GAME 2
LAFAYETTE, La. (09/11/10) - A 31-7 fourth-quarter deficit proved to be too
much to overcome as the Arkansas State Red Wolves suffered a 31-24 loss
to the Ragin' Cajuns of Louisiana-Lafayette at Cajun Field in the Sun Belt
Conference opener for both teams.
The Red Wolves trailed by 24 points early in the final period before reel-
ing off 17 straight, but the rally fell short when ULL safety Maurice Rolle in-
tercepted ASU sophomore quarterback Ryan Aplin with 1:59 remaining in
the game to end A-State's final drive.
Aplin passed for a school-record 438 yards in the loss, completing 25 of
45 passes with two touchdowns passing and one rushing. Aplin's 438 yards
also tied a Cajun Field record, matching former Central Florida quarterback
Daunte Culpepper's mark set against ULL during the 1998 season. Soph-
omore wideout Alan Muse hauled in five passes for 133 yards from Aplin, the
most yards for an ASU player since the 2000 season.
A pair of first-quarter scores from the Cajuns handed A-State an early 10-
Sophomore quarterback Ryan Aplin
(left) was named the Sun Belt Con-
ference Offensive Player of the Week
following the Louisiana-Lafayette
game after recording a school record
438 passing yards, two passing
touchdowns and a rushing score.
point deficit.
Louisiana-Lafayette tailback Kevis Streeter went 69 yards on the Cajuns'
first play from scrimmage to put ULL on the board early in the game, and a
turnover deep in ASU territory set up the second Ragin' Cajun score. After
ULL defensive back Melvin White recovered a Red Wolves fumble at the A-
State 17, the Cajuns used a 27-yard field goal from Tyler Albrecht to take a
10-0 lead with 3:09 remaining in the first quarter.
Arkansas State answered on its next play from scrimmage when Aplin
found wide receiver Taylor Stockemer alone across the middle for a 65-yard
touchdown that cut the ULL lead to 10-7, but the Cajuns countered with three
unanswered touchdowns to build a 31-7 cushion into the third quarter.
The Ragin' Cajuns took advantage of Arkansas State's second turnover
to increase their lead to 17-7 midway through the second quarter. Louisiana-
Lafayette took over at the ASU 32 following a fumbled punt return and got
the touchdown on a six-yard pass from quarterback Chris Masson to tight
end Ladarius Green with 7:11 re-
maining in the half.
A 47-yard touchdown pass
from wide receiver Javone Lawson
to wideout Andrew Joseph
stretched the ULL lead to 24-7 with
just over four minutes to play be-
fore the break.
Masson broke free for a 60-
yard touchdown run late in the third
quarter that gave the Ragin' Cajuns
a 31-7 advantage before A-State
freshman Bobby Zalud made it 31-
10 with a 39-yard field goal with
13:24 remaining in the game.
Aplin scored on a five-yard
touchdown run with 7:42 remaining
that cut the ULL lead to 31-17, then
passed for an 11-yard touchdown
to wide receiver Anthony Robinson
with 3:27 to play that trimmed the
deficit to a touchdown, but Rolle's
interception ended the Red Wolves'
rally.
Defensively, the Red Wolves
were led by linebacker Javon McK-
innon's nine tackles, which was two
short of his career high. Defensive
lineman Bryan Hall added five
stops, including one quarterback
sack.

GAME 4
TROY, Ala. (09/25/10) — Troy quarterback Corey Robinson’s 17-yard touch-
down pass to running back Shawn Southward with 22 seconds remaining
wiped out a fourth quarter Arkansas State comeback and gave the Trojans
a 35-28 victory over the Red Wolves in Sun Belt Conference action at Vet-
erans Memorial Stadium.
Arkansas State trailed 27-14 when Troy’s Michael Taylor booted a 43-yard
field goal with 14:14 remaining, but the Red Wolves scored two touchdowns
in the final 10 minutes, including a 30-yard touchdown pass from quarterback
Ryan Aplin to wideout Allen Muse with 50 seconds to play that gave the Red
Wolves a 28-27 advantage.
The game was delayed by almost two hours by lightning when the field
was cleared with 3:04 remaining in the second quarter and with Arkansas
State trailing 21-7. The delay lasted one hour and forty-five minutes, and the
Red Wolves were able to cut the Trojan lead to a touchdown when play re-
sumed, then held Troy to a pair of field goals until Southward’s touchdown
Sophomore receiver Allen Muse
recorded 119 receiving yards on a
career-high seven receptions, in-
cluding a late go-ahead touchdown
that helped A-State rally from a 21-7
deficit against Troy.
in the waning seconds turned back the ASU rally.
Aplin finished the night with 89 yards rushing and 237 yards and two
touchdowns through the air, with Muse hauling in seven passes for 119 yards
and a score.
Troy struck early for its first touchdown, using a 70-yard touchdown pass
from Robinson to slotback Jerrel Jernigan on the Trojans first possession to
jump out to a 7-0 lead less than a minute into the game.
