COWBOYS IN VARIOUS HALLS OF FAMEMcNeese football has a long standing tradition of not only winning, but winning with top-caliber athletes. Two members of the Cowboy football

family have been inducted into the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame, most recently, Buford Jordan in 2011. McNeese head coach and administrator Jack

Doland was inducted in 2002.

In 2012, two more members of the Cowboy tradition were inducted into prestigious halls of fame - former Cowboy tight end R.C. Slocum in the

College Football Hall of Fame and quarterback Kerry Joseph in the Southland Conference Hall of Honor. In 2011, former athletic director Sonny Wat-

kins was enshrined into the Southland Hall.

There are also 59 football players, coaches and administrators that have been inducted into the McNeese Hall of Fame.

In all, there are 26 members of the McNeese athletic family to hold their place in 11 different Halls of Fame, not including the 130 members of the

COWBOY STADIUM The 2014 season will mark the 50th anniversary of Cowboy Stadium, one of

the most feared places to play for opponents.

Dubbed “The Hole” for its unique design and layout, the stadium was con-

structed in 1965 and renovated and expanded to a 17,410 seating capacity in

1975. Added in 1998 was a $3 million, three tier press box. In 2005, a new

scoreboard and sound system ($1.1 million renovation) debuted. And in 2008,

a GEOMAX2 artificial turf was put in and seating increased to 17,610 with the

completion of the new athletic field house that features 200 box seats that

overlook the north endzone.

The Cowboys also have a practice area (A.I. Ratcliff Field) that includes

three football fields on the east side of the stadium.

Throughout its 49-year history, Cowboy Stadium has hosted standout play-

ers such as Roger Staubach (Pensacola Navy, 1968), Terry Bradshaw (Louisiana

Tech, 1967 and 1969), Jackie Smith (Northwestern State, 1960), Chad Penning-

ton (Marshall, 1995), Daunte Culpepper (Central Florida, 1995), just to name a

few.

McNeese has racked up 188 wins at home in the history of Cowboy Stadium

and has posted at .691 (188-85-5) home field winning percentage.

The Cowboys have had nine unbeaten seasons at home with three of those

coming since the year 2000 (2-0 in 2005, 8-0 in 2002 and 5-0 in 2000).

Since 2000, McNeese is 62-19 (.770) in Cowboy Stadium.

COWBOY STADIUM McNeese State debuted its new GeoMax2 infilled “replicated grass” playing field in 2008. The project was financed by longtime university supporter Robert Noland and at his request the field was named the Louis Bonnette Field in honor of the school’s longtime sports information director. GSE GeoSport Surfaces, which is the largest geo-synthetics manufacturer in the world and the inventors of all rubber infill “repli-cated grass” installed the turf. McNeese booster clubs - the Cowboy Club, the Quarterback Club and the Petrochem Athletic Association - provided additional funding for the project. Bonnette retired from McNeese State in June of 2012 after serving 46 years as the school’s first and only Sports Information Director. A native of Pineville and graduate of Louisiana Tech, Bonnette has received numerous professional honors in his career. Twice he served as president of the Louisiana Sports Writers Association and the LSWA presented him with its highest honor, the Mac Russo Award. He was inducted into the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame in the sports journalism division and in 2009; he was inducted into the College Sports Information Directors of America Hall of Fame; is a member of the McNeese State Athletic Hall of Fame and the South-land Conference Hall of Honor. Bonnette worked his 500th consecutive football game on October 24, 2009 and holds the CoSIDA (College Sports Information Di-rectors of America) record for most consecutive football games worked, a number that stands at 526 and is expected to continue.

SATURDAY NIGHTS IN COWBOY STADIUMMcNeese football games are traditionally one of the

most attended events among Football Championship Subdivision teams.

In 2013, McNeese ranked first in the Southland Con-ference and 19th in the nation in the FCS ranks with a per game average attendance of 12,072 and a total at-tendance of 84,506 in seven home games.

The Cowboys have led the SLC in average attendance in two straight years and six out of the last seven sea-sons.

