GREENSBORO, N.C. — A 27-game losing streak and 30-75 record since last winning the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference title in 2003 is no longer a topic of discussion at North Carolina A&T.
An 11-game losing streak to arch-rival South Carolina State and, more importantly, two seasons of NCAA probation for low Academic Progress Rate scores, are also in the past for the Aggies. What’s relevant now to the players and fan base is a 3-0 overall record with victories over Southern Conference opponents Appalachian State and Elon University and MEAC foe Howard and the third-longest active winning streak in Football Championship Subdivision play (7) dating back to last season.
