This Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) matchup is pivotal in terms of keeping the Golden Tigers in the hunt for defending its West Division crown. TU enters Saturday's game with a 4-3 record overall and a 2-1 mark in league play. KSU on the other hand is in search of its first win of the season, sitting at 0-7 and 0-3 in the conference. While Kentucky State leads the overall series with Tuskegee 15-13, the Golden Tigers have won five of the last six meetings and has outscored the Thorobreds 185-74.
"We are extremely excited the CW Network elected to broadcast our annual homecoming game". Head football coach and director of athletics Willie Slater said. "The opportunity to have the name Tuskegee University mentioned in nearly 500,000 households each day in our local market, offers not only the football program, but the entire school tons of exposure".
