CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – The Austin Peay football team picked up another big conference win last weekend over West Georgia. That win improved the team to 6-2 overall and 2-1 in conference play as they prepare for the stretch run of the season.
This Saturday, the Govs are on the road again. The team is heading down to Florence, Alabama, to take on rival North Alabama. The Lions enter the rivalry game with a 4-3 record and a 1-1 conference record after losing a heartbreaker to Abilene Christian last weekend.
This will be the 24th meeting between Austin Peay and North Alabama all time. The Lions have a 13-10 lead in the series, but the Govs have won four meetings in a row, including a big 56-28 win last season. North Alabama isn’t ranked right now, but they certainly would be with a win over the Govs. The Govs enter at No. 9 in both polls…
