COLUMBIA, South Carolina  --  Three home games and three Classics highlight the 2013 Benedict College tentative football schedule, it was announced by the school.

The Tigers open the season on Sept. 7 in the Ohio Classic in Dayton, Ohio, where they will face Central State University, the alma mater of Benedict head coach James Woody.

The following week, Benedict will travel to Ettrick, Va., to take on Virginia State University in a non-conference game.

On Sept. 21, Benedict and South Carolina State will renew their interstate rivalry when they meet in the Palmetto Capital City Classic at Williams Brice Stadium. The Tigers and Bulldogs last played each other in 2010.

The Tigers will face Fort Valley State University on Sept. 28 in the Augusta City Classic in Augusta, Ga.

The Tigers will play their first home game in Charlie W. Johnson Stadium on Oct. 5, hosting Miles College. That game is designated Church, Family, Community and Greek Day.

Benedict is on the road again on Oct. 12 to face Stillman College in Tuscaloosa, Ala.

Homecoming is set for Oct. 19, when the Tigers will host Clark Atlanta University.

Two road games follow, with Benedict at Morehouse College on Oct. 26 and at Albany State University on Nov. 2.
