NORFOLK, Virginia  -- Norfolk State’s football games against Hampton and Bethune-Cookman will be televised as part of the MEAC’s TV package with ESPNU, the conference announced Thursday.
NSU’s home game against Bethune-Cookman, originally scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 8, has been moved to Thursday, Nov. 6, to accommodate a live ESPNU telecast from Dick Price Stadium. The game will kick off at 7:30 p.m. and also will be streamed live on ESPN3.com.
The annual Battle of the Bay game between the Spartans and Hampton on Saturday, Oct. 18, will be broadcast live on ESPN3.com and tape-delayed on ESPNU. The game will kick off at 1 p.m., as originally scheduled, at HU’s Armstrong Stadium, with the tape-delayed time to be announced.
The two ESPNU games are NSU’s first since Sept. 15, 2012, when the Spartans fell to Howard 37-36 in overtime at home. NSU is 4-8 in games carried on the ESPN family of networks and 0-2 in Thursday night games.
