SWAC Question
Given that Jackson State won the SWAC (with its inherent berth in the Celebration Bowl against MEAC Champ SC State) and SWAC #2 Florida A&M earned a playoff berth, is the question that the SWAC CHAMP is required to go to the Celebration Bowl, or that SOME SWAC team must go? Could Jackson State have chosen the playoffs, leaving the SWAC to send FAMU to the Celebration Bowl? How would that have affected relations? Does dal have something to say about this?

Re: SWAC Question
This year, anyway, that does bring up the question of whether or not Jackson State would do better in the playoffs than FAMU. FAMU does have a bit of history on its side, even if it's just for a round or two. But Coach Prime DOES have Jackson State playing very well this year....dbackjon wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 1:12 pmSWAC Champ is required to go to the Celebration BowlSuperHornet wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 1:12 pm Given that Jackson State won the SWAC (with its inherent berth in the Celebration Bowl against MEAC Champ SC State) and SWAC #2 Florida A&M earned a playoff berth, is the question that the SWAC CHAMP is required to go to the Celebration Bowl, or that SOME SWAC team must go?

FAMU has a Natty, a lot of proud programs can't say that.SuperHornet wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 1:17 pmThis year, anyway, that does bring up the question of whether or not Jackson State would do better in the playoffs than FAMU.

Re: SWAC Question
Jackson State has not won the SWAC championship, they won the east division and face west division champ Prairie View on Dec.4th. Winner of that will go the the Celebration Bowl to take on MEAC Champ South Carolina StateSuperHornet wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 1:12 pm Given that Jackson State won the SWAC (with its inherent berth in the Celebration Bowl against MEAC Champ SC State) and SWAC #2 Florida A&M earned a playoff berth, is the question that the SWAC CHAMP is required to go to the Celebration Bowl, or that SOME SWAC team must go?

Re: SWAC Question
Technically, they would be SWAC #3, because the SWAC East and West division champs are both ineligible for the playoffs because of the SWAC title game being after the playoffs start.SuperHornet wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 1:12 pm Given that Jackson State won the SWAC (with its inherent berth in the Celebration Bowl against MEAC Champ SC State) and SWAC #2 Florida A&M earned a playoff berth, is the question that the SWAC CHAMP is required to go to the Celebration Bowl, or that SOME SWAC team must go?

Re: SWAC Question
Now that JSU got smoked this will do wonders for SCSU for recruiting purposes.They have signed a 6'4 QB Andre Washington to give some juice to their passing attack.I wonder what SCSU would have done in the FCS PLAYOFFS vs Southeastern Louisiana and its pass happy attack.GAD_SU wrote: ↑Thu Nov 25, 2021 6:42 amJackson State has not won the SWAC championship, they won the east division and face west division champ Prairie View on Dec.4th.

I love that JSU got beaten by a really mediocre SCST after all this hype last week.

Re: SWAC Question
Those 3 FBS losses to start the season, really skewed their record.
