Interesting range of musical influences in that track.

I'd say Southern Rock was related to country as it is to blues, perhaps more blues based but there is often a country influence too.
I wouldn't call the Eagles Southern Rock. They had a very West coast sound & they fit neatly into Country Rock though they moved a bit away from country later.

As to Lynyrd Skynyrd, there was a country multi-artiste tribute album to Lyn yrd Skynyrd came out in the Nineties in which Skynyrd also took part(I think).
There was also a country tribute to the Eagles-Common Threads- at about the same time which the Eagles took part in
