Alabama A&M and Tuskegee are finally getting back together in football - only the field is three states away. A&M and Tuskegee play today in the 25th annual Circle City Classic in Indianapolis at the new Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Colts. It's the first time the teams have met since an A&M 54-0 victory in 1999. The game kicks off at 3 p.m. and the NFL Network will televise it. The Division II Tigers are riding a 20-game win streak, including a 4-0 mark this season, and are ranked 11th in the nation. The I-AA Bulldogs are 2-3 and enjoying a modest two-game winning streak.
"It's an exciting venue," A&M head coach Anthony Jones said. "We haven't played there since 2002, but every time I've been associated with it it's always been a great college football game.
"With two teams from the state of Alabama who have a rich history, it almost can't get any bigger than this." A&M leads the series that started in 1932, but ended soon after the Bulldogs left Division II, 23-18-4, according to the school. TU scores the series 22-19-3, still A&M's way.
