S.C. State aims for co-MEAC championship
ORANGEBURG, South Carolina -- Points will most likely be at a premium today at Oliver C. Dawson Stadium, where two of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference’s best meet in the season finale for both teams.
S.C. State, allowing just 20.9 points per game, ranks third in the league in scoring defense. Meanwhile, Norfolk State is second, allowing just 16.5 points per game.
“The best defense we’ve played all year; that kind of says it all,” S.C. State Coach Buddy Pough said. “They match up very, very badly for us, when you take that defense and put it against our offense.”
And the Bulldogs (7-4, 5-2) catch the Spartans (4-7, 4-3) on the heels of one of S.C. State’s poorest offensive performances of Pough’s 13-year tenure as coach. The team managed just 207 total yards in last week’s 24-21 loss at Morgan State.
