Junior Terrence Oliver, who has rushed for 140 yards this season and had nine pass catches a week ago, will move into the starting role against Murray State. Redshirt freshman Reco Williams, who had 45 yards in his first extensive APSU action at Eastern Illinois, will serve as the backup.

Christophel will have no further comments regarding the suspension.