Arkansas State answered with an 11-play, 74-yard drive to tie the score
with 6:31 remaining in the first quarter. Running back Derek Lawson scored
from two yards out to put the Red Wolves on the board and placekicker
Bobby Zalud added the extra point to tie the game at 7-7.
Troy regained the lead when the Trojans moved 92 yards in 15 plays,
scoring on a three-yard pass from quarterback Jamie Hampton to wideout
Tebiarus Gill with 42 seconds remaining in the first quarter, then stretched its
lead to 21-7 when running back Chris Anderson scored on a four-yard run
midway through the second period.
Arkansas State came out of the
lightning delay and marched 54
yards to pull within a touchdown.
Running back Jermaine Robertson
covered the distance in three
plays, including a touchdown run of
14 yards that cut the Troy lead to
21-14 with 1:24 remaining in the
second quarter.
Troy used a 27-yard field goal
from Michael Taylor with 22 sec-
onds remaining in the second quar-
ter to go up 24-14, then made it
27-14 when Taylor connected from
43 yards out with 14:14 to play in
the fourth quarter.
The Red Wolves countered
with a 10-play, 78-yard touchdown
drive that cut the Troy lead to six at
27-21. Aplin ignited the drive with
a 40-yard run to the Troy 38, and
seven plays later, hit tight end
Kedric Murry in the back of the end
zone with a four-yard touchdown
pass with 9:26 remaining.
The Red Wolves defense did
not allow a first down on the ensu-
ing Troy possession, and ASU took
over at its 35 with 8:53 remaining,
but could only drive as far as the
Troy 31 before turning it over on
downs with 5:46 to play.
Arkansas State again held the
Trojans without a first down on the
next Troy possession and took
over at the ASU 23 with 3:56 re-
maining. The Red Wolves moved
down the field in 11 plays, taking
the 28-27 lead on Muse’s touch-
down before Troy answered with
the winning score.
Safety Kelcie McCray posted a
career-best 12 tackles, and line-
backer Javon McKinnon added a
career-best 12 stops to lead the
ASU defense.

GAME 5
JONESBORO, Ark. (10/2/10) — Down 31-7 at the break, Arkansas State
scored 17 consecutive points in the second half, but the Louisville Cardinals
turned back the Red Wolves in the final minutes of the game to secure a 34-
24 victory over ASU before a homecoming crowd of 25,219 at ASU Stadium.
The Red Wolves pulled within a touchdown with just over eight minutes
to go in the game when freshman kicker Bobby Zalud knocked through a
35-yard field goal that trimmed the Louisville lead to 31-24, but the Cardinals
answered with a 46-yard field goal from kicker Chris Philpott with 3:54 re-
maining and ASU was unable to score again.
Arkansas State quarterback Ryan Aplin passed for 209 yards and three
touchdowns in the loss, with sophomore Alan Muse grabbing three passes
for 50 yards and two touchdowns. Senior linebacker Javon McKinnon
recorded a career-high 16 tackles, including two behind the line of scrim-
mage to lead the ASU defensive effort.
Louisville jumped out to a 10-0 first quarter lead, using a 28-yard field goal
from Philpott to put the Cardinals on the board, and an 11-yard touchdown
pass from quarterback Adam Froman to wide receiver Josh Bellamy with
2:43 remaining in the period.
Arkansas State countered with a seven-play 75-yard drive midway
through the second quarter to cut the Louisville lead to 10-7. The Red
Wolves’ touchdown came on a 33-yard pass from Aplin to Muse with 9:19 re-
maining in the first half, but the Cardinals were able to use a fake punt on
their next possession to start a string of three consecutive touchdowns that
gave Louisville a 31-7 advantage at the break.
Facing a fourth-and-three from the ASU 47, Louisville converted on the
fake punt when running back Bilal Powell took the short snap down the left
sideline for the Cardinal touchdown. Louisville made it 24-7 when Powell
hauled in a 57-yard touchdown pass from Froman with 3:18 remaining in
the half, and Froman hooked up with Bellamy again 13 seconds before the
break, this time from 21 yards away for the 31-7 Cardinal advantage.
Arkansas State made it 31-14
when the Red Wolves moved 79
yards on their first possession of
the second half, getting a 15-yard,
Aplin-to-Muse touchdown pass
with 10:19 remaining in the third
quarter.
The Arkansas State defense
helped set up the next Red Wolves
touchdown when it held the Cardi-
nals on a fourth-and-seven from
the ASU 38, and the A-State of-
fense responded with a seven-
play, 68-yard drive that ended in
Aplin’s third touchdown pass of the
night. Aplin kept the drive alive
when he converted a third-and-10
from the Cardinal 38 with an 11-
yard pass to wide receiver Dwayne
Frampton, and two plays later hit
wideout Taylor Stockemer with a
24-yard touchdown pass with 14
seconds to play in the third. Zalud
added his third extra point of the
night to cut the Louisville lead to
31-21.