JOLIE BLONDE: This is a popular Cajun waltz often referred to as the “Cajun National Anthem.” The song was made famous by Harry Choates in the late 1940s. The McNeese Band began playing the song in 1951 under Band Director Eddie See. In 1970, “Jo-

song.

ROWDY: In 1982, “Rowdy” was born. Rowdy was named after Clint East-wood’s character on the “Rawhide” television show. According to legend, Rowdy was on a cattle drive out west when he stopped in Lake Charles and decided to stay.



SATURDAY NIGHTS IN COWBOY STADIUM

TAILGATING: Fridays before gamedays and begin their cooking of various cajun meals. On gameday, lots around

MYSTERY RIDER: McNeese is well known for its strong gameday traditions. Since 2007, a growing tradition was started after the “Horse and Rider” statue was put on the corner of Ryan and Sale street on the McNeese cam-pus. The “Horse and Rider” statue comes to life every Saturday. After the statue comes to life, the horse by the name of Moondancer and the Mystery Rider march down Common Street to Cowboy Stadium. During pre-game, Moon-

scan the crowd intently. It is at that time that the Mystery Rider is making it know that he is watching you, making sure you are a Cowboy fan, and making sure that you are there sup-porting your Cowboy football team. After the Mystery Rider makes an impression in Cowboy

up the remaining people in the area who are not at the game.

BLUE WALL: Established in the 1978 season, the “Blue Wall” was named for the McNeese defensive unit that allowed just 9.8 points per game - sixth in the nation, and 15th in total de-fense, giving up 259.5 yards per contest. That defensive until included players such as John Miller, Billy Joe Davenport, Bryan Hicks, Tom Murphy, Tim Tregle and Tim Harris. In 1979, the Blue Wall was anchored by the four down linemen - Rusty Guilbeau, Clay Carroll, Leroy Gedward and Mark Helms. COWBELLS: Saturday night in Cowboy Sta-dium isn’t complete without the clanging of the hundreds of cowbells being used by fans. The cowbells have been an important part of the gameday experience for decades.

COWBOY WALK: Prior to each home game, the Cowboys are dropped off by bus near the entrance of the tailgating area where they begin

who are there to cheer them on to victory as well as asking for autographs.

BRINGING THE WOOD: “Bringing the Wood” is a football saying that stands for big hits and big plays. This can be done throughout prac-tices and most importantly during games. The Cowboys started the tradition of bringing out an actual piece of wood to honor a player that dem-onstrates the act on that particular week. Prior to the game, Head Strength Coach Zeb Hawk-ins picks an individual to lead the team out the tunnel. The wood is a physical reminder that one must always be ready to play and always give 100% effort on each and every play.



2014 SEASON PREVIEWQUARTERBACK

The Cowboys lose three-and-a-half year starter and record breaker

Briscoe, along with redshirt freshmen Grant Ashcraft and Joe Lissard,

transfer from Kansas State who rushed for over 800 yards last season and earned honorable mention All-Big 12 honors, McNeese should be looking pretty good despite having someone new under center.

TIGHT END This is another position where the Cowboys lost a starter in Nic

Jacobs, who left school early to enter the NFL Draft and was signed as a free agent with the New Orleans Saints. McNeese signed Deondre Skin-ner in the summer, a 6-3, 247 freshman from Patterson who inked with Houston out of high school, and then Tulane, but never enrolled at either. Skinner will compete for the starting spot with returning sophomore Zach Hetrick, who has been named to the Southland Conference preseason

running routes and should give McNeese an added weapon on offense. Also in the mix will be senior Kendale Thomas, who caught six passes for 73 yards last season.

