MONTICELLO – Fourth-year head football coach Gwaine Mathews is encouraging fans to wear green clothing in hopes of creating a “Green Out” of Convoy-Leslie Cotton Boll Stadium for Thursday night’s Gulf South Conference game against West Georgia.
 
“We are off to our best start in years and are eyeing the Gulf South Conference crown,” said Mathews. “Please wear green, and show the South region how much support and pride you have for the Weevils.”
 
The game is going to be shown live throughout eight states of the South region of the United States as a part of the Gulf South Conference-TV Live Game of the Week package produced by Comcast Sports Southeast in partnership with Cox Sports Television.
 
“Not only is this great for our fans across the region to be able to see us play without having to travel a long distance, but it also helps our recruiting tremendously,” said Mathews. “Not only can our recruits throughout the region watch us play, but it also gives us, as coaches, an opportunity to prove to them that they have a chance of playing on live television if they decide to be a Weevil.”
 
In Monticello, the game will be available on Cablevision channel 31 (Cox Sports Television). The game is also available live on the radio at KHBM-FM 93.7, which will be streamed live over the Internet at uamsports.com.
 
Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
