After slow start, ASU Rams now on verge of SIAC title game

 ALBANY, Georgia -- Three weeks ago, the Albany State Golden Rams were 1-4 and seemed to be mired in a second straight season to forget.

But after three straight wins, the Golden Rams can clinch the division with a win over rival Fort Valley State.

The intensity always turns up when it's Fountain City Classic week in Albany, but this year's game has extra implications other than just bragging rights.

With a win, head coach Mike White's team is headed to Atlanta to battle it out for the SIAC Title.

"We're playing for the chance to play for the championship," says head coach Mike White. "This is what you wanted, and this is what we got Saturday."

"We're just preparing like every other week," says senior LB Marcavious Dudley. We're not looking at them different as Fort Valley or anything like that. We raised our level of intensity this week, but we look at it as any other game."

For both schools, the final Saturday of the regular season is always circled on the calendar.
