Gulf South Conference D2 Football Scores Update - 8:40 p.m. ET

First Half Score: West Alabama 7-3 West Florida

Defense reigned supreme so far tonight in Pensacola from the Argos in front of a sold-out crowd at Pen-Air Field. The Argonauts are looking for their redshirt freshman Marcus Stokes to get the ball moving on the ground and more completions through the air. Arceneaux has had his moments for the Tigers between great defensive stops.

Defense Continues To Lead Charge For UWF In First Half

A nice play by the Argos defense holds the Tigers to a 4th down to punt.

Bounce Off Punt Gives Argos An Easy Shot At Endzone, UWA 7-3 UWF 

After a UWA punt bounced backward towards their kicker giving the Argos the ball on UWA30, we have a first down Argos! Pass completed from Stokes to Jabari Murphy for 15 yards. A few stops later, the Tigers would force the Argos to settle for the field goal. Just more than 2 minutes remain in the first half.

Three And Out, Argos Offensive Disappointment Continues

Gregory continues to do his job with four massive punts for the Argonauts on their home turf. The passing game continues to be a weak spot for Stokes.

Lucky Bounce On Punt Leads To UWA With Ball On Own 1

A great punt by Logan Gregory lands on the 5-yard line and takes a sideways bounce to give the Tigers the ball in the shadow of their own goalpost.

End Of First Quarter: UWA 0-0 UWF

Both defenses have kept things locked down for Arceneaux and Stokes. A few running plays have broken through for the Tigers but most of the offensive gains have been held to 6-7 yards. The passing game seems to be a soft spot for both teams with overthrown passes and near-interceptions.

Arceneaux Keeps It Alive

After a rollout to his left, Arceneaux is able to draw in enough defenders with his feet to give Caeleb Bass the room to catch a 12-yard pass for the first down. It seems like we'll be seeing a lot of Arceneaux passing to Bass tonight.

Stokes And Argos Go 3 And Out - Punt

Stokes got lucky after a dropped interception nearly put the first points on the board—and they wouldn't be coming from the Argonauts offense.

Penalty Calls Balance Things Out For UWA

After a short pass from Arceneaux to Caelab Bass, a holding call on UWA leaves them with first and 20. On a long pass, defensive pass interference gives the Tigers the ball at the UWA 40 with downs reset. A 10-yard sack by Kenneth Martin forced 3rd and 20 which was quickly stopped and turned into a punt. Argos ball on the 25.

Marcus Stokes And Argos Left Unsatisfied With First Possession

UWA's Trevon Stanford makes a huge sack on redshirt freshman Marcus Stokes for a loss 8 yards behind the line of scrimmage. Not the start that the home crowd wanted to see tonight. Let's see if they can reel it back in on defense.

UWA Receives Ball To Start, Earns Quick First Down But Punts Shortly After

UWA starts tonight's game with the ball from the 24. After three quick short plays, the Argos make a big third down stop after two runs for loss and stuffing a QB run to the outside for no gain by Spencer Arceneaux in the Tigers' first drive of the game.
