THE GAME
Delaware State visits North Carolina A&T in a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) game. The Hornets have dropped their last four games to fall to 2-4 overall and -03 in the MEAC. DSU is coming off a 38-21 loss to league leading Norfolk State last weekend. The Hornets passed for 339 yards, but allowed 526 total yards in the contest. Surprising North Carolina A&T is riding a two-game win streak. The Aggies improved to 3-2 overall and 2-0 in the MEAC after a 22-3 win over Bethune-Cookman last Saturday. The Aggies have allowed just six points on two field goals in their last two games. This is Delaware State's first visit to NCA&T since 2007.

THE SERIES 
This will be the 40th on-the-field meeting between the Hornets and Aggies. Delaware State has won the last six times the teams have played to open up a 20-19-1 series lead. The teams did not meet in 2009, although North Carolina A&T was awarded a victory due to a Delaware State forfeit.  The teams met in 2010 at DSU. The Hornets came from behind to win 31-26. Jaashawn Jones rushed for a career-high 144 yards and a touchdown and Justin Wilson had two TD catches to lead the Hornets, who trailed 14-6 before scoring 19 unanswered points to take control. Prior to the 2009 forfeit, North Carolina A&T's most recent victory over the Hornets was in 2003 (33-7 in Greensboro, N.C.).
