The Eagles defeated archrival N.C. A&T in a 21-16 thriller before a near sellout crowd at Aggie Stadium.
The victory was a replay of last season’s matchup, where NCCU (8-3) upset the nationally-ranked Aggies (9-2) in Durham for a share of the title.
The Eagles’ postseason future hinged on the outcome of the Bethune-Cookman-Florida A&M game. A Bethune win creates a three-way tie among the Eagles, Aggies and Wildcats, and would give N.C. A&T the top seed and a trip to the ESPN inaugural Celebration Bowl and end the Eagles season.
A Bethune loss would have given NCCU the top seed and a trip to the Celebration Bowl. But the Wildcats defeated FAMU 35-14.
