Overall record: 23-4

Tennessee Tech 35

Murray State 17

–Tech’s offensive combination of QB Lee Sweeney, RB Derek White and WR Larry Shipp is too much for Murray State ‘s defense.

Eastern Kentucky 20

Jacksonville State 14

–Colonels get revenge from ’06 as their ground game runs over Gamecocks’ defense.

Eastern Illinois 30

Indiana State 7

–Indiana State has lost to two OVC teams this season. Eastern makes it three in a row Saturday.

Southern 27

Tennessee State 21

–Tigers lose to second SWAC team this season, as Jaguars’ offense proves to be too tough.

Southeast Missouri 35

Samford 24

Both teams are 2-1, but have played less than stellar opponents in their victories. This game will pit offense versus offense. SEMO’s ground game wins out.

Austin Peay 38

Tennessee-Martin 21

–Austin Peay gets a leg up in hunt for first York Trophy, and UT-Martin remains the only winless OVC team when the Governors roll over Skyhawks.
