YOU GO GIRLS: S veral Black College
LET'S DO IT AGAIN: Although he
uffered a parated houJder in the 10 to Sam Houston
tate last week, Steve McNair i expected to play in the
Alcorn-Mi i ippi Valley game thi weekend. Dubbed
the Magn tia Cia ic, thi year' game will celebrate the
10th anniver ary of one of the bigge t game in SWAC
hi tor}. Back in 19 4 before nearly 64,000 fans at Mi sis-
ippi Veteran Memorial Stadium in Jackson, an unde-
. feated Alcorn State team led by future NFL pro Issac Holt,
met the und feated Delta Devils featuring the combina­
tion of nior wide receiver Jerry Rice and junior quarter­
back Willie Totten. Back then it was Alcorn State's de­
fen trying to top the Mi i ippi Valley Offense. Thi
year the role are rever ed. Alcorn lead the SWAC in
t tal offen e while Mis i ippi Valley i third in the
confer nce in total defense.

WHO IS FOR REAL: Living tone proved
la t week that they are no fluke. They were stopped three
time on the goal line last week to prevent them from
napping a 21-year 10 ing treak to WaS State. Neverthe­
Ie ,they demon trated that they can be competitive with
anyone. The Bear travel to Peter burg this week to take
on Virginia State (HC) who rose to respectability last year.
l The matchup of former high chool coache Lou Ander­
n and Rudy Abrams will be intere ting.

The 1994 edition f Black College F tball i _turning out
to be mething pecial.
If you haven't heard a ut Alcorn State quarterback
Steve "Air" McNair and the hype accompanying hi que t for.the
coveted Hei man Trophy then you haven't been reading Sports
Illustrated, USA Today, The porting News, Street & Smith's Pro
Edition or the Black Coil ge port Page. All of the epublication
and mo t major media have followed his quest to bring the
Hei man trophy to a black coil ge for the first time ever.
He app ared on regional television (AB ) this week and
now come word that Alcorn' Oct. 29 game v . Samford will be
carried by SJ)9rtSouth cable TV network. AI ,ESPN i consider­
ing televi ing either the Oct. 8 matchup again t Texa Southern or
the Oct. 29 howdown a ain t B SP #1 ranked Southern. So far,
McNair's numbers have more that lived up to the billing. And
despite suffering a eparated houlder in la t week' 10 to am
Houston State, McNair ay he'll be back thi week a the Braves
face Mi i ippi Valley.
Much of the hyp ha centered on how high McNai!' will
go in next year' NFL draft. orne ay top five other say he will
be the first selection. The Charlotte Ob erver featured a full page
in their Sunday edition highlighting th likelihood of the Carolina
Panthers making him the fir t pick and the corner tone of their
expansion franchi . That tory featured the hi tory f Alcorn,
McNair' Hei man hop . and orne intere ting qu te from pr
cout a ut McNair' ability.
