  11/27/21 - Avante Cox, rSr/2023, Southern Illinois, 5-09, 192 (DS#147 WR) + More +

  Avante Cox had a career-high 10 receptions for 148 yards and a touchdown, Romeir Elliott scored on a 5-yard run midway through the fourth quarter and Southern Illinois beat South Dakota 22-10 on Saturday night in the first round of the FCS playoffs. Southern Illinois improved to 4-3 all-time against the Coyotes. Despite both teams being in the Missouri Valley Football Conference, the programs hadn't faced off since the Salukis won 48-28 at South Dakota in 2019. The Salukis (8-4), ranked No. 23 in the FCS coaches poll, plays at third-ranked and No. 2 seed North Dakota State — another MVC member — next Saturday. Southern Illinois won its last meeting with the Bison 38-14 on Feb. 27, ending NDSU's 39-game win streak. Southern Illinois scored on drives of 14, 15 and 16 plays in the first half to take a 13-0 lead into the break.

Nico Gualdoni made a 50-yard field goal to cap a 30-yard drive and open the scoring midway through the first quarter, an 85-yard drive culminated when Cox caught a wide-open 4-yard TD pass with 8:04 left in the second quarter and the Salukis marched 83 yards before Gualdoni kicked a 26-yard field goal as time expired in the first half. SIU's Qua Brown, a sixth-year senior who went into the game with two career interceptions, picked off two passes in Salukis territory. On the opening possession, Carson Camp sailed a pass over the middle intended for Caleb Vander Esch that Brown intercepted at the 26 and Brown undercut a back-shoulder pass at the 1 to preserve a 16-3 lead late in the third quarter. Camp, who went into the game having thrown just four interceptions this season, was picked off a third time when Clayton Bush intercepted a pass on third-and-17 with 5:29 to play. - Southern Illinois/AP College Football

  2021 OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCE FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR (COACHES): DJ Williams (QB), Murray State,...Williams started the season as Murray State's backup quarterback by was forced into duty in the fifth game of the season due to an injury to the starter. In that game against nationally-ranked UT Martin, Williams had 210 yards of total offense and a touchdown off the bench. The following week he earned his first career start at Southeast Missouri and helped the Racers overcome a 15-point second half deficit to win 32-31 and earn OVC Offensive Player of the Week honors. Williams accounted for 321 yards of total offense and three touchdowns in that win.

In the team's second meeting of the season with SEMO (Nov. 13), Williams was named National Freshman of the Week by Stats Perform after tallying 296 yards of total offense and two touchdowns. In that game he scored on a 58-yard rush and added a 73-yard completion (the ninth-longest in program history). Williams finished the season with 1,020 passing yards and three touchdowns through the air while rushing for 532 yards (6.4 yards/carry) and six scores on the ground. Since the award was first bestowed in 2004, Williams is the second Murray State player to be named OVC Freshman of the Year, joining quarterback Jeff Ehrhardt (2007). He is the 12th quarterback to win the honor in 18 years. - Ohio Valley Conference Football

  Nico Gualdoni kicked a career-long 46-yard, game-winning field goal with 5:21 remaining and Southern Illinois fended off North Dakota 31-28 in a Missouri Valley Football Conference showdown on Saturday. The Salukis (6-1, 4-0), ranked No. 4 in the FCS coaches poll, are off to their best start since the 2009 season but had to fight out of two ties late in the game. North Dakota had knotted the contest at 21-21 before Nic Baker found Izaiah Hartrup wide open over the middle for a 58-yard touchdown with 3:33 left in the third quarter.

Baker was 13-for-16 passing for 177 yards with three touchdowns. Hartrup gained 91 yards on four catches. The Fighting Hawks (2-4, 0-3) tied again at 28-28 midway through the final period on Isaiah Smith's run from the 3-yard line. Smith carried 17 times for 111 yards. Donnavan Spencer broke loose for a 48-yard run to set up Gualdoni's winning kick two minutes later. North Dakota's Brady Stevens missed field goal tries of 36 and 47 yards on the Fighting Hawks' final two possessions. North Dakota, No. 24 in the coaches poll, was playing without running back Otis Weah, who did not make the trip because of illness. - AP College Football
