College Football Saturday

Coming to you live from ASU Stadium (formerly Indian Stadium), we are awaiting the start of the first home football game of the season. The Arkansas State Red Wolves are set to take on the Tigers of Texas Southern.

Notes about the game: (Courtesy of ASU Sports Info)

The Arkansas State football team will look for its first 2-0 start since 1986. Arkansas State defeated Texas A&M 18-14 in its season opener. With a victory, ASU can secure its first 2-0 start as a member of the NCCA FBS. The Texas Southern Tigers suffered a 34-14 setback in their season opener against Prairie View A&M.

Today's game is the first meeting between the two schools.

Arkansas State is 5-1 in home openers at ASU Stadium under head coach Steve Roberts, who has led the Red Wolves to a 22-7 record on their home field. ASU has won its last three home openers, including a 45-28 victory over SMU last season.

And so it begins...
