The Austin Peay State University football team hosts Easter Illinois (1-10) at 2:00pm, Saturday, November 23rd, at Fortera Stadium with a ton at stake.

A Governors win and a Southeast Missouri win in the final week of the season means the Govs share the title but clinch the automatic berth thanks to their 28-24 win over the Redhawks.

A Governors win and a Southeast Missouri loss means an outright OVC title for Austin Peay football – the first in 42 years.
