# Howard, Morehouse to resume rivalry at HBCUNY Classic

Morehouse visited Howard University’s campus for a renewal of their rivalry in 2023. This coming season, the two teams will meet again, but on neutral ground. According to a report by Kyle T.

The Bison defeated Morehouse 65-19 at Greene Stadium on September 9, part of a 6-6 season that included Howard’s first MEAC championship since 1993 and a trip to the Cricket Celebration Bowl, where they fell short to Southwestern Athletic Conference champion Florida A&M 30-26. The Maroon Tigers finished 1-9 in their only season under alumnus Gerard Wilcher, who was fired just eight months after being hired as head coach. He was replaced by former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver and one-time Savannah State offensive coordinator Terence Mathis.
