BALTIMORE, Maryland -- There's a sense of dread hovering over Morgan State football coach Lee Hull, but it has little to do with Richmond, his team's opponent in its first Football Championship Subdivision playoff game in school history."I still think I'm dreaming and that somebody is going to wake me up and say that this has all been a cruel joke," Hull said. "But it's great. It's a great feeling."
As the Bears (7-5) prepare to meet the Spiders (8-4) in Saturday's first-round game at Robins Stadium in Richmond at 1 p.m., excitement surrounding the program's success has grown immensely.
Tickets for the 8,700-seat stadium have been sold out, at least two busloads of students will depart from Morgan State's campus, and athletic director Floyd Kerr's phone hasn't stopped ringing since Saturday when the team captured a share of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference title and earned the league's automatic berth in the postseason.
