INDIANAPOLIS, IN -- Five weeks in to the 2011 Albany State football year and the Golden Rams have their first complete victory of the season.

ASU clicked in all facets of the game defeating Kentucky State 57-31 in the 28th Annual Circle City Classic from Indianapolis. The Golden Rams led at the half 29-13, and blew it open in the fourth quarter with two touchdowns from unexpected outlets.

Rams cornerback Brandon Brown returned an interception 34 yards for a touchdown in the first minute of the fourth quarter. The Rams immediately gave up a 91 yard kick-off return for a touchdown before Orion Ponder responded with an 89 yard touchdown return.

The reigning SIAC Offensive Player of the Week Stanley Jennings only completed 9-27 passes, but tallied three touchdowns and 180 yards in the 26 point win.
