Willie Totten & Jerry Rice - Satellite Express

We’re sending out a birthday cheer to our guy, Mr. Jerry Rice. Let’s go back to October 13th, 1984 during Jerry’s senior season when the 4-0 Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils were taking on the Grambling Tigers led by the great coach Eddie Robinson. Jerry & his main man, Quarterback, Willie ‘Satellite’ Totten were setting the record books on fire that 1984 season. Through the first 4 games the Devils were averaging a crazy 57 points a game! Willie had thrown 30 TD’s already, and Jerry had caught 14 of them. Valley would beat Grambling that day 48-36, for the school’s first victory ever over the Tigers. By season’s end The ‘Satellite Express’ had set all new Division I-AA records, with Willie’s 58 TD’s along with Jerry’s 112 catches, for 1,845 yds, and an insane 27 touchdowns.
