OVC play underway

I've got Jacksonville State and Eastern Kentucky on OVCSports.tv now. There was some trouble logging in (grrr.), and I missed 17 minutes of the broadcast, including a Jax State touchdown. It's 7-0 JSU now, and EKU's Mark Dunn just fumbled to give JSU control again. 2:45 to go in the first.

What's your gameday experience like so far? Click below to comment and let us know. Anyone else have trouble with the webcast?

EDIT (3:07 p.m.): Halftime in Richmond, with Jax State over EKU 10-0. Clay Green scored on an 8-yard run to end the first drive of the game. A nifty fake field goal by JSU's Gavin's Halford turns into a punt, pinning the Colonels deep in their own territory. Then, just as the first half ends, Hallford kicks one for real to make it 10.

6:20 left in the half at the Georgia Dome. FAMU misses a long field goal to make it 3-0 over Tennessee State. That game, by the way, is on Turner South, not Fox Sports South. (Though Fox does own that network now, I think.)

EDIT (4:03 P.M.): 15-0 Jax State and the end of the third in Richmond. JSU scores a weird safety on a blocked punt that the EKU punter kicked out of the end zone after the block. Then another Jax State Field goal. The Colonels' offense is struggling. Some good throws by Greco but dropped by the receivers. Greco sacked to end the third ... 4th now underway and he's saked again on the first play, forcing a punt. JSU three and out on its first possession of the quarter. As I'm typing, EKU fumbles the punt return, giving Jax State the ball.

In Atlanta, it looks like TSU managed to score. The Tigers now lead FAMU at halftime, according to sportsnetwork.com.

EDIT (4:31 p.m.) It's over in Richmond, 28-0 Jax State. EKU, favored by league coaches and SIDs to win it all, would appear to be out of the conference title race. JSU looked very, very strong.

Tennessee State's now down 10-7 with six minutes left in the third quarter. FAMU has the ball at the TSU 28. EDIT (4:35 p.m.) Make that 16-7 FAMU. The Rattlers scored just as I hit "publish."

EDIT (5:34 p.m.): TSU looks to be headed into overtime with FAMU. It looked a little like a repeat of the end of the Jackson State game two weeks ago, with TSU coming from behind and getting a two-point conversion with 15 seconds left. Score's now 22-22.

Edit (5:52 p.m.): FAMU wins on a field goal in overtime, after a Javarris Williams fumble at the 2-yard line for TSU. Final score 25-22.
