EKU’s Football team rallied on Saturday to beat a nationally ranked Central Arkansas team on Homecoming. 

After leading much of the game, EKU found itself down by four points with just over a minute to go in the game.  A last minute effort, aided by two personal foul penalties, put the Colonels in a position to win the contest against Central Arkansas.  Backup

Quarterback Dakato Allen found Matt Wilcox with a touchdown pass with six seconds left in the game to give Eastern an exciting 31-28 victory.  Eastern has an off week before hosting another highly touted Stephen F. Austin team on November seventh.?
