With today being my last day of my 200 hours, I spent some with working on recruiting, sitting in meetings, and watching practice. This is a big time week and game for the Skyhawks. It's their chance to get an automatic bid in the FCS playoffs with a win, along with the conference championship, which is the goal every season. It will be no easy task, however, as Jacksonville State is the #2 team in the country, and their defense is the best in the nation. and they have the home field advantage. This practice was a bit different from most of the previous practices I watched. There was a no nonsense, strictly business mindset that went from the coaches down to even the equipment staff. They know what the game tomorrow means, and anything less than their best, most focused efforts will result in an outcome they have worked too hard on the season to have. It's a huge game, and being a Skyhawk alum, I can't wait to see my school bring home the OVC Championship. They've earned it, now they've just got to go take it.
