JACKSON- The Millsaps Majors are ranked #24 in the latest American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) poll released on Monday. 

It is the first national ranking of the year for the Majors who have been receiving votes in the D3football poll for several weeks. 

Millsaps improved to 6-0 on Saturday with a 28-14 victory over rival Birmingham Southern. The Majors rushed for 299 yards, 264 by running back Mike Barthelemy who scored all four of the Major touchdowns. 

The Majors will put that #24 ranking and 6-0 mark on the line as they travel to Sewanee to take on the Tigers this Saturday. Last season, the Majors defeated the University of the South 42-28 in Tennessee.
