TUSKEGEE, Alabama -- A 9-2 season would be cause for celebration for many college football teams.
That's not the case at Tuskegee. Heavy favorites to win a fifth straight Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship in 2010, the Golden Tigers finished in a three-way tie for second after losing games to conference rivals Albany State and Fort Valley State.

SIAC coaches have picked the Golden Tigers to win the SIAC West and play Albany State in the league's inaugural championship game. That game will be played Nov. 12 in Atlanta. Tuskegee coach Willie Slater said he doesn't worry about expectations for his football team.
