Presbyterian 7, Fayetteville State 6

September 9, 2006

Fayetteville, NC – Fayetteville State University and coach Kenny Phillips still have their woes against the South Atlantic Conference teams and Saturday's contest was no different as Presbyterian edged the Broncos, 7-6. After battling tooth and nail for three quarters, Blue Hose quarterback Mitch Doolittle found Justin Durant open for a six-yard touchdown pass with 14:50 on the clock to put an end to FSU's upset bid over 11th ranked regional team.

For nearly four quarters it looked as if the Broncos were going to prove the pollsters wrong. Jonathan Autry engineered a three-play, 55-yard drive with a 35-yard pass to receiver Charlie Nieves to take a 6-0 lead. The kick by Eric Lamourex was blocked and the score remained in favor of the Broncos until early in the 4th quarter when Doolittle's pass ended all dreams.

Carl Stevenson's kick was good but and offside penalty gave FSU new life. His second attempt was also good and out went the lights.