RUNNING BACKS Last season was one of the best rushing attacks in school history be-

hind the legs of graduated senior Marcus Wiltz and speedy sophomore Kelvin Bennett. The duo combined to rush for 2,161 yards and 15 touch-down. Add in sophomore power back Dylan Long’s 335 yards and that

of 25 times.Wiltz is gone but Bennett (774 yds, 4 tds) and Long ( 335 yds, 10 tds)

but with the addition of SEC running backs Nate Holmes (University of Ar-kansas) and Derrick Milton (Mississippi State), this could be the makings

Holmes is as fast as they come and didn’t take long to show his speed

for a score.Long and Milton will provide the power game needed in short yard

situations and junior Steele Merritt has switched sides of the ball from defensive back and will be playing H-back this season.

WIDE RECEIVER The Cowboys lost team’s receiving leader from 2013 in Diontae

thought to be senior Ernest Celestie (31-565, 5 tds) was granted another year of eligibility by the NCAA for a year he lost when at Texas Tech as a freshman, and Wes Briscoe (9-115, td) , who was injured in the fourth game of the season and missed the remainder of the year, will return after being granted a medical redshirt.

The two will be joined by returning senior Jereon McGilvery (11-219, 2 tds), sophomores David Bush (20-194, td) and Damon Gladney (7-114, td), as well as freshman Kent Shelby, who was impressive during August practice last year but was ruled ineligible right before the season started due to NCAA clearinghouse issues. Shelby could be the team’s No. 1 go-to receiver this fall.

OFFENSIVE LINE During August practice last season, the expectations of the offensive

line wasn’t as high as the year before. Afterall, the Cowboys lost all but one starter from the 2012 season.

Two players - Nick Gorman and Quentin Marsh - switched sides of the ball and All-American Arinze Agada took the young lads under his belt and helped mold a unit that became one of the best in the Southland Confer-ence.

Fast forward to 2014. Agada is gone but four starters return as well as a host of newcomers that should see ample playing time and will give the Cowboys the depth they haven’t had in years.

Sports Network, caught the attention of several NFL scout last season and will be looking to anchor the line this year.

Both Gorman and Marsh earned conference honorable mention hon--

son.

2014 SEASON PREVIEWSECONDARY

The 2014 Cowboys’ secondary will have a bit of old mixed in with the young.

-boys in tackles last year.

McNeese lost Guy Morgan, Terence Cahee and Ryan Bronson, but hard hitters such as Brent Spikes (31 tackles, 1 TFL) and Gabe Hamner (48 tackles, 0.5 TFL, 2 Int) return in addition to a slew of redshirt and true freshmen that will give the secondary the speed it hasn’t seen in a few years.

DEFENSIVE LINEThe Cowboys will stack up pretty well on the “Blue Wall” for

the second consecutive year with all-conference selection Everett Ellefsen (44 tackles, 5 sacks, 7 TFL) and Kevin Dorn (52 tackles, 5 sacks, 7.5 TFL) leading the way.

Joining the two on the line will be senior Sean Brown (30 tack-les, 1 sack, 3 TFL) and newcomer Brian Hine, who is as intense and phsyical as a defensive lineman can be. In addition, the Cow-boys have depth with senior Danyel Hunter (23 tackles, 0.5 sacks, 0.5 TFL), juniors Cameron Smith (13 tackles, 2 sacks, 1 TFL) and Krishon Seastrunk, and some younger players who are expected to be in the mix.

LINEBACKERSReturning starter Deonte Thompson is back to start for the

third straight season after a year that saw him record 31 tackles, make a sack and get 3.5 tackles for a loss along with a pass inter-ception.

Alongside him will be preseason all-conference selection Bo Brown (75 tackles) who led the team with 12 tackles for a loss and

Wallace Scott (34 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 TFL) will get some time in the middle and a true freshman or two could see some action as well.

SPECIAL TEAMSJean Breaux, a preseason all-conference selection, returns for

his junior campaign and will handle the punting and kickoffs once

called upon to handle that in the fall since the Cowboys lost one-year player Ryan Rome.

Spencer, the team’s single-season kick retuner record holder in yards (853) and touchdowns (3), is gone but sophomore Khalil Thomas (19-467, td) who split time with Spencer back deep, re-turns. Thomas could be joined deep by Holmes.

