Alabama State (4-5, 3-4 Southwestern Athletic Conference) tied it at 21 early in the fourth quarter when Daniel Duhart connected with Wyndell Archie on a 31-yard touchdown pass.
Southern (6-3, 5-1) has won four straight, but couldn't gain ground on West Division leader Grambling State, which beat Texas Southern on Saturday night.
