Thanks for the heads-up on the schedule change. I work real hard in my business to avoid scheduling any work that conflicts with A&T Football so I will make sure September 27th is clear on my calendar. Go Aggies!

This is a night game so the Morgan band would probably have to spend the night if they performed at this game. That would be rather expensive (hotel rooms and food) so I don't expect them to show up for this game. HBCU band budgets are tight and this would be an added, unplanned expense. Since most TV broadcasts don't show much of the halftime shows anyway, Morgan's band would not even get on TV for their efforts. |

MSU game in B'more every year ;D I just wish the Blue & Gold Marching Machine would invade Hughes Stadium (Beautiful & Nice Acoustics) one year to show out, "THE LEGION" sounds great there and no doubt The Blue & Gold Marching Machine would sound great as well!

Who makes this decision, A&T or the conference and ESPN If you are talking about game times and who actually gets to be on ESPN, the network controls all of that. If you are talking about the band, I guess its up to the individual schools. |

It's an outstanding move to put this game on a Thursday night. The MSU game only draws about 9,000 - 11,000 so we can probably do even better with some good marketing and promotions. Besides we still have six other Saturday home games for those who don't like it.
