The Maroon Tigers will blow into the Windy City, Friday, looking to repeat last season's win over the Central State Marauders, in the Chicago Football Classic.
Last year, Morehouse beat CSU 42-20, for the first win of the season, in front of more than 32,000, at Soldier Field. Saturday's game will again be played at the legendary home of the Chicago Bears, at 3 p.m. (CDT)
Morehouse hopes to get its first conference win of the season, after losing last week to Howard, at RFK Stadium, in Washington, DC. The Tigers opened the season with a 31-16 win over Edward Waters College, in Jacksonville, FL.
The Marauders are coming off of a 30-16 loss to Texas Southern, in the inaugural HBCUX Classic, in Nassau, Bahamas. In week one, CSU beat Clark Atlanta 28-18, in Wilberforce, OH.
Next week, the Maroon Tigers continue on the road against Paine College in Augusta, GA. Paine is resuming football this season after a nearly 50 year hiatus. Kickoff is scheduled for 2 p.m.
