Based on the quality of performances we witnessed in HBCU halftime shows from the past weekend, one wouldn’t think that it was only the first week of the college football season.
There were plenty of performances to consider, due in large part to the National Battle of the Bands exhibition in Houston.
But we wanted to keep the focus on those shows that performed during the halftime of football games.
Here are the top five HBCU halftime shows from Week 1.