The A-State defense came up
big again midway through the
fourth when ASU defensive tackle
Bryan Hall sacked Froman and re-
covered Froman’s fumble at the
Cardinals’ 26, setting up a 35-yard
field goal from Zalud with 8:08 re-
maining. Louisville answered with
an 11-play, 55-yard drive that
drained 4:10 from the clock and
stretched the Cardinals lead to 34-
24 with 3:54 to play. The Red
Wolves moved to the ASU 39 on
their next possession, before
Louisville’s Shenard Holton inter-
cepted Aplin at the Cardinals’ 39 to
stop any further threat of an A-
State comeback.
Senior linebacker Javon McKinnon
was named the Sun Belt Conference
Defensive Player of the Week after
recording a career-high 16 tackles, in-
cluding two tackles for loss, against
Louisville.

GAME 7
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (10/16/10) - The Arkansas State Red Wolves led Indi-
ana for the better part of three quarters, but the Hoosiers rallied to go on top
19-14 late in the third period, then held off ASU in the final quarter to secure a
36-34 victory before a crowd of 40,480 at Memorial Stadium.
Arkansas State led 14-12 before Indiana wide receiver Terrence Turner
scored on a 27-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Ben Chappell with 4:08
remaining in the third, and the Red Wolves outscored the Hoosiers 20-17 in a
wild fourth quarter, but Indiana recovered an ASU onsides kick in the final
minute and was able to hold on for the win.
Arkansas State quarterback Ryan Aplin completed a school-record 33 of
44 passes for 275 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss,
with wide receiver Dwayne Frampton hauling in a school-record 12 passes
from Aplin for 93 yards and a score. The Red Wolves returned seven kickoffs
for 223 yards, which goes down as second all-time in ASU history.
Chappell completed 26 of 42 passes for 382 yards and four touchdowns to
lead the Hoosiers.
Sophomore quarterback Ryan Aplin
was named the Sun Belt Conference
Player of the Week for the third time
this year after recording two rushing
and two passing touchdowns against
Indiana.
With the Red Wolves trailing 36-27, linebacker ASU Javon McKinnon forced
and recovered an Indiana fumble at the Hoosier 26 with 1:36 to play. The Red
Wolves took advantage of the turnover with a 22-yard touchdown pass from
Aplin to running back Sirgregory Thornton that cut the Hoosier lead to 36-34
with 47 seconds remaining, but the ensuing onsides kick attempt bounced out
of bounds and Indiana was able to run out the clock to seal the win.
The Red Wolves jumped out to an early 7-0 lead when ASU marched 85
yards in 12 plays on its first possession. Aplin crossed the goal line from a yard
out, and placekicker Bobby Zalud added the extra point for the 7-0 ASU ad-
vantage with 7:05 remaining in the first quarter.
An interception by Indiana safety Mitchell Evans set up the first Hoosier
score of the afternoon. Evans picked off an Aplin pass at the Red Wolves 29
and returned it to the ASU five, but the Arkansas State defense denied the
touchdown and the Hoosiers settled for a 20-yard field goal from placekicker
Mitch Ewald to cut the A-State lead to 7-3.
A second interception from Evans midway through the second quarter led
to a 34-yard field goal from Ewald
with 6:15 remaining in the first half.
A 72-yard kickoff return from ASU's
Roderick Hall set up the Red
Wolves at the Hoosier 26. Arkansas
State drove to the Indiana five be-
fore Lawson converted a fourth-and-
one with a one-yard run to the IU
four, and Aplin scored from the four
two plays later for the 14-6 ASU
lead.
The Hoosiers answered with a
touchdown 40 seconds before the
half that cut the ASU lead to 14-12.
The Hoosiers took their first
lead of the game at the 4:08 mark in
the third quarter, getting a 27-yard
touchdown pass from Chappell to
wide receiver Terrence Turner to
wrap up an eight-play 58-yard drive.
Ewald added the extra point for the
19-14 Indiana advantage, then
booted a 46-yard field goal with
13:19 remaining in the fourth to put
the Hoosiers up by eight, 22-14.
A 62-yard kickoff return from A-
State's R.J. Fleming put ASU in
business at the Hoosier 28, and the
Red Wolves cashed in on the field
position with a six-yard touchdown
jaunt from Thornton with 11:39 re-
maining.
Less than two minutes later, the
Hoosiers answered again, getting a
16-yard touchdown pass from
Chappell to tight end Max Dedmond
to give Indiana a nine-point cushion
at 29-20. Arkansas State drove 51
yards on its next possession to cut
the Indiana lead to 29-27 on a five-
yard touchdown pass from Aplin to
Frampton, but Hoosier wideout De-
marlo Belcher got behind the ASU
secondary on the ensuing Hoosier
possession for a 65-yard touchdown
that again put IU up by nine at 36-
27 with 7:46 remaining.
