Ram Ramblings: Virginia State-Bowie State is game of the year in CIAA

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- There’s little doubt about the game of the week in the CIAA.

No. 14 Bowie State will travel to take on Virginia State in a battle of unbeatens. It’s a game that could likely decide the Northern Division champion even though there are four weeks left in the season.

One reason I’ve taken more of an interest in this game is because I’ve seen both of them play, and I’ve seen both of them beat Winston-Salem State.

The good thing for those who can’t make it to the game is it will be on Aspire TV, a channel that not a lot of cable companies carry. But at least it will be on TV somewhere.

The game is slated for Ettrick, Va. at 2 p.m. on Saturday. It’s Virginia State’s homecoming but with what’s at stake homecoming kind of takes a back seat to what will be happening on the field.

Coach Damon Wilson of the Bulldogs, who has seen plenty in his time in the CIAA, said it’s a big game and he knows it will be a close one.