COACHING STAFF

One of the most successful coaches in the NCAA’s FCS divi-sion, McNeese’s Matt Viator has guided the Cowboys to winning seasons in all eight of his years at the helm and is one of three head coaches in school history to never post a losing season, joining Les DeVall (1957-65) and Ernie Duplechin (1979-81).

He’s the only coach Southland Conference history to have a winning season each year in his career with a minimum of eight seasons under his belt.

In his eight seasons, Viator has compiled a 62-27 record for a winning percentage of .697, passing for Cowboys’ head coach Bobby Keasler (.696) for sixth on the SLC’s all-time career coach winning percentages. He’s recorded a league mark of 41-14 (.745), has won three conference championships and made four FCS playoff appearances, including a second round showing in 2013.

That 2013 season saw the Cowboys post its second 10-win regular season under Viator, eighth in school history, when they

His 50th win came in exciting fashion as the Cowboys defeated conference foe Stephen F. Austin 35-24 on Homecoming night on Oct. 27, 2012.

Viator is the 14th head coach in Mc-Neese history. His 6-2 rookie record includ-ed a 5-1 mark in league play as the team

His teams have been ranked in the top 25 national polls in six of the last eight sea-sons and climbed to as high as No. 4 for a couple weeks late in 2013.

Prior to his becoming head coach, Via-tor had served the university as offensive coordinator and is regarded as one of the top Division I offensive minds.

The Cowboys have ranked among the national leaders in offense for nine of the past 13 years and the university has also produced the Southland Conference’s top offensive performer four of the last nine seasons.

His offenses have led the league in

records for total points scored in a season (520) and ended the regular season ranked No. 4 in the nation (1st in the Southland Conference) with a 42.5 points scored per game average. The Cowboys also set a school record by scoring 50 or more points

In 2009, Viator coached the nation’s leading scorer in tailback Toddrick Pend-land, and three years ago, had the No. 2 punt returner in the country in Darius Carey.

Before he joined McNeese, Viator was one of the top prep coaches in Louisiana, producing an 81-37 won-lost record, win-

He joined McNeese in 1999 as linebacker coach and was made offensive coordinator in 2000, the Cowboys leading the league in both scoring offense and total offense that year.

He is married and wife Schantel, is a school teacher. His father is the late Nolan Viator, a former Cowboy coach, player (QB, MVP) and is a member of the McNeese Hall of Fame.

COACHING STAFF

Lance Guidry brought back the D.W.A. (Defense With Attitude) when he was named defensive coordinator in the spring of 2013.

A native of Welsh, Guidry is also the assistant head coach and coaches the defensive backs.

This is the fourth stint for Guidry, a 1995 McNeese graduate, on the Cowboys staff. He served as a graduate assistant in 1994 then returned as the school’s defensive coordinator from 2000-04, and in 2008, coached the defensive backs.

In his eight combined years previously on the McNeese coaching staff, the Cowboys have compiled a 70-29 record, including a 37-12 mark in Southland Conference games. McNeese won three conference championships during that span, made six FCS playoff appearances, and played in the 2002 FCS National Championship game.

“I was real excited when Matt (Viator) called to talk about me coming back,” said Guidry on his return to McNeese. “My loyalty is to Coach Viator and to McNeese. It’s like when momma calls you to come back home, you go.”

In 2013, Guidry led a defensive unit that saw six players earn all-conference honors and two more named to the all-Louisiana team.

The DWA ranked third in the league with 13 pass interceptions and was second with three of those picks returned for touchdowns. The unitl also posted 21 take-aways on the year.

Guidry served as defensive coordinator at Western Kentucky in 2011 and 2012 and was named interim head coach on December 8 of 2012 to lead WKU against Central Michigan in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl in Detroit, Mich., on December 26, a game the Hilltoppers dropped 24-21.

He coached three players while at WKU - DE Quanterous Smith, LB Andrew Jackson and S Jonathan Dowling - that went on to be selected in the NFL Draft.

