Howard Bison and Morehouse Maroon Tigers Set to Clash in HBCU NY Classic
The Howard Bison and Morehouse Maroon Tigers will face off for the third time in four years at MetLife Stadium in the annual HBCU NY Classic. The game, scheduled for today, will be a showcase of talent and tradition between two iconic Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
Game Preview: Howard vs. Morehouse
Howard (1-1) enters the game as the favorite, having won the last seven meetings against Morehouse. However, they are coming off a heavy 55-7 defeat to Temple after narrowly defeating Florida A&M in their season opener. Quarterback Tyriq Starks will aim to improve the Bison offense after a lackluster performance last week. Morehouse (0-1), following a week off, hopes to rebound from their 45-9 loss to Johnson C. Smith. Quarterback Miles Scott, despite passing for 262 yards, will need to minimize turnovers after throwing three interceptions in the season opener.
