Football game between Tennessee State and Morgan State at Nissan Stadium, part of Tennessee State University's 99th Annual Homecoming.
Tennessee State takes on Morgan State at Nissan Stadium on Saturday, October 17, with kickoff at 5:30 PM. It's a homecoming game for TSU, and the timing is part of a larger celebration that's been running all week.
The game is the centerpiece of Tennessee State University's 99th Annual Homecoming, which runs from October 11 to 17. This year's theme is 'The Big Blue Experience,' a nod to the school's colors and the nearly century of tradition behind it. The university is celebrating '99 years of Big Blue experience' throughout the week, so the game on the 17th is the culmination of several days of events leading up to it.
Nissan Stadium serves as the home of TSU football, so the Tigers are playing on their own turf for this one. Having the game there means the homecoming crowd is right where the team usually plays, rather than at a neutral site. The 5:30 PM start puts it in that late-afternoon window, and since it's a Saturday, it's a good spot for a full day of homecoming activities around it.
