CASEY CRIGGER | APSU ATHLETICS
The Governors “fearless, fast, physical” style of offense seemingly hit a wall in their conference opening game to Tennessee Tech, falling 27-21 in Cookeville, Tenn.
Even with a stifling defensive effort that allowed under 175 yards and accounted for a program-record seven sacks on the afternoon, a quartet of turnovers and three failed fourth down conversions was the deciding factor in the team’s loss to the Golden Eagles.
After APSU’s inaugural drive stalled, a snap to punter Matthew Rigney sailed over his head, forcing the Australian to fall on the ball at the 18 yard line of the Govs.

Walden has brought in a haul of former colleagues to his first FCS coaching staff. The coach added eight new assistant coaches to help guide the Govs through their spring slate of games, five of which previously coaching alongside or playing for the 31-year-old. Here is what you need to know about each of the seven new faces coming to the sidelines in Clarksville.
