Millsaps College -- Defensive Coordinator Joe Kinsella knows the Majors must win on the road this Saturday to give them the jump start they will need to compete in SCAC play beginning next weekend. "We plan to throw our road woes behind us and focus on being successful," said Kinsella during a Thursday morning interview. "We have a good football team, and we are excited about our first road trip this year."
The Majors, who lost every game away from Alumni Field last season, look to garner a road victory this weekend as they travel to Maryville, TN, to play the Maryville College Fighting Scots.
The Majors, 1-1, are coming off a 56-12 trouncing of the South Alabama club football team. (Neither the win nor the statistics count). The Scots (0-4) will enter Saturday's game coming off a 27-19 loss to Sewanee.
