Arkansas-Pine Bluff will be playing for a place in history as well as its first conference title Saturday when the Golden Lions face Jackson State in the SWAC Championship Game at Legion Field in Birmingham, Ala.
The Golden Lions (9-2, 8-1 SWAC), champions of the West Division, will register the first 10-win season in school history with a victory.
“That’s definitely a carrot that’s in our sights,’’ UAPB coach Monte Coleman says.
The Golden Lions won nine games in 1994 while playing as an NAIA independent and again in 2006 when they made their first appearance in the SWAC Championship game and lost to Alabama A&M. They also had a nine-win season in 1990, but the NAIA forced the Golden Lions to forfeit those victories because of rules violation that resulted in the football program receiving the death penalty.

Notre Dame to move the ACC from Big East; $5 Million Penalty is Cheap
Notre Dame has decided that it will now play all sports excluding football in the ACC, not the Big East. The Big East is requiring the Fightin' Irish to pay a $5 million dollar penalty, when both Syracuse and Pittsburgh payed $7.5 million dollars after a negotiating to join the ACC also. They will start in June of 2013.
The football program will remain an independent. The school tried to align the football program with the Big 10 back in 1999, but the alumni base would not have it. Besides, why turn down a lucrative deal with NBC?
