Magic City Classic: ASU Hornets Back on the Practice Field

MONTGOMERY, Alabama  -- After taking a couple of days off following Alabama State's 48-42 overtime win over Prairie View, the Hornets took the practice field for a Tuesday practice to begin preparations for Alabama A&M.

The Hornets have a week off and will have a shortened practice week with practices scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday at 11 a.m.

The off week could not have come at a better time for ASU as the Hornets are hoping to nurse several players back to health in order to have them back on the field against the Bulldogs.

"People say all the time about their off week coming at the right time and it's the honest truth for us," Head Coach Reggie Barlow said. "Obviously we have guys we are hoping will be back for the Magic City Classic. This week we are not going to ask them to do much of anything but to continue rehab. I am expecting all of them to be back by the Magic City Classic."

The Magic City Classic is scheduled for kickoff at 2:30 p.m. and will be shown live on ESPN3 with a tape delay broadcast at 9:30 p.m. on ESPNU.
