A slugfest, a slogfest, a hogfest. Pouring rain and high winds made for an ugly, turnover-riddled game. Pine Bluff eschewed two early field goals near the goal line and regretted the lost opportunities. But UAPB staked out a 9-0 halftime lead that expanded on the only long drive of the day by either team, and on Bredon's interception return.

Halterman Suspended: DT Curtis Halterman (C discipline) suspended 3 games for perks received at a local store. Halterman is a reserve DT.

Playbook Change: UAPB has adopted the UTEP playbook for the season. (The reason is that when I started up the Army microdynasty, the profile 1 playbook overwrote the UAPB playbook.)

Pine Bluff did nothing in this game. Every aspect of the UAPB game looked bad. The onl bright spots were LB Norton Wewers' interception in the end zone to stifle another Wake score, and Jerry Mock's relentless efforts at SS.
