For the SWAC, it’s a signature event that almost didn’t happen.
But some determined administrators saw to it that the SWAC championship football game remained a reality.
The annual showdown between the champions of the Eastern and Western divisions took a historic step on Saturday when the game — for the first time — was played on the campus of a member institution.
Alcorn State hosted Southern in a contest that lived to the hype. The Braves won the game 37-28 to advance to the Celebration Bowl in Atlanta to face North Carolina A&T on Dec. 15.
Then there was the halftime show between the Alcorn State’s ‘Sounds of Dyn-o-mite’ and the ‘Human Jukebox’ of Southern.
There was no score to determine a winner, but we’ve provided a poll that may give some perspective. Which band won the halftime show, Southern or Alcorn State?
Watch the videos of both halftime shows and then cast your vote below.