Guidry has experience in the role as a head coach, as the former assistant coach at Miami (Ohio) led the Redhawks to a 35-21 victory over Middle Tennessee as the interim head coach in the 2011 GoDaddy.com

double-digit wins in consecutive seasons.Guidry helped orchestrate a similar turnaround since arriving on the

Hill in 2011, helping WKU to back-to-back winning seasons in 2011 and

His 2012 Hilltopper defense was a force nationally, ranking in the top 40 in seven different national defensive categories. The Guidry-led defense ranked 23rd nationally in total defense (344.42) and 12th in the nation in tackles for loss per game (7.42).

His squad also ranked at the top of four defensive categories in the

rushing defense (136.6), scoring defense (25.6), passing defense (206.2) and interceptions (13).

Under Gudiry’s guidance, WKU senior defensive end Quanterus

Smith put together a record-breaking 2012 season, accumulating 12.5 sacks and 18.5 tackles for loss on his way to being named the Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Year. Smith’s sack total in 2012 was just one away from setting a single-season Sun Belt Conference record, and his 24.0 career sacks tied the conference record. In two years under Guidry, Smith racked up 20 of his 24 career sacks. Guidry’s defense has shown up in big games, including games against the nation’s elite. In a week two matchup against defending nation champion Alabama, the WKU defense held the Crimson Tide to just 103 yards rushing, which was the team’s lowest output of the 2012 season. The 103 rushing yards were more than 120 yards less than the team’s season average, as

on the ground en route to a BCS National Championship. The Crimson Tide averaged just over three yards per carry against WKU in that game. A 1995 graduate of McNeese, Guidry joined the Miami staff after serving as the defensive secondary coach at McNeese State in 2008. A veteran coach in Louisiana football’s high school ranks, Guidry served as secondary coach at Leesville High School in 1995 and 1996, helping lead the Wampus Cats to the state championship game in 1995. He also coached defensive backs at Carencro (La.) High School for three seasons (1997-99), then returned years later to serve as the Golden Bears’ head coach (2005-07). In between his stints at Carencro, Guidry served as defensive co-ordinator and coached the secondary at McNeese State (2000-04). The Cowboys reached the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs in four consecutive seasons (2000-03), won three straight Southland Conference championships (2001, 2002, 2003) during that stretch, and lost to WKU in the 2002 FCS National Championship Game. During those years, he helped produce such all-Americans as Joe Judge, Keith Smith and Hadley Prince. Guidry was also a team captain, four-year letterman (1990-93) and all-conference defensive back at McNeese State and was a part of two conference championship teams (1991, 1993). He and his wife, Starlet, have four children: Janzen, Madison, Alexis and Kaitlyn, and one grandson, Ethan.

“McNeese hit a home run with Bruce Hemphill! A great plus for Bruce is that he is from Louisiana, played football at LSU and worked at LSU and Louisiana Tech. He knows what it takes to build a successful program and he will lead the McNeese athletics department in the right direction. I have known Bruce since 1982 and our paths have crossed several times. He has held a wide range of positions in collegiate athletics from recruiting to admin-istrative and he knows how to get things done. Bruce understands the role that athletics plays in the overall success of the university. He is a people person and he will do a great job with fundraising and moving the McNeese athletics department forward. He is without a doubt the best choice for the McNeese athletics director!”- Carl Torbush, Head Football Coach - East Tennessee State University; Former Head Football Coach - University of North Carolina

“What a tremendous opportunity for Bruce. Bruce has a wealth of experience at a lot of different levels in athletics. He has great integrity and loyalty. I know he’s very excited about being the athletics director at McNeese, with his ties to South Louisiana this is a perfect fit.”- Mack Brown, Head Football Coach - Former Head Coach - University of Texas; Former Head Football Coach - University of North Carolina

“Bruce is an excellent choice to lead McNeese athletics. He is a ‘can do’ guy and during his time at Wyoming I was impressed with his professionalism, people skills and positive out-look. He has an effective public presence and was very engaged with fundraising. Bruce will build support for McNeese State University and McNeese athletics.”- Dr. Philip Dubois, Chancellor - University of North Carolina Charlotte;

SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE Now in its sixth decade of service, the Southland Conference continues to be a model of innovation, stability and consistent achievement as it celebrates the aca-demic and athletic accomplishments of its member institutions. Having commemorated its 50th anniversary in 2013, the Southland Conference has transformed itself into a dynamic and respected consortium of 13 member uni-versities in three states. Beginning with a historic meeting of five institutions in Dallas on March 15, 1963, the Southland Conference set on an extraordinary course that has proven successful well into its five decades of existence. The successful transformation continues, as the Southland Conference welcomed four additional members in 2013: Abilene Christian University, Houston Baptist Uni-versity, the University of Incarnate Word in San Antonio, and the University of New Orleans. In addition to its newest members, the Southland also consists of the University of Central Arkansas, Lamar University, McNeese State University, Nicholls State Uni-versity, Northwestern State University, Sam Houston State University, Southeastern Louisiana University, Stephen F. Austin State University and Texas A&M University-

Corpus Christi. An original Southland member from 1963-73, Abilene Christian rejoined the league as one of the most decorated athletic programs in NCAA history, and the addition of Houston Baptist, UIW and New Orleans gives the Southland a regular competitive presence in the key metropolitan areas of Houston, San Antonio and New Or-leans. Southland cities encompass approximately 14 million people, and six of its television markets rank among the top 100 in the U.S. All told, the membership of the Southland encompasses nearly 140,000 current students and an alumni base of nearly 800,000. Famous alums from current Southland Conference schools include former CBS news anchor Dan Rather (Sam Houston State), NBA executive Joe Dumars (McNeese State), ABC news anchor Robin Roberts (Southeastern Louisiana), Major League Baseball star Wade Miley (Southeastern Louisiana), NBA legend Scottie Pippen (Central Arkansas), and track and field Olympians Kenta Bell (Northwestern State), and Bobby Morrow and Billy Olson (both Abilene Christian). Other notable alums from current members include Grammy Award-winning musicians Frank Ocean (New Orleans), Don Henley and Rodney Crowell (both Stephen F. Austin), and Ronnie Dunn (Abilene Christian), tele-vision personality and actress Ellen DeGeneres (New Orleans), current NFL standouts Lardarius Webb (Nicholls State), Terrence McGee (Northwestern State), and Daniel Manning (Abilene Christian), professional golfers Shawn Stefani and Chris Stroud (both Lamar) and Colin Montgomerie (HBU), award-winning filmmaker Richard Lin-klater (Sam Houston State), American Idol winner Kris Allen (Central Arkansas), NFL Hall of Famer Jackie Harris (Northwestern State), former NFL standouts Bobby Hebert (Northwestern State), Gary Barbaro (Nicholls State), Wilbert Montgomery (Abilene Christian) and Gary Reasons (Northwestern State), former MLB stars Darryl Hamil-ton (Nicholls State) and Kevin Millar (Lamar), NCAA football coach Charlie Strong (Central Arkansas), actors John Larroquette (New Orleans), Ricardo Chavira (UIW) and Jesse Borrego (UIW), and the late NFL coaching legend O.A. “Bum” Phillips (Lamar and Stephen F. Austin). The Southland sponsors 17 championship sports, all at the NCAA Division I level. The eight men’s sports in-clude baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track and field. The women compete for nine championships in basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball. The conference earns automatic qualification to NCAA championships in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, men’s and women’s golf, women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. Continuing its tradition of innovation, the league launched the Southland Conference Television Network in the fall of 2008 and has broadcast more than 160 events. The network has expanded its reach to roughly 13 million households throughout Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma in recent years, and has also gained national viewership through ESPN3 and Fox College Sports. In its first six years, the network has received recognition for its work, earning numerous College Sports Media and Telly Awards. The Southland Conference, in conjunction with the city of Frisco, Texas, and Hunt Sports Group, also serves as the host to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Game in Frisco, which has been home to the conference headquarters since 2006. The game is played at Frisco’s Toyota Stadium, and after a successful three-year run, the partnership was rewarded with a three-year renewal to serve as the national championship host site through the 2015 season. Southland Conference football ranks among the best Football Championship Subdivision leagues in the nation, and enjoys an annual expectation of competing for the national championship with multiple teams ad-vancing to the NCAA playoffs each year. In 2013, three Southland teams – Southeastern Louisiana, McNeese State and Sam Houston State – all qualified for the NCAA Division I Football Championship, and in 2011 and 2012, Sam Houston advanced to the national championship game. Also, in 2002 and 2003, McNeese State finished the regular season ranked No. 1 in the nation, and advanced to the 2002 national championship contest. The conference has been represented in eight national championship games since the league joined the FCS (formerly I-AA) in 1982. All told, Southland teams have played in 109 Division I playoff games in 32 years, winning 53 of the contests. Historically, the Southland’s successful football heritage has sustained itself through numerous member-ship and classification changes. The Southland joined the NCAA College Division in 1964, and was designated as NCAA Division II in 1973 before joining Division I in 1975. The Southland was an NCAA Division I-A league from 1978-81, before joining the ranks of FCS in 1982, its home ever since. During its tenure as a Division I and I-A conference, the Southland Conference initiated the startup of the Shreveport, La.-based Independence Bowl in 1976. The Southland representative served as the host team of the bowl until 1980, compiling a 2-3 record in those contests. McNeese State, which has made 15 appearances in the national playoffs, also played in the 1997 NCAA Division I Championship game, while Stephen F. Austin played in the 1989 title contest and has six playoff appear-ances, including 2009 and 2010. Sam Houston State has earned seven trips to the football, while Northwestern State has played in the playoffs six times. Nicholls State has participated three times in the playoffs, and Central Arkansas has made consecutive playoff appearances in 2011 and 2012. On five occasions, the Southland has placed three teams in the NCAA playoffs.

SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE HALL OF HONOR

Former coach Bobby Keasler inducted into Southland Conference Hall of Honor

Bobby Keasler, McNeese’s all-time win-

ningest football coach, became the seventh

McNeese Cowboy to be inducted into the

Southland Hall of Honor when he was for-

mally introduced in May.

Keasler, who compiled a 78-34-2 all-time

record in nine seasons at McNeese, including a

43-13-2 mark in conference games, won four

league championships (1991, 1993, 1995,

1997), made seven 1-AA playoff appearances,

and is still the only head football coach in con-

ference history to win Coach of the Year hon-

ors a total of five times.

From 1990-98 Keasler, who last fall was

named the league’s 1990s Coach of the De-

cade, coached his teams to eight 1-AA playoff

wins, including guiding the Cowboys to the

1997 1-AA National Championship game where McNeese lost 10-9 to a Jim Tressell coached Youngstown State squad.

His 1995 team completed the regular season with a perfect 11-0 record and ranked No. 1 in the nation throughout the regular season. That team’s

season would come to an end in the semi-final round of the playoffs when the Cowboys fell to Marshall, who was quarterbacked by a young Chad

Pennington.

A native of New Iberia, Keasler was named the Louisiana coach of the year three times. He coached 53 first-team All-Southland players and 16

first-team All-Americans. He coached seven Southland players of the year and four Southland rookies of the year. He compiled an 8-7 record in the

FCS playoffs and in four of his nine seasons as head coach, the Cowboys won 10 or more games. His teams averaged 8.7 wins per season. Keasler, who

also served the university as director of athletics, was inducted into the McNeese Sports Hall of Fame in 2006.

He became the seventh McNeese individual to be inducted into the Southland Hall of Honor, joining his former quarterback Kerry Joseph who

was inducted in 2012. Other McNeese personnel in the hall of honor includes Moe O’Brien (1999), Louis Bonnette and Bob Hayes (both in 2007), Joe

Dumars (2009), and Sonny Watkins (2011).

