NOTEBOOK



Tuskegee earned a 33-7 win over Jackson State in last week's 5th Quarter Classic in Mobile. Tuskegee has now won four of its last five games and three in a row heading into Saturday's SIAC West game against Kentucky State. ... The Tigers will be looking to avenge last year's 10-9 loss to the Thorobreds, which knocked them out of SIAC title contention. Kentucky State blocked a potential game-tying extra point attempt and a potential game-winning field goal in the final two minutes. Kentucky State now leads the all-time series 15-12. ... The Thorobreds, who have their homecoming this week, are coming off a 35-0 loss to Miles last Saturday. KSU has lost three straight games. ... Kentucky State running back Brett Sylve rushed for 107 yards against Miles. Sylve is fourth in the SIAC at 94.4 rushing yards per game. ... The game matches the two worst scoring offenses in the SIAC. Tuskegee is ninth at 19.3 points per game while Kentucky State is last at 18.4 points per game.
