Tennessee State 33, Austin Peay 32

CLARKSVILLE, TN -- Tennessee State's Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie blocked a kick in overtime helping his team to a 33-32 victory over Austin Peay on Saturday.

Austin Peay (2-1, 0-1) needed only three plays to reach the end zone on its first possession of overtime. Mark Cunningham rolled right and connected a 12-yard pass to Terrence Holt.

Chris Fletcher used the next two plays to power his way into the end zone. But Isaac Ziolkowski's kick was blocked by Rodgers-Cromartie.

Tennessee State (2-1, 1-0 ) then methodically drove to the two-yard line where Javarris Williams pounded the ball over the goal line. The victory was sealed when Eric Benson's PAT sailed through the uprights.