2013 SEASON REVIEWThe 2013 football season for McNeese State was one for the record books. McNeese qualified for its Southland Conference record 15th FCS Playoffs

and received a first round bye. The Cowboys won 10 games in the regular season for the eighth time in school history and second time under head

season going 8-0

McNeese swept through eight opponents dur-ing the 1963 season starting with victory over Louisiana Tech and ending with a 14-7 triumph over Southwestern Louisiana to win the Gulf State Conference title. The four players pictured - Tommy Thompson, Charles Anastasio, Darrell Lester and Merlin Walet - had a lot to do with the outcome of the season as they led the Cowboys in all offensive categories and also played defense.

Buford Jordan began his run to glory for the Cowboys this night as he rushed for 111 yards and two touchdowns. It was the start of an outstanding career, one that would lead him to all-American and conference player of the year honors at McNeese and on to a career in the professional ranks. He became McNeese’s all-time leading rusher and earned a place in the university’s Hall of Fame.

Tony Citizen’s debut for the Cowboys was an outstanding one as he ran for a school and NCAA freshman record 304 yards in this victory over Prairie View. He carried the ball 30 times in this game and he scored four touchdowns, the longest 70 yards. He was also featured in Sports Il-lustrated for this effort.

Quarterback Jim Morvant scored the winning touchdown with 2:16 left in this game. He also led the game in rushing with 81 yards. USL had held a 12-7 lead into the third quarter but the Cowboys rebounded with two final period scores. The win not only gave the Cowboys the SLC title but put them into the very first Independence Bowl game.

In this 1-AA playoff game, Kerry Joseph set a McNeese school

total offense record by rushing for 177 yards and passing for

175. He accounted for two touchdowns rushing (83 and 1

yards) and one td passing (83 yards to Terrence Davis). This

victory put the Cowboys into the quarterfinals of the 1-AA

playoffs. Also in this game, tailback Henry Fields rushed

for 141 yards and a score and Davis caught four passes for

145 yards.

Don Stump began a Hall of Fame kicking career for the Cowboys in this game. His two field goals car-

ried the Cowboys to this victory over Tulsa and for the entire season, Stumps kicking would provide

the winning points in four other games. McNeese would go on to post an 11-0 (only the second in

school history at that point) regular season record and play in the Independence Bowl.

Stephen Starring had one of his better games in this contest

as he rushed for 234 yards on 25 carries and two tds. He

also added another 93 yards in the air and another td,

netting 327 yards. The Cowboys had 465 yards rushing in

this game and 558 total.

2007November 17McNeese 41, Central Arkansas 14Cowboys complete an undefeated season and win the SLC title

In only his second season as head coach Matt Viator led

the Cowboys to the fourth undefeated regular season

record in school history. The Cowboys closed out an 11-0 regular season record with this 41-14

victory over Central Arkansas in Cowboy Stadium. They scored in every period and produced 457

total yards. The victory also gave them their second straight Southland Conference title

-dence Bowl GameA 25 yard explosion up the middle by fullback Oliver Hadnot

with only 45 seconds left gave the Cowboys this victory over

Tulsa in the very first Independence Bowl game. McNeese had

trailed throughout and had entered the game with 16 lettermen left at home. Jan Peebles booted

two field goals and QB Terry McFarland was voted the player of the game.

for the Cowboys

1995November 18 McNeese 31, Nicholls State 6

Henry Fields ran for 121 yards and Kerry Joseph passed for 102 yards and a td as the Cowboys completed an undefeated season in this victory on the road.

Bobby Keasler coached the Cowboys to the third undefeated regular season in school history and won the Southland Conference title. The Cowboys went on to win 13 straight games before falling to Marshall in the semifinal round of the 1-AA playoffs. That year Henry Fields ran for 1,206 yards, Kerry Joseph passed for 2,485 yards, Terrance Davis caught 50 passes for 1,108 yards, Jose Larios scored 100 points kicking, Zack Bronson made five pass intercepts and Chad Reeves recorded 119 tackles.
