(Stats Perform) - Austin Peay's Brian Snead set the NCAA Division I FCS record for rushing yards in a quarter with 204 in the first quarter of a 27-20 win over Tennessee State on Sunday. The redshirt sophomore rushed for 75-, 67- and 44-yard touchdowns on Austin Peay's first four plays of a rainy Ohio Valley Conference contest. He had six carries in the quarter, gaining 15, 3 and 0 yards on the final three. Snead surpassed the record that was held by Nevada's Otto Kelly with 194 yards on eight carries in the third quarter of a Nov. 12, 1983 game against Idaho. Snead finished the game with 23 carries for 227 yards, the third-highest single-game total in Austin Peay history.
