I don't know if anyone on here cares about this game, but NC A&T just took back the opening punt for a score to make it 7-0.

A matchup of two FCS conferences that can't compete in the FCS. :tothehand:

But I have to hand it to them that they figured out a way to capitalize on the "bowl" exposure.

Now 7-6 after Alcorn gets a long punt return TD of their own. PAT botched.

Hey, their reasons for not joining the playoffs still make a lot more rational sense than the Ivy League's.

Tarik Cohen with a 74-yard, really well-blocked TD run. 14-6 Aggies.

The repeated reference to this as a "National Championship" is pathetic.

I was impressed with the level of play...if not the decision-making. Had A&T not allowed Cohen to skip out on breakfast, this could have been a thrashing. The offenses on BOTH sides got a bit too cute down near the end, and it cost Alcorn. It ALMOST cost A&T. Just give it to Cohen and bleed that clock....

:roll:

No dog in the fight lol just throwing out the ticket sale numbers.

Its definitely a niche marketed event, and will be sucessful for all three parties involved.

Still want to see DSU in the NEC tho...but that won't happen. So I'm just resigned to my fate :(
