Brief Description
The Bison were not able to hold back the Gamecocks or hold down the contents of their stomachs as they battled a large hostile crowd, and a very good Jacksonville State team, and either a case of the flu or of food poisoning. In any case, Jacksonville dismantled the Bison to advance to the championship game where they were beaten soundly (to the delight of some Bison fans).
