ALBANY, Georgia — It’s homecoming at Albany State and among the traditions and the festivities comes the game.The Albany State football team, which sits at 2-3, has come to create a tradition of their own when it comes to playing today’s visiting Morehouse Tigers.
The Rams and Maroon Tigers will meet for the 35th time. Albany State leads the series 27-7-0 and has won the last six meetings. The two programs played in 2014 and Albany State won 31-14.
