Carolina Football Classic
 

If anyone is interested:

This year the Battle of the Borders will take place at my Alma Mater South Carolina State University in Orangeburg South Carolina on November 17th at 1:00 p.m.!!!:D

Hhhhmmm...if that is true (not that I doubt you), I wonder why the website isn't updated to reflect that?:confused: Do you know? What's going on? I was wondering why two North Carolina schools were competing. That wouldn't be much of a "border battle".

What's up Diamond007? I'm a 1994 graduate of SC State University. My husband and I JUST returned from the homecoming activities that took place on last weekend. It's good to see a fellow Bulldog present on GC. GOOOOO BULLDOGS!!!!

Carolina's classic
 

hi. It was reported earlier this year that the 100 Black Men of Charlotte had already paid for the stadium or something to that matter, so they HAD to get two teams to play in the game on this specific weekend. The usual A&T SCSU game wasn't going to work b/c A&T plays Jackson State that weekend (Peach State Classic, GA Dome)... so they booked JCSU and NCCU (eagle pride!!!!) to continue the Classic. I'll post a link to the article if i can find it.

BTW, i'm new to GC. I've been reading the boards silently for a while, but this is my 1st post. :)

Well let me be the first to say welcome to GC. I hope that you post often.:D

Battle of the Border
 

The battle of the border is usually the weekend before Thanksgiving and per my alumni newsletter there was a scheduling conflict with the Carolina Panters so the Carolina Classic had to be rescheduled for Nov. 4th with two different teams since A&T will be in Atlanta. A&T will still be playing SCSC but it will be at SCSU.

AGGIE PRIDE!!

Thank you!
 

Welcome to GC!:)

Thanks for explaining this for us. I was wondering what was going on.

Well All_smiles, you know how this thing with SCSU and A & T has gone on for years and years. We're all family, so it all good. At any rate, may the best team and band win---and we all KNOW that will be SOUTH CAROLINA STATE UNIVERSITY!!!! GOOOOO BULLDOGS!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D And remember: IF YOU CAN'T RUN WITH THE BIG DAWGS, THEN STAY ON THE PORCH!!!! :) :) :)

thanks!
 

thanks for the warm welcome, everyone. ;)
