“As we enter HBCU GO’s third football season, we are proud to showcase the very best HBCU matchups,” Allen Media Group founder Byron Allen said in a statement. “Now is the time for HBCUs, and HBCU GO is the true destination for coverage of Black college sports and culture.”
“HBCU GO is poised to deliver the most comprehensive HBCU football game coverage ever to our audience,” ads HBCU Go president Curtis Symonds. “We have 26 exciting matchups on our slate this season, including the Southern Heritage Classic, six homecoming games, and the CIAA Football Championship.”
HBCU Go’s coverage begins Saturday, Aug. 31, with a doubleheader featuring new-look Clark Atlanta with new head coach Teddy Keaton against SIAC runner-up Fort Valley State at 1 p.m., then an inter-conference showdown with CIAA champion Virginia Union facing Kentucky State of the SIAC.
The Southern Heritage Classic features Tennessee State vs. Arkansas-Pine Bluff in Memphis on Sept. 14 and the CIAA championship game, which will now consist of the teams with the two best records as opposed to a North-South division format in years past, will be broadcast on Nov. 16.
