The largest margin of victory by Southern Arkansas was in 2000, an 86-27 win in Arkadelphia, while the Reddies’ most decisive win was the 63-0 shutout in Arkadelphia in 1916. Southern Arkansas holds a 19-14-1 advantage in the series in games played in Magnolia, including a 34-13 loss to HSU in 1991 that Henderson State had to forfeit, while the Reddies hold a 26-15 edge in Arkadelphia and 1-0 at a neutral site of Hope in 1928. The Coaches Hired as the 19th head coach at Southern Arkansas in December 2008, Bill Keopple (Central Arkansas, 1982) is in his fourth season with the Muleriders, where he is now 13-24 overall.

Henderson State coach Scott Maxfield (Louisiana Tech, 1984) is in his eighth season with the Reddies and has compiled a 47-34 mark during his tenure.

Turrentine serving as the inaugural head coach in 1911. The team played only two games that first year, losing both in Magnolia by shutouts, 19-0 to Texarkana (Texas) High School and 9-0 to Camden High School. The team was commonly called the Magnolia Aggies until the early 1920’s, but Turrentine, who went on to coach for a total of seven years, is credited with providing the moniker of “Muleriders” following the team’s final game of the 1912 season, a Thanksgiving date at Fordyce High School. A few days after that game, members of the team rode mules to Coach Turrentine’s home to discuss their final game and he greeted them with “My Mule Riders”. That was the first known time the term was used, and the name eventually stuck, changing from two words to the compound “Muleriders”. SAU is now 435-414-30 in its 95th year of football since the first season of play in 1911, and is currently 7-5 all-time in Great American Conference games and 201-198-11 against teams currently in the GAC.

Record Watch 1Southern Arkansas junior starting quarterback Tyler Sykorahas continued his assault on the Mulerider record book allyear, setting four career school marks and tying one each ofhis own season and single-game records thus far. His fourtouchdown passes last week against Southern Nazarene liftedhim to 19 on the year, matching his own record from lastseason, and he should better that as soon as Saturday.
Sykora should be able to garner at least one more career recordthis season, as he currently has 4,774 yards of total offenseand needs 569 yards to tie former quarterback Ted Williams’5,343 set from 2000-2003; and should break three more of hisown season records from a year ago, needing 64 passattempts, 38 completions and 345 yards to better last year’s294 attempts, 178 completions and 2,254 yards.
The southpaw currently owns 11 school records, includingfour career and season marks, and three single-game records.
Record Watch 2Mulerider junior running back Mark Johnson’s one touchdownlast week against Southern Nazarene enabled him to tie thecareer rushing touchdown record of 27 set by Torrence Jones(2001-2004). His 507 career rushing attempts are just 90 shy ofGerald Pride’s 597 (1979-1982).
Of Interest* Saturday’s game between Southern Arkansas and No. 9
Henderson State is setting up to be possibly the biggest game inMagnolia since the ninth-ranked 2003 Mulerider squad hosted No.2 Valdosta State on September 27 that year with an announcedcrowd of 7,001 attending. SAU held a 17-13 lead after three quartersof play in that contest, before the Blazers came roaring back withfour unanswered touchdowns in the fourth quarter and a 41-17 win.
* Southern Arkansas’ 6-1 mark on the season is its best sincethe 1999 team held the same record. This year’s team is gainingsome national recognition, having received votes in the past threeAFCA polls, including 14 this week that would have them ranked32nd if the poll extended past 25 teams. Prior to this year, the lasttime the Muleriders were ranked or received votes in the officialAFCA poll was in 2004.
The Reddies, ranked ninth this week in the AFCA poll and14th in D2Football.com, also appeared in the first edition of theNCAA Division II region polls released this week, coming in atsecond in Super Region Three.
* SAU will be trying to snap a five-game losing streak toHenderson State this week that dates back to 2006, with three ofthose losses coming in Magnolia. Prior to 2006, Southern Arkansashad won three consecutive and nine of the 10 previous meetingsbetween the two teams.
* Mulerider fans will recognize two familiar faces on the Reddiecoaching staff in defensive coordinator Carey Baker and linebackerscoach Jason Smelser. Baker, in his third season at HSU, began hiscoaching career at SAU in 1993 as a graduate assistant and thenserved five years as defensive coordinator from 2000-2004. Smelserwas a four-year letterman and three-year starting running back atSouthern Arkansas from 1995-98, earning second team All-GulfSouth Conference honors his senior year. He then spent two years(1999-2000) as a graduate assistant before serving as defensive linecoach form 2001-2004.
