Alcorn State Braves Look To Keep Rolling Saturday Against Alabama State on Homecoming

LORMAN, Mississippi -- A series of winning-streaks are on the line Saturday for the Alcorn State University football program when it hosts Alabama State at 2 p.m. at Jack Spinks-Marino Casem Stadium on Homecoming.

Alcorn (4-1, 2-0 SWAC) is riding a four-game winning-streak and is looking to win five in a row for the first time since 2003. The Braves are seeking a 3-0 start in conference for the second straight year. Additionally, Alcorn is on a six-game home winning-streak which carried over from last season.

The Braves will be taking on a rested ASU (1-3, 0-1 SWAC) squad that is coming off a bye week. It marks the second time in three weeks that Alcorn is facing a team off a bye after it traveled to Mississippi Valley State for its home-opener; the Braves won the game 56-20.

Alcorn Game Notes | Alabama State Game Notes | Braves All-Access | Live Radio | Live Stats

The Braves are coming off a 20-3 win over Southern to spoil its Homecoming last weekend. The Alcorn defense limited the Jaguars to just 139 yards of offense, including 76 passing and 63 rushing yards.

Alcorn's defense ranks top-five in the FCS in yards, allowing just 242.4 per game. The Braves are also No. 6 in passing defense (142.8 ypg) and red zone defense (.583), 11th in scoring defense (15.8 ppg), 12th in rushing defense (99.6 ypg) and 19th in opponent third down conversions (.296).

Offensively, Alcorn leads the SWAC in scoring (36.2 ppg) and rushing (261.4 ypg). The Braves have scored on 95.2 percent of their red zone trips which is sixth in the nation. Junior Noah Johnson leads the SWAC and ranks top-10 in the country in completion percentage (.686).

Johnson has thrown for 798 yards and five touchdowns this season, and has rushed for 354 yards and five touchdowns. He ranks second in the SWAC in total offense with 230.4 yards per game.

Senior PJ Simmons, the SWAC Preseason Offensive Player of the Year, is third in the conference in rushing with 82.4 yards per outing. He's totaled 412 yards and three touchdowns this year.

The bye week came at a good time for Alabama State after the Hornets were banged up after their 34-0 defeat to Grambling State. ASU opened the season with a 26-20 victory over Tuskegee but is looking to snap a three-game skid.

The defense has been the strength of the Hornets this year as they rank second in the league, only behind Alcorn, giving up 370.2 yards per game. Kurron Ramsey averages 7.0 tackles per game, while Joshua Hill averages 6.3.

Offensively, Darryl Pearson has taken nearly every snap at quarterback and has thrown for 572 yards, two touchdowns and four interceptions. Ezra Gray has carried the bulk of the ground game and has tallied 212 rushing yards and a touchdown in four games.

Saturday's game can be seen with a subscription on Braves All-Access. It can also be heard live for free on wprl.org or 91.7 FM with Charles Edmond on the call.
