What’s at stake

North Carolina A&T

  • North Carolina A&T won four Celebration Bowl titles and reached an undefeated season just years ago. The Aggies are rebuilding after conference realignment cost them their MEAC identity and recent dominance, but the program carries HBCU pride and the knowledge of what it means to compete for national championships.

Morgan State

  • Morgan State is the HBCU champion—the first Black college to win a national title (1974)—whose claim to Black football excellence keeps climbing despite a brutal 2025 season.
