How About Another FCS Win Over FBS...???

((HT: Patrick Netherton his own self))

We include this one because we can...

P-Netherton is the pay-by-play voice for the Northwestern State (LA) Demons and they were on the road last night at Joe Aillet Stadium to take on Louisiana Tech.

All we needed was a last-second field goal for the upset
The HQ got it...


Well called, sir... congratulations...

And that win puts a big dent in the La Tech bowl ideas...

This: LSU Baseball beats NW State 27-0 on No Hitter

((ht: theadvocate.com))

Yikes! Don't they have a mercy rule in College Baseball?

The LSU Tigers annihilated Northwestern State 27-0 in a game called in the bottom of the 6th inning due to lightning.

The game featured 2 Grand Slams HR's and 5 Tiger pitchers giving up 0 hits to the Demons.

According to the Baton Rouge Advocate, the win was the largest in LSU Baseball history--and that the program dates back to 1893.

And in case you are wondering, Northwestern State isn't a terrible team, they came into the game with a 30-21 record on the season.

Thankfully a thunderstorm rolled in and put an end to the game which started an hour late due to the weather and was delayed in the 3rd inning. The final straw was lightning in the area just before 10:30 p.m central time.

The win put the tigers at 37-14 on the season and sets them up for the SEC baseball tourney which begins next week.

Stephen F. Austin Wins on Buzzer Beating Dunk

((ht: cbssports.com))

Well, this sure is something you don't see everyday.

Stephen F. Austin University from the Southland Conference is on a roll. They've now won 22-games in a row.

Yes, 22.

And they got number 22 only because the way Saturday's game with Northwestern State ended.

Here's the setup: Clock winding down in a tie game. Northwestern with the ball. All of a sudden, Jacob Parker breaks on a pass, steals it, races down court and throws it down as the buzzer sounds.

Austin wins, game over....

College Baseball game delayed...by Fire on Field

No...really.

Wednesday's Louisiana Tech/Northwestern State baseball game got cancelled after a fire.

On the Northwestern baseball field.

Well, next to it anyway. On the rightfield wall.

It appears the chaos ensued after an electrical fire behind the rightfield wall at Northwestern's Brown-Stroud field.

The transformer that caught on fire around 3:30 Wednesday afternoon, apparently exploded just feet away from NW State baseball players who were taking batting practice in cages next to said transformer.

And according to the Northwestern State athletic site, the game, which was scheduled to start at 6:30pm was postponed because Natchitoches Fire Department apparently couldn't put it out. They had to wait for it to burn itself out.

And yeah, this is a heck of a picture.
