TONIGHTS GAMEWho: Benedict vs. Bowie State
When: 8 p.m.
Where: Charlie W. Johnson Stadium
TV: CBS Sports Network (Time Warner Cable channel 537)
COLUMBIA, South Carolina - The last time Benedict was in the national television spotlight, the Tigers were humiliated at Charlie W. Johnson Stadium by SIAC rival Fort Valley State.
Four days after that 40-23 Thursday night debacle to an 0-3 team on Comcast SportsNet, James Woody was hired to replace Stan Conner.
Benedict gets a chance at redemption in the spotlight tonight in its home opener against Bowie State. It is one of six NCAA Division II games scheduled for broadcast this season on the CBS Sports Network.
“This is a great honor, and a great opportunity for our young football team,” said Woody, who is 1-6 since taking over for Conner. “I think this shows that Benedict is doing great things. It’s great exposure for our students, our alumni and our fans. Hopefully, we can pack the stadium and create some excitement that our team can feed off.”
